We are going to show you our favorite shore diving spots on the Big Island of Hawaii. This is not a comprehensive list of all SCUBA diving locations on the Big Island, but merely a personal guide of our most frequented shore diving sites. These sites are convenient, and easily accessible by car.

Visibility is typically better on the Kona side of the Big Island. Visibility is subject to wind and surf conditions.

We have divided our SCUBA Diving Guide between the two sides of the Big Island, Hilo and Kona. Click below to view our favorite Hawaii shore diving spots.
