Wailea

★★★★☆ (416)

A great spot for intro dives as the water is calm. This dive site has multiple fingered shallow reefs with depths averaging around 15 feet. If you continue out father to the outer reef you can dive to 40 feet and beyond.

You’ll find quite a variety of reef fish out here with the occasional Hawaiian Green Sea turtles. Also, look for eels hidden among the reef.
