Oahu Snorkeling Adventures
Snorkeling at Hanauma Bay, the partly submerged crater on Oahu’s southeast coast, was recently listed by National Geographic Adventures as the 2nd most renowned water activity in the U.S.!
To most Hawaiians, this is no surprise. With its 1/2-mile ribbon of white-sand beach and towering palms, Hawaiians have long prided the wonderful, semi-circular bay. Hanauma Bay was a favorite fishing spot for the Ali’i – Hawaiian royalty – and in the past hundred years, it has been tremendously popular among residents and tourists alike for its beach, reef and large amount of tropical fish, manta rays and sea turtles.
Oahu Snorkeling Tours to Hanauma Bay let tourists snorkel directly from the shoreline – boats are prohibited! CPA-certified instructors, who are educated in snorkeling and scuba, as well as educated in the history of the area, the fish and coral, are authorized to take little groups snorkeling, snuba and scuba diving on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. These tours are great for beginners, or those who want to explore the many wonders of Hanauma Bay with an expert guide.
Hanauma Bay Snorkel offers all snorkel equipment, instruction by a life guard, drinks & snacks, and tram fare in addition to transportation to and from major Waikiki hotels. The $7.50 entrance fee is not included, so bring some cash.
In Dr. Beach’s 14th annual rankings of American beaches, Hanauma Bay was placed as the best beach in the U.S.. One of the main reasons for Dr. Beach’s decision was the superb environmental preservationof Hanauma Bay. To preserve Hanauma Bay’s natural beauty, it is closed on Tuesday, and tours are prohibited on weekends or Hawaii State Holidays.
Originally formed within a volcanic cone, Hanauma is a marine embayment that is populated with a spectacular coral reef. Hawaii’s state fish, Humuhumunukunukuapua’a, which means triggerfish with a pig-like short snout in Hawaiian, and the parrotfish are only a couple of the 450-plus species of Hawaiian fish that inhabit the amazing reef. The trumpet fish, Moorish idols, milletseed butterfly fish, yellow tangs, puffer fish and surgeon fish are a few of the other tropical fish you will often see while you are snorkeling.
Due to its long history of protection, Hanauma Bay remains one of the world’s best snorkeling sites, so it shouldn’t come as a surprise that it is the best Oahu snorkeling. In 1928, the City & County of Honolulu created Koko Head Regional Park, which included Hanauma Bay and Koko Crater, after purchasing them from the Bishop estate for one dollar. In 1950, the City & County of Honolulu constructed a road to the beach and installed new restrooms and showers in the formerly-named Hanauma Bay Park. It quickly became a preferred fishing and lunch destination for Honolulu inhabitants far and near.
In 1967, the State Division of Fish & Game declared the whole bay a Marine Life Conservation District, and prohibited taking shells, coral, rocks, marine life and even sand. Locals visited less often, shortly after the establishment of admission fees, while snorkeling and feeding fish became enormously popular among visiting tourists. In 1990, Friends of Hanauma Bay was formed, providing more thorough protection to the delicate Bay’s resources. Now, feeding fish is no longer allowed!
There are two different groups that take care of the Hanauma Bay Nature Preserve: the State of Hawai’i Dept. of Land & Natural Resources that controls the underwater segment and the City & County of Honolulu that administers the part of Hanauma Bay lying above the high tide line. Every year, about one million people visit Hanauma Bay Nature Preserve.

On A Dollar A Day: One Couple $10.19 What happens when two high school teachers get fed up with their soaring grocery bills and decide to try to feed themselves on one dollar each per day? Authors Kerri Leonard and Christopher Greenslate describe how they did it–and also include sections about eating on a little more than $4 a day as well as on the actual costs of eating a healthy diet. On a Dollar a Day also includes fascinating facts about the way our food gets to the table and the hidden costs–both personal and financial–along the way: How food companies "short size" packages so that you pay more for less food Why one tablespoon of salad dressing costs as much as a whole orange How grocery stores auction off foods past their "sell by" dates Why processed foods have a higher markup than fresh foods Why it takes so long for food prices to drop even after fuel and shipping costs go down How 36 million Americans have limited food options even during a national obesity epidemic |

The Dollar Crisis $26 In this updated, second edition of the highly acclaimed international best seller, The Dollar Crisis: Causes, Consequences, Cures , Richard Duncan describes the flaws in the international monetary system that have destabilized the global economy and that may soon culminate in a deflation-induced worldwide economic slump. The Dollar Crisis is divided into five parts: Part One describes how the US trade deficits, which now exceed US$1 million a minute, have destabilized the global economy by creating a worldwide credit bubble. Part Two explains why these giant deficits cannot persist and why a US recession and a collapse in the value of the Dollar are unavoidable. Part Three analyzes the extraordinarily harmful impact that the US recession and the collapse of the Dollar will have on the rest of the world. Part Four offers original recommendations that, if implemented, would help mitigate the damage of the coming worldwide downturn and put in place the foundations for balanced and sustainable economic growth in the decades ahead. Part Five , which has been newly added to the second edition, describes the extraordinary evolution of this crisis since the first edition was completed in September 2002. It also considers how the Dollar Crisis is likely to unfold over the years immediately ahead, the likely policy response to the crisis, and why that response cannot succeed. The Dollar Standard is inherently flawed and increasingly unstable. Its collapse will be the most important economic event of the 21st Century. |

