Club Dive for Kohala Divers Dive Club. Great shore dive site with easy entry and exit. The giant chains are great navigation aids. The remains of the wreck of the Kiluea and scattered train parts abound on the bottom. manta came into the bay in the afternoon. Octopi, nudibranches, nice coral and sand bottom. Some sand dollars were seen, rare for hawaii. Lots of yellow tang. There was a large school there by the ladder when we arrived the whole area was golden.
