About The Blow Hole

The Locals call this place TOILET BOWL. DO NOT try to exit the same place you entered the hole. Go south about 35 meter and get out on the point of rocks south of the little inlet. This is best if the surf comes up but be careful as this is for advanced divers only Directions: On the Big Island, go North on Highway 19 from Kailua Kona about 7 miles to Natural Energy Road (Last road West before the Airport). Drive about 1 mile West to the point where the paved road turns north. Turn South on the Dirt road. Drive (VERY CAREFULLY) about 500 yards to a gate which should be open during the day. Go about 100 yards past the gate and look to the ocean. You will see 3 large lava heads along the ocean. Within the lava heads is a cove with an arch on the ocean side which is partially submerged. There is a nice exit on the South side of the hole right by a rusted piton which is there. Gear up and jump in to the cove. Drop down to the bottom, about 4.5 meter, and swim out under the arch.
