Is Hawaii water good to drink?
The short answer is: Tap water is safe to drink. According to the Board of Water Supply, Hawaii tap water is some of the best quality drinking water around. It is rainwater that naturally filters through underground porous volcanic rock for about 25 years before reaching aquifers. Volcanic ash can also get into the water, causing contamination, and interfere with common water treatment methods such as filtration and chlorination. For health and safety reasons, in general, the Hawaii Department of Health does not recommend using catchment water for drinking or preparing food.Hawaii tap water IS safe to drink. And, it’s no less safe than bottled water, most of which comes from the same place as our tap water. So, drink up and feel good about it!

A common myth is that women cannot swim while it’s their “time of the month,” but that’s all it is. You absolutely can enjoy taking a dip in a lake or pool when you have your period.

Use a menstrual cup, tampon, or period-friendly swimwear to prevent leaks. Once you leave the water, your flow should return.However, there’s no need to worry if you’re swimming in a pool as the volume of water is so large, so if a small amount of period blood does escape into the water, it’ll be diluted and unlikely to be seen by other swimmers.
