Hanauma Bay Magnet

Hanauma Bay is not only one of the most popular tourist destinations on Oahu but also functions to preserve the natural beauty unique to Hawaii. In 1967, Hanauma Bay was claimed by the State Division of Fish and Game as a Marine Protected Area, meaning everything from marine organisms to sand, was protected. A group of volunteers began teaching visitors about coral reef conservation, providing insight on ways to help preserve the precious sea life.
