Hanauma bay is my kind of paradise!<3



Aloha! Don't you just love the beach? Don't you just love being drenched under the lovely sun during the summer? Isn't it relaxing to just sit on the sand and appreciate the beautiful shore in front of you? I'm sure most of us have their favorite beaches or islands.

I want to blog about my favorite beach(actually it's not a beach.. they refer to it as a bay). It's the Hanauma bay at Oahu, Hawaii. For me, it's the closest thing to paradise. This beach is definitely a living proof of God's creativity. This is my paradiso here on earth. This is very special bay because of the unique story behind it. As you can see in the picture, the bay has a unique shape. According to a Hanauma local, the bay got its circular shape due of the flooding of a volcanic crater a thousand years back. This bay eventually became popular. Tourists visit the bay to snorkel, swim and scuba dive. The Hanauma bay has clear waters and you can see the wonders underneath. When I first set foot on Hanauma, I couldn't help but put on my goggles and explore marine life. There are different kinds of fishes and beautiful corals. It's like seeing those scenes in Disney's Finding Nemo in real life. However, not everyone can visit Hanauma bay. They have strict visitor limits to conserve marine life. To enjoy its grandeur, tourists must plan ahead. Go to Hanauma bay, Hawaii even just for a stopover and believe me, you will be wanting to come back!
