Scuba Diving in Hawaii, USA

Reader Reviews:

Dive Site: Paliea Point

Location: East Oahu

Description: Reef

Depth: 22 metres (72 feet)

Visibility: 20 metres (65 feet)

Rating: ****

Because of the windward location of this site, dives are often blown out here by strong winds. There is a crack through the reef which is very interesting. The rock underwater comprises of layered formations on a gradual slope. There are large pufferfish and trumpetfish, plus speckled butterflyfish and some good coral formations.
