Miloli`i is a very traditional and family oriented village. There is ample parking at the parking lot at the grocery store (first get the property owner's permission). Shaded picnic tables and portable toilets are available at the County Beach Park about 3/4 of a block south from the dive site. There is NO running water. The wharf area offers parking for a few autos. The shoreline waters at the dive site are protected by an outcropping of pahoehoe reefs. The clear blue water and easy entry and exit, makes the drive worth it. There are a lot of lava outcroppings west of the wharf. There are submerged reefs west and south and broken Pahoehoe lava rock with very sharp edges that could cause harm to you upon exiting the dive site when the surf is not acceptable for diving conditions. Beyond the 18m depth and with either strong winds and high surf your chances are good that there will be a strong current moving in either direction south to north or north to south. There is lots of boat traffic in Miloli`i Bay at all hours of the day. There are two ENTRY points. The WHARF or the BEACH on the makai side of the road nearest the store. There is an additional snorkeling ENTRY near the County Beach Park at the SOUTH end of the road. Take a couple of tanks, water and a lunch and be prepared to be overwhelmed with relaxation. The small village is fairly isolated and children abound. Bring heavy, hard soled booties. Nice crevasses and ridges along the drop off. Small pukas and archways along the ledge protecting the inner reef, beautiful tropical fish, crustaceas and invertebrates. Directions: Miloli'I Bay can be found after mile mark 90 on Highway 11, about 30 miles South of Kailua. Now the adventure begins: take a right on the Miloli'I intersection and wind your way several miles of lava fields, through residential area (watch for kids!) to the bay. Drive slowly and carefully, as you will not want to make a mistake on this road.
