About Kohala Coast

A cave dive. It goes down to 20 m. You get in from a boat. It suits Advanced divers and up, as a dive guide states it. The coast faces NW: swell from the NW reaches it, and wind from the SE blows out to sea. No dive centre within 10 km, the nearest 12 km away. The sea is about 25°C in January, its coldest month (3 mm wetsuit), and 27°C in July, its warmest (3 mm wetsuit). The town to stay in is Kapalaoa. Within 5 km we also list 1 surf spot and 1 dive site.
