Life has gotten abundant once again at the reserve. Please do not use the coral heads as dive platforms. It is hard enough for the intertidal plants and coral to survive, even without someone stepping all over them. Divers need to be extra careful to not damage coral with dragging equipment or inappropriate boyancy habits. Anchoring should be done with consideration to both coral and other boats and divers.
More damage is due to inappropriate anchoring than scuba diving.
If the surfers are out is isn't a good day for swimming or snorkeling. Great surfing spot, one of the best on this side of Maui. There are a lot of theft and car break-ins at this location. Leave everything valuable in your hotel room. Leave nothing visible or exposed in your car and do not leave anything valuable unattended on the beach.
