Waikiki Canyon is the normal second dive for boats visiting the YO-257. Lava ridges run seaward in 30 to 40 feet of water, rising to about 15 feet on top of the ridges. Hard coral crusts the lava with a sand bottom between the lava reef formations. There is rarely current but you may feel surge if the surf is up on the South coast. This is a good site to see turtles. You may spot them swimming or sleeping under a ledge or overhanging rock. Moray eels may be found hiding in the cracks. Reef fish abound and octopus may be uncovered if you can spot their hiding places.
