Scuba Diving On Molokai
Welcome to Molokai’s Official Scuba diving website. We will provide you with information about everything you need to know in order to dive on Molokai.
Perhaps the most spectacular, untouched reef in Hawaii is the one that protects the south shore of Molokai. A Scuba diver’s paradise, the 30-mile-long-reef offers outstanding diving. It features multiple turtle cleaning stations, blue holes, tropical fish, and endless miles of pristine coral.
Molokai’s reef is like no other in Hawaii with unspoiled waters and abundant sea life. It offers miles of fringing reef with nearly 40 different dive sites. This, along with almost no commercial activity, equals an extremely healthy, stunning reef that is full of life, waiting for you to explore!
