11/23/2005 Andrew at San Diego (Avg: 4.23 Review) - I just dove this site two weeks ago. It's great for snorkeling, but stick to the right. Conditions can be awful if you encounter a flowing stream crossing the trail on your hike to the beach. And be careful of the surfers out to the right.

10/11/2005 Kendall Roberg (Avg: 3.58 Review) - This site is a good navigation practice dive. You swim from reef to reef (many of them are small). Trade winds make this a very exposed site to choppy surf, but underwater it is clear. I think many divers skip this site, and to be honest it is a little boring compared to many other Maui dives.

10/13/2004 Charlie Allen (Avg: 3.22 Review) - Lots of schooling fish near the rocky point on the North side. Good for both snorkeling and diving. There is a nice reef with several cleaning stations running SW from the rocks on the South end of the beach. It can be a bit tricky to find unless you snorkel around to orient yourself first. Nice mini-wall with about 10' relief, 30' depth. Lifeguards insist on the use of a dive flag. It's a good idea because of the proximity to Kihei boat ramp. My primary reason for diving this reef is that my condo is across the street, and I'll dive while family and visitors hang out on the beach and/or snorkel.

07/28/2002 Bill Stohler (Avg: 2.89 Review) - This site is not commonly dove by scuba divers, although I have a few friends who like to dive here. Mostly patch reef diving. There are occasionally things that make it worthwhile like dolphins and rays, but these are usually few and far between. Long surface swim. Without a guide, you may have a hard time even finding the reef!
