Big island ...suggestion needed for scuba and snorkeling.

You park right there, and they start right there. Some warm springs as well. It's like a lattice-work of ponds, you can go as far out as conditions permit. The ones close to shore are calmer than Kahuluu. I've never been there when it was bad, but I'm sure it can be. It mostly interesting because of some unusual coral encrustations, and the fish bowl nature of the ponds. I'd say it's not worth the 8 hours of driving if you've got other things on the list, but when I'm down there I try to go. It's a fun spot. There's a warm pool at water's edge in a park not far from there which is also a fun spot, if it's flushed out. I've been there when it was great, and when it was a little dirty looking.

Thanks spooling.

Can anyone tell where I can get fresh cut coconut water (tender coconut) in big island?

( I used to get it from a road side vendor in Kauai. ... when I was there vacationing few years ago. )

Here is one place I hit twice back in 2000 when I was there. http://www.kona123.com/honaunaubeach.html
I bottomed out at 120' but not much to see there. However in 30-50' the coral was awesome. Hopefully it still is.
