Stone House

Stone House is a shore-access dive site near Kaua‘i’s Poipu coast, typically reached by a short boat or beach entry depending on conditions. The site is characterized by a rocky bottom with a vertical drop and a prominent rock formation that resembles a house outline from certain angles. Visibility is often good in calm conditions, with water temperatures generally in the mid 70s to low 80s Fahrenheit (mid-20s Celsius). The site supports typical coastal Hawaiian marine life and features a mix of hard corals, reef fish, and garden eels in the sandy patches. Entry is straightforward from a local beach or boat ramp, and currents are usually mild but can pick up with tides. This site suits beginner to intermediate divers looking for a relaxing shallow dive with interesting structure and typical reef dwelling species. Nearby access towns include Poipu (about 2–3 minutes by car) and Koloa (about 5–10 minutes), with Numila a short drive further west for divers seeking additional nearby sites.
