This review is from: Lonely Planet Diving & Snorkeling Hawaii (Paperback)

This book covers ALL the islands for diving and snorkeling. It would be perfect if you were going to be diving a lot there. It gave thorough information for many areas. We found that asking locals for great spots worked out better. The book did give us a great starting point and some info about parking and the beaches at locals.

This review is from: Lonely Planet Diving & Snorkeling Hawaii (Paperback)

Since Hawaii has a number of islands, each with a ton of dive sites, this book only has general and somewhat limited information for specific areas. I would have preferred a Diving & Snorkeling MAUI guide, but as far as I know Lonely Planet doesn't make one. The Diving & Snorkeling Hawaii book would be fine if it was a bit longer (this one is pretty short), but then it would be a pain to pack.
