My recent dive buddy, Daniel, described this place called “Treasure Chest” in about 40 feet of water off of Keawakapu Beach south end, due west.
I think I was there once in my past life as a scuba instructor, but it was nice to find it again if it is the same place, or nice to be shown it. It is not a treasure chest as the name would suggest, it is named that for the biological treasures found there: Leaf Scorpionfish, Green Lionfish, abundant juvenile fish.
