Address

Beach park inside Laulau Bay on the east coast, where dive shops do their shore entries

You walk in from a beach tucked inside a calm bay, gear on, and start by practising breathing in the shallows. Then, holding the instructor's hand, you sink to around 5–12 metres, where reef fish swirl between the corals and, with luck, a sea turtle glides right past your mask. It's a shore dive, so no boat and no seasickness. Dive shops were operating in October 2026, though some sites were still off-limits after the typhoon.
