Did not get a chance to use the snorkel gear, (waste of money spent)
What appeared to be city officials were only allowing entrance to groups of 50 people at a time, creating a bottleneck with approx 500 people just waiting on the grass, very disorganized event, tried to patiently wait for almost 2 hours to get into the beach . Whilst getting scolded by city officials to not step on the grass, rock or trees, getting yelled at for trying to pass the time by playing catch with my son on what would have been our father & son bonding time whilst snorkeling. Disappointing

We are really sorry about your experience at Hanauma Bay state park.Our shop just rent the gears to ours customers and they can snorkel there or another beaches.It’s out our hands how they operate there, since we aren’t located inside the park. We hope we can see you in the future, aloha!
