Archipels & Océans - Plongée à Hawaii (32) Images supplémentaires...
Hawaii has long been a favourite dive destination, due to its year-round warm waters and unique lava formations created by geothermal activity.

Within its underwater reefs, tunnels and archways lives a plethora of endemic species found nowhere else in the ocean, as well as a diver's wishlist of species including sharks, whales, dolphins and turtles.

The Hawaiian archipelago encompasses hundreds of isolated islands, offering some of the world's most exciting diving and surfing opportunities.
