There are a variety of underwater activities available to the Hawaiian tourist. Even in shallow water, just dipping a head into the ocean with swim goggles will reveal a world of colorful and beautiful fish. But if you really want to experience some interesting and unique sea life, you might want to consider your non-snorkeling options.
Scuba is a popular activity, but there are several downsides. For one, the activity is far more expensive than snorkeling. There is also the need to be certified, or you must go with a trained guide. This makes scuba a somewhat complicated endeavor.
There is, however, an alternative. It offers a more extensive experience than snorkeling, but it is not quite as complicated or expensive as scuba. It is named Snuba—an appropriate mixing of snorkeling and scuba. Snuba in Hawaii is particularly popular because of the wide array of fish and sea life available.
Snuba is basically an underwater system where you are completely submerged, but you are still tethered to a water craft. Unlike scuba, your air tank is not attached to your back. The air source is, instead, on the boat itself.
People generally feel safer during a Snuba session, it is less expensive, and it only requires a short lesson. This combination of elements makes it a great activity for the entire family on your next vacation.
