FREE HAWAI`I - FREE HANAUMA BAY
Starting on Saturday, Hanauma Bay access will change for Hawaii residents.
Under
the new policy announced by the city Department of Parks and
Recreation, kama`aina may access the preserve for free with no
reservation during regular hours — 6:45 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on Wednesday
through Sunday.
Previously, kama`aina could enter the park for
free with no reservation until 9AM but still needed a walk-in ticket
or online booking.
Now, all that's needed is a valid photo ID.
Visitors from out of state will still need to make a reservation.
