The Hawaiian Islands represent the perfect combination
of the familiar and the exotic. With convenient
air access from all around the Pacific Rim, a
well developed tourism infrastructure and an intoxicating
tropical splendor, this U.S. state is a magnet
for travelers of all kinds. But, its especially
popular with divers.

HAWAIIAN
ISLANDS
The chain of volcanic
islands that makes up Hawaii stretches more
than 1,000 miles through the warm, crystal-clear
waters of the open Pacific. Underwater offerings
feature elaborate bottom formations, encrusted
with corals, an abundance of colorful tropicals
and the ever present possibility of big
animal encounters, including Humpback Whales,
sea turtles, reef sharks, Pilot Whales and
dolphins.
Though excellent diving can be found throughout
the chain, the sites closer to the tourism
hot spots are, naturally, the most popular.
A few, brief examples include the Kona Coast
of the Big Island of Hawaii, where exceptionally
clear water meets the newest lava formations;
the Cathedrals, off Lanai, where the lava
chambers offer an almost religious experience;
Molokini Crater, where youll find
Black Coral and reef sharks; and the 165-foot
Mahi wreck, off Oahu.

MIDWAY
The Midway Islands
(famous for the naval/air battles of WW
II) are located at the northern tip of the
Hawaiian chain. Administered by the U.S.
Navy, they offer a unique twist on the underwater
offerings in this areaa taste of atoll
diving. This is the home of the rare Monk
Seal, and you will also find sharks, shallow
lagoons, barrier reefs and all of the endemic
Hawaiian fishes.
