I went there and it was fun until I swallowed a mouthful of salt water :P but I love it there it's cool that the fish are ok seeing humans nearby all the time

guys just a heads up. i live in oahu and recently, there has been a lot of tourism. im not trying to be racist but, these stupid asians just cant understand what "DO NOT STEP ON THE REEF" means. our corals and reef are dying. plz listen to the rules. the fish population has dropped a bit, and now turtle sightings are rare. plz listen to the rules for future enjoyment

Laurie M they force you to watch a safety video before entering so either way you would have found out

FineByte Blue thanks for the heads up, I'm going there this weekend and I'll definitely be very careful!

I agree but its not just asian tourist there where white ones too. Its a combination of them being too stupid/ not caring because there were many people standing on the reef the whole day I was there also. Its funny I looked around the theater while they were showing the movie and I could tell more then half of the people in there didnt speak english and had no idea what was being said in the movie.

Just got back from there, and unfortunately you're right. A TON of tourists, especially from that region, and I'm constantly seeing them walking around on the rocks and spontaneously forgetting how to swim, requiring rescue from the lifeguards despite having snorkeling equipment and being very close to shore.

Ikr although I'm kinda offended being Asian myself. I didn't step on the coral/reef but it's soooooo frustrating just seeing people walking on the coral from up on the entry place

I went to hawaii to take a break
(I actually missed a few days of school)
It was a full week, I think?
This place isn't as nice as you might think.
there are rocks everywhere, and I scraped my knee underwater while swimming.

Laura Whitstine - 9 years ago

very nice, just got back from Hawaii, snorkeled sharks cove, north shore but it looks like hanauma bay has definitely recovered after the 10 year closure. Nice video!!

Julie F - 9 years ago

OMG went there for spring break. I love Hanauma Bay. Sad part is I didn't see a sea turtle. My cousins did though!!

Joey Emond - 10 years ago

wich quality you take because i have a white edition but indon't know what is the best quality to take for taking video

Mike Delmer - 9 years ago

Many seem to think the white edition is the "worst" out of the Hero 3's but in fact it's just as good and for the price, you won't get better. Why would one go out and spend 450 dollars on a Hero Black edition when you could get a White edition for half the price. Also for quality, I suggest recording in 1080p 30fps, then use the gopro software to correct the quality. Sharpness, saturation, contract and exposure! Tweek those up a bit and it will look great! Good luck :)

Joey Emond - 9 years ago

thanks (-:

BarelyAsian5 - 9 years ago

I believe I used 720p, 60 NTSC fps, which is best used for handheld (or potentially shaky) shots. If you have a body mount, use 960p or even 1080p. 960p shoots high-quality in low-light conditions, but 1080p is probably the best action shot you'll get with a mount or tripod.
Hope this helps!
Sorry about the late response.

OnTargetEngraving - 10 years ago

You are so lucky to have seen turtles! We snorkeled about 3 hours and didn't see any! :(

BarelyAsian5 - 9 years ago

Next time you should check out Turtle beach!

Golfer1966 - 10 years ago

Love the video, but why are you guys stepping on and touching the coral. The video you saw before you were allowed in says what NOT to do.

M.A.D. - 9 years ago

+BarelyAsian5 there's a sea snail that curles into it's shell when you get close, so little girls and boys think it's a beautiful rambow shell and so they pick it up and stung

BarelyAsian5 - 9 years ago

There's sea urchins you have to watch out for too!

M.A.D. - 9 years ago

Depends what kind of coral, but some have venom and can sting you

BarelyAsian5 - 10 years ago

If you watched the video closely, you would have seen that we were not touching or stepping on the coral.

Charles Salvacion - 10 years ago

Nice vid!

Robert Malone - 10 years ago

BarelyAsian5 - 10 years ago

Yes, I used the GoPro cineform studio. You can download it for free at their website!
