About this site
Nudi Madness lies off the Kona coast of the Big Island of Hawaii, along the island's west side facing the Pacific. It is a beginner dive with a maximum depth of around 9 metres, making it a shallow, easy site suited to divers of all experience levels. The Kona coast here is characterized by lava rock shoreline dropping into clear offshore waters, typical of this stretch of coastline.
