Hanauma Bay Nature Preserve, one of the most spectacular natural resources in Hawaii. Formed within a volcanic cone, today Hanauma Bay offers a pristine marine ecosystem.
All-Terrain Wheelchairs are available from the Beach Information Kiosk. Not a "beach park" for beach sport, but a Nature Preserve dedicated to safeguarding the fragile marine life in the Bay, Hanauma is the first Marine Life Conservation District in the State.
