Pyramid Pinnacle
★★★★☆
(143)
This is a beautiful, intermediate reef dive off the Kona coast of Hawaii. It gets its name from the pyramid butterflyfish that school around the reef. The submerged lava arches, caverns, pinnacles, and finger corals peppering this site offer plenty to explore.
Wildlife encounters are diverse here including resident conger eels, tons of reef fish, green sea turtles, cleaner shrimp, and lobsters, just to name a few.
