About this site
Oceanarium is a dive site off the coast of Kauai in the Hawaiian Islands, in the Pacific waters surrounding this northernmost main island of the chain. Sites along Kauai's coastline are typically reached by boat from harbors such as Port Allen or Hanalei, depending on the season and swell direction. Divers here have reported coral growth including rice coral, blue rice coral, cauliflower coral, and spreading rice coral, along with reef fish such as dusky surgeonfish, pebbled butterflyfish, and saddle wrasse.
