Olowalu Reef

Olowalu has a very extensive reef bed, ribboned with sand channels running through it and the fish life her is quite extensive. There are also two turtle cleaning stations in this area , which particularly assures turtle sightings.

Turtle cleaning stations are areas where the Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles congregate to let “cleaning fish” remove the algae from their shells and bodies. Since turtles  are air breathing creatures, they have to surface often to breathe, and this makes for great turtle watching!

Along with the Green Sea Turtles that the Olowalu area is particularly well known for, all the beautiful Parrot fish and Wrasses that swim through it’s shallow underwater coral canyons.
