Hanauma Bay Nature Persevere is amazing. Arrive early! Parking is $1.00 and there are limited spaces. There is a cost to go into the preserve we paid $7.50/person. You do have to watch a short video about taking care and protecting the nature preserve. You can walk down to the water or for a fee take a tram. The walk really is not hard going down. There is a good hill you have to walk up when you leave the beach. You can rent snorkels, make, and fins at the beach or bring your own. The water was amazing, but is very packed! The farther out you swim the less people there are and you can see more animals. Close to the shore were tons of fish. If you are lucky and swim out farther you may even see a turtle.  We stayed for a short time only about 2 hours. Then left the crowed to find a calmer beach with less people. This place is amazing, but like I said a lot of people go there so it does get busy.
