Snorkeling is another way to explore the waters of Hawaii, and the best part about snorkeling is that anyone can do it, provided they don’t mind getting just a little wet. You don’t need lessons or a proper tour, though there are snorkeling charters available that will take you to some especially lovely spots. Dozens of shops in Waikiki rent snorkel gear. Hanauma Bay is one of the most popular spots on Oahu for first-time snorkelers because it offers warm, clear, and calm waters.
