United States PacificGreat area to dive. Lots of reef fish, moray eels, mantas, and dolphins, macro & wide angle subjects. There are numerous dive operators to take you boat diving as well as lots of shore dives to do. The most popular shore dive is at "The Place of Refuse". The dive site is called "Two Step", named for the two lava steps leading into the water. Ask any dive shop how to get there. Diving in Kona would not be complete without doing the night manta dive. This is a Boat dive and well worth it.

Egypt Red SeaNot good for the day, but can have some nice surprises in Nightdives.
It's a tie up point for liveaboards out of Sharm and a handy shake down dive.
Basically a huge coral bommy. I've seen shoals of barracuda, crocodile fish. Hawkfish can be found on the black coral. The usual Gorgonia, Lionfish, and a huge Napolean Wrasse in a cave having his mouth cleaned!

New Zealand PacificA beautiful arch which extends from just under the surface right down to 40 metres. Tricky to do unless the sea is calm, since a strong current through the arch makes it difficult and dangerous. Just outside the arch, there are some small caverns with lots of colourful sponges. Sea Temp 19c (Jan 2008)
