Fish Garden
Advanced Oahu wall dive with strong drift potential
Boat-dropped wall dive with steep drop-offs, boulder fields, and current that can run hard on the right day.
About Fish Garden
Fish Garden is an advanced Oahu wall dive between Spitting Cave and Sea Cave, with steep sea-cliff drop-offs, boulder clusters, and a drift profile that can pick up current. On good days the site is full of reef fish, turtles, octopus, and other mid-water life. Boat drops and controlled drift planning make it a better fit for scuba or confident freedivers than casual shore entries.
