My wife and i spent a full week on oahu with a mission to swim/snorkel with sea turtles, we did Hanauma Bay but it was always jam packed with tourists. What we discovered was that there is a location on OAHU where the sea turtles consistently come to feed.
Location: Ko Olina Paradise Cove
Time: 11 AM to 1 PM ( Recommend to arrive at 10AM)
Google Maps:
Tips:
- Arrive early as the parking lot is very very small (roughly 5 cars), you could always park farther away and walk along the main road.
- There are no toilets at this site, so be prepared. You can walk to the local shopping area to use the toilets
- Since its a cove, its perfect for inexperienced swimmers / non swimmers (water is sometimes only waste deep)
- Bring a gorpro!
- We had a better experience with traditional snorkeling masks as opposed to those full face masks.
- There is LIMITED SHADE! so be prepared
