West Oahu Snorkeling

Filed under: Recent Events — Tags: , , , — andredvanier @ 11:32 am

Snorkeling at Kahe Point, which is nicknamed Electric Beach, can be very interesting with lots of fish, turtles, and sometimes even spinner dolphins. It is called Electric Beach since an electric plant has two huge cooling pipes where clean warm water is sent into the ocean. Because the water temperature at the openings of these pipes is several degrees warmer than the surrounding ocean, the water attracts a lot of sea life. Use caution though and stay away from the actual pipe openings as they can be dangerous. Since our resort at the Ko Olina Beach Villas is close by, it makes for a nice excursion.
