Snorkel Two Step Beach

Finding the location is fairly simple. If you are just going to snorkel and relax you don't need to go into Pu'uhonua o Honaunau National Park. Instead park just outside of it and facing the entrance of the park you will walk down a one way street on the right. You can attempt to park down the one way street but you will have to pay for parking.

There isn't a sandy beach at Two Steps. You will have to enter the water from the lava rocks. It is fairly simple and easy to enter. Just make your way to the center of the rocks and there are Two Steps (more like three) where you can slide yourself into the water. 

When making your way out to enter the water wear flip flops as the rocks can be hard on your feet. Turn them over before entering the water, as they will get hot if it is sunny. 

When entering the water sit down and put your fins on in the water, trust me it is easier. Once ready time your entrance into the water with the surge and enjoy.

There are several things to see while snorkeling at Two Steps. Apart from the amazing wildlife and clear waters there is a spelt out Aloha on the ocean floor to the right of where you enter the water. Its approximately 20ft deep and can be seen with good visibility. Most of the area close to shore is about 5-15ft deep. If you venture out about 100 yds slightly left of where you entered there is an arch about 25ft down you can swim through it if you are an experienced swimmer.

Overall it was such a surreal diving location for all levels of snorkelers.
