I have often been asked by visitors staying on the North shore of Oahu: Where is the best snorkeling?<\/p>\n
Sharks Cove is about a five minute drive from Sunset Beach and is one of the north shore\u2019s finest snorkeling and scuba diving locations. With an extensive coral reef, Shark\u2019s Cove exhibits a variety of marine life in its natural environment.<\/p>\n
The reef at Shark\u2019s Cove can only be accessed during calm seas which typically occur during the summer months. Turtles are frequently seen in the cove, and there is also a wonderful beach for swimmers.<\/p>\n
There are no lifeguards at Shark\u2019s Cove so use caution and do not enter the water if there is strong surf or currents. Read snorkeling safety tips<\/a> and follow the proper precautions.<\/p>\n I recommend you wear shoes at all times due to the sharp coral and rock formations. The Ocean drops off to about 25 feet at the end of the reef.<\/p>\n Across the street from Shark\u2019s Cove is a Starbucks coffee shop and a Foodland grocery store where you can get your basic needs or some of the local foods such as Sushi and Poke (pronounced (po-kee). Poke is a Hawaiian favorite consisting of fresh, raw fish mixed with other local ingredients such as Maui onions.<\/p>\n If you are planning on visiting the north shore, Hawaiian Beach Rentals offers quality North Shore Vacation Rentals<\/a> as well as other exceptional Oahu accommodations<\/a>.
