The Hawaiian coastline is home to more than 1200 miles of coral reefs, which ensures that snorkeling and scuba diving is one of the most popular activities on the islands. One of the best dives sites can be found on the south shore of Molokai, where there is a stunning 28-mile reef which is teeming with marine life including rays, turtles and an abundance of reef fish. Other good dive sites include Shark’s Cove (north shore of Oahu) and the Molokini Crater off the shore of Maui. The islands are literally dotted with outfitters who are ready to take you to the best areas to dive or snorkel.
