Aloha and welcome to HanaumaBaySnorkeling.Net… The #1 Resource for anything regarding Hawaii Snorkeling, Fun Activities, and of course, Snorkeling at Hanauma Bay!

Hanauma Bay is pronounced like “hana-OO-mah” in Hawaiian, and is one of the hottest tourist destinations on Oahu. Spending time here is affordable, fun, and is awe inspiring beautiful! During ancient Hawaiian times, only the royalty were allowed to come to Hanauma Bay. Now is your chance to visit the Beach of Kings whether you are snorkeling for your 1st or 50th time! Hanauma Bay is actually a submerged Volcanic Crater! Hundreds of Thousands of Years Ago the entire volcano blew up from it’s foundation and left a crater right near the ocean and below sea level. As a result, we now enjoy one of the most geographically protected marine sanctuaries in the world. Hana translates to ’bay’ and uma means ‘shelter.’

Hanauma Bay supports a large population of Green sea turtles, Parrot Fish, Puffers, Trumpet Fish, and of course Hawaii’s State Fish, the Humuhumunukunukuapuaa, or just Humu! And while the variety of marine life at Hanauma Bay is way to vast to even try to list, one fish you’re not gonna find are Sharks! The waters are too shallow at Hanauma Bay for sharks and bigger fish. So come out and experience one of the crowned jewels that Oahu has to offer with Hanauma Bay Snorkeling Tours!
