Description

Underwater cave (waist level) boasting one of the most incredible natural formations befitting Hawaii’s reputation for island scenery.

Disclaimer: This cave can be dangerous depending on the tide. Low tide is a requirement for entering the cave. Do not enter the cave if the tide is not low; the tide can sweep you into the sharp rocks where injury can easily occur. You must also monitor the tide constantly as it can quickly change. This is also the west side of Oahu where theft has been regularly reported. Consider your belongings, proceed with caution and travel with a partner.
