Kahe Point (Electric Beach), West Oahu

 

A popular and usually calm shore dive featuring a cooling water outlet from the adjacent power station.  Many divers have their first open water experience here.  A large variety of marine life congregates around the pipes, shallow reefs and sandy plains.  Visibility is normally better than 60 feet making it an excellent place for photography.
