Water Sports in Hawaii
Trang 4If you enjoy water sports, Hawaii is the place for you! You can go swimming all year round in the warm water You can go sport fishing from the shore or from a boat If you like boats, you can go sailing, canoeing, or windsurfing Or, you can also try some other water sports that are especially popular in Hawaii: surfing,
snorkeling and scuba diving
Surfing is a sport which started in Hawaii many years ago The Hawaiians called it "he'enalu," which means "to slide on a wave." If you want to try surfing, you need, first of all, to be a good swimmer You also have to have
an excellent sense of balance You must swim out from the beach with your surfboard under your arm When
you get to where the waves begin to break, you wait for a calm moment Then you try to stand up on the board
The wave will begin to rise under you You must try to steer the board with your feet so you stay on top of the
wave The important thing is to keep your balance and not fall down If you can manage this, you will have an
exciting ride all the way in to the shore
Scuba diving and snorkeling are two ways to get a close look at the beauty lying below the surface of the ocean The waters off the Hawaiian Islands are clean, clear, and warm They contain hundreds of kinds of colorful fish The undersea world is made even more colorful by the coral reefs of red, gold, white, and light purple Among these reefs there may be larger fish or sea turtles

Underwater Breathing Apparatus," that is, equipment for breathing and swimming around far under water In Hawaii, you can take special courses to learn how to scuba dive After the courses, you can get a certificate that
will allow you to dive alone Since it can be dangerous, proper instruction and great care are always necessary
when you are scuba diving
