Surfing is a sport which started in Hawaii many years ago. In the native Hawaiian language, it means "to stick on a wave". If you want to try surfing, you need to be a good swimmer with an excellent sense of balance.
Scuba diving and snorkeling are 2 ways to get a close look at the beauty lying below the surf of the ocean. The waters of the Hawaiian Islands are clean, clear, and warm. They contain hundreds of kinds of colorful fish. Scuba diving allows you to see the most interesting undersea sights. "Scuba" means equipment for breathing and swimming underwater.
