Hanauma Bay's On-Site Amenities for Visitors
1
Marine Education Center
Opened in 2002, guests can explore the Marine Education Center, where biologists and volunteers share insights about Hanauma Bay’s vibrant marine ecosystem and the importance of reef conservation. All guests are required to watch an 8-minute educational video that explains the guidelines for responsible snorkeling and reef safety. However, when booking through Roberts Hawai‘i, guests can conveniently view this mandatory video aboard our fully-electric, zero emission motorcoach enroute to the Bay, allowing them to bypass the on-site video line and spend more time enjoying the water.

Snorkel Rentals
Located conveniently near the beach area, Dive Oʻahu is the official snorkel concessionaire at Hanauma Bay, offering quality rental equipment to help visitors make the most of their day in the water. Guests can choose from standard or premium rental options, including dry mask and snorkel sets or full sets with fins for a more complete snorkeling experience. Guests are also required to complete a rental waiver before receiving their equipment. A valid photo ID or credit card may be held during the rental period as a security measure, so visitors should bring proper identification.

Guests can enjoy a variety of options such as sandwiches, wraps, salads, hot dogs, fruit cups, ice cream, and cold drinks including bottled water, juices, and sodas. Visitors are also welcome to bring a small personal cooler with snacks and non-alcoholic beverages to enjoy at the beach.

Hanauma Bay Tram
To make your Hanauma Bay experience even more enjoyable, the City and County of Honolulu provides a complimentary tram service, operated by Roberts Hawai‘i, that conveniently transports visitors between the upper parking area and the Bay entrance. The tram is ADA accessible, accommodating guests with mobility needs for a comfortable and safe ride. When planning your return trip, please allow an additional 20 to 30 minutes for drying off, walking to the tram stop, and waiting for the next available tram to the top. Trams operate continuously throughout the day, but due to high visitor volume, wait times may vary.
