These coordinates sit off the Kona coast of the Big Island of Hawaii, in the district of South Kona. The nearshore waters here are formed from lava flows that create swim-throughs, arches, and ledges typical of this volcanic coastline, reached by boat from harbors along the leeward side of the island.
