About this site
This site off Sand Island offers a thrilling drift dive along a vibrant reef wall. Strong currents attract large schools of fish, including trevally and barracuda. The steep drop-off reveals colorful corals and frequent sightings of reef sharks. Visibility is excellent, often exceeding 100 feet. Divers may spot Hawaiian monk seals resting on sandy patches. The combination of abundant marine life and dynamic conditions makes this a must-dive spot in the Pacific.
