In the 70s when my children were little we enjoyed Hanauma Bay.  My kids would stand in the shallow water with fish swimming around their ankles.  The abundance of fish was enchanting.  A couple of years ago my son and I went early to Hanauma Bay to enjoy some easy snorkeling.  The fish were sparse, very small, and it was hard to find even one of the formerly abundant parrot fish.  It seemed like the overuse of this beautiful bay had taken its toll.It is so nice to know that the bay is being restored, and hopefully we will learn a lesson.  This is a wonderful place for both tourists and kamaaina, and although the covid pandemic has been disatrous, it has provided some much needed ecological relief.
