![]() ![]() It's 5 dollars a person to hike the trail, (unless you're local). There is an area with picnic tables and shade trees to the left of the trail entrance. There are also mango smoothies and lots of other refreshments available at the small stands towards the right of the trail entrance. If you've hiked other hikes in Hawaii, you know break-ins are a problem, so 10$ is worth it.Īfter your hike, cool off with a dole whip, (pineapple ice cream), or a pineapple smoothie. The trade off is that your car is not likely to be broken in to while on the trail. We chose to park at the park, which is 10$ for a vehicle and you have to wait for a spot to open up. There is no enforcement of masking on the hike. The signs that say masks are required in the park appear to only be required when within six feet of others at the entrance, and when buying things, also at the entrance. Right now, there is no outdoor mandate for masks in Hawaii. After 10, it gets really hot and the hike becomes more of a chore. Great hike! I definitely recommend arriving early, as the park fills up quickly. All of the orientation and video is to for educational purposes, Nature Pres erve remember? If you have issues getting to the bay or rather you would not want to deal with all of the above there are other free snorkel spots on the island, turtle bay, kawela bay, and sharks cove, and electric beach are pretty decent spots. After the video you are able to go to the beach. I have had several people say they watched the video on YouTube. AFTER the orientation you then go to the video (could be a minute or two wait depending if the previous video group has concluded or not). This is where you learn what you can and can't do at the beach as well as what's available to you and their locations. ![]() It's about 3-5 minutes depending on the person. That is not the case, you must first go through a brief orientation by a volunteer or education staff. Most people think once they buy their ticket for the movie they will go directly to watch it. This will not cover the online booking, costs, or parking. As one of the volunteers here there are always alot of people who show up not really knowing what coming to the bay entails, so this is to give some insight into what happens after you purchase your ticket and your time slot gets called. Remember Hanauma Bay is a Nature Preserve, not a typical beach, so there is an educational element to the parishioners to bring awareness to keeping the ecosystem alive. ![]()
