Hidden Pinnacle is a more than 100ft tall pinnacle unfortunately on the rough site of Maui but thrilling nevertheless.

Due to its location southeast of Kahakuloa Point (north side of Maui), Hidden Pinnacle can only be reached when conditions prevail. A pinnacle rises from the ocean floor at 120ft to the surface. Leathery octo coral and sponges that are rarely seen on Maui's leeward side cover the pinnacle and schools of pyramid butterfly fish and other plankton feeders feed in the water column. Pelagic encounters are also a possibility at this dive site. Other common creatures are Pyramid Butterfly Fish and Sponges.
Warning: Due to strong currents advanced divers should only attempt this dive and you should listen to your dive guide.
