Northwest Hawaiian Islands: Submerged Banks
[ Pioneer Bank | Raita Bank | Gardner Pinnacles | Twin Banks ]
The submerged banks of the Northwest Hawaiian islands are an expanse of habitat supporting a wide range of coral reef organisms. The banks that have been at least partially mapped are listed above, but there are many other banks in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands, including Nero Seamount, Ladd Seamount, and Gambia Shoal, that have not yet been mapped with multibeam surveys.
Click links above to explore the different submerged banks.