Biography of the Dollar $11.99 Will the sun set on the greatest currency in the history of the world? For decades the dollar has been the undisputed champ. It’s not only the currency of America but much of the world as well, the fuel of global prosperity. As the superengine of the world’s only superpower, it’s accepted everywhere. When an Asian company trades with South America, those transactions are done in dollars, the currency of international business. But for how much longer? Economists fear America is digging a hole with an economy based on massive borrowing and huge deficits that cloud the dollar’s future. Will the buck be eclipsed by the euro or even China’s renminbi? Should Americans worry when the value of the mighty U.S. dollar sinks to par with the Canadian “loonie”? Craig Karmin’s in-depth “biography” of the dollar explores these issues. It also examines the green-back’s history, allure, and unique role as a catalyst for globalization, and how the American buck became so almighty that $ became perhaps the most powerful symbol on earth. Biography of the Dollar explores every aspect of its subject: the power of the Federal Reserve, the inner sanctums of foreign central banks that stockpile the currency, and the little-known circles of foreign exchange traders that determine a currency’s worth. It traces the dollar’s ascendancy, including one incredibly important duck-hunting trip and the world-changing Bretton Woods Conference. With its watermark, color-shifting inks, and a presidential portrait that glows under ultraviolet light, the dollar has obsessed foreign governments, some of which have tried to counterfeit it. Even Saddam Hussein, who insisted on being paid in euros for oil, had $750,000 in hundred-dollar bills when captured. Yet if a worldwide currency has enabled a global economy to flourish, it’s also allowed the United States to owe unbelievable, shocking amounts of money—paying hundreds of millions of dollars every single day just in interest on foreign debt; that’s raised concerns that the dollar standard may not be sustainable. Any threat to the dollar’s privileged status would do much more than hurt American pride. It would mean U.S. companies and citizens would not be able to borrow at the low rates they have become accustomed to. The dollar’s demise would impact the rest of the world, too, boosting the costs of trade and investment if no other currency was able to play the same crucial role. Ultimately the dollar system may weaken, but it should endure—a while longer, at least; it’s in few people’s interest to see it fail, and there is still no credible alternative. Biography of the Dollar is must reading for anyone who wants to understand what truly makes the world go ’round—and whether it will continue to spin the way we want it to. From the Hardcover edition. |

A Dollar Short $14.99 It isn’t every day a movie star steals your husband. When that day comes for Chiffon Butrell, of Cayboo Creek, South Carolina, she looks to the Bottom Dollar Girls to help her out of one fine mess. As a waitress at the local Wagon Wheel restaurant, Chiffon pegs her fortunes to a winning entry in a local video store’s Be-a-Movie-Star contest. But her celluloid dreams are dashed when her baby takes sick and her husband, Lonnie — one fine specimen of Southern manhood — heads for the Hollywood Hills solo. On set, he turns the head of leading lady Janie-Lynn Lauren, whose siren call is Oscar caliber. Back in Cayboo Creek, Chiffon manages to lose her temper and her job in quick succession — only to discover that Lonnie’s paycheck from the Nutra-Sweet plant has been forwarded to a California address. With three kids to feed, Chiffon comes up more than a dollar short. Her good friends try their best to pitch in. But there are too few hands to lend, what with Elizabeth and her husband, Timothy, expecting their first baby any day and the rest of the Bottom Dollar Girls knee-deep in their secret — and possibly scandalous — plan to raise money for the Cayboo Creek Senior Center. When a slick of Wesson Oil at the Winn-Dixie gets the better of Chiffon’s ankle, there’s just one thing to be done — call on estranged older sister Chenille, who hails from Bible Grove, South Carolina. A prissy, fussy spinster prone to dressing her dog, Walter, in matching plaid “mother-son” outfits, Chenille is everything former beauty queen Chiffon detests. Suddenly the tabloid media gets wind of Janie-Lynn and Lonnie’s torrid romance, landing sleepy Cayboo Creek on the star map. Under the glare of camera lights, the sisters must put aside their longtime grievances to forge a newfound relationship. As crisis reigns, Chenille is welcomed by the Bottom Dollar Girls for her cool head and quick thinking. And when Chenille runs into a little trouble of her own, she begins to see the future in friendship. A rollicking, hilarious novel about two sisters who are each one of a kind, A Dollar Short is a delicious page-turner worth every last cent. |
