Snorkelling

Not too long after I experienced climbing Diamond Head volcano, I headed over to the complete opposite side of the island, hired some snorkelling gear and snorkelled through Waimea Bay. It was a beautiful day which made the water look incredibly nice. It took about 20 minutes to walk from the top of the mountain where the car park was, down into the bay itself. 

This was the view from the top, looking down into the bay. 

It is a very popular snorkelling location, as you can see.

We equipped ourselves with the snorkelling gear, and headed into the water. It was so clear, you could see everything. There was not as much sea life as I expected, but some of the fish were very pretty - although they were quite camera shy!

Snorkelling in a reef was an incredible experience and I would love to do it again.

I am very pleased I was able to tick this off the bucket list!
