Certified Scuba Diving Along Two Shallow Reef Sites

Certified Scuba Diving Along Two Shallow Reef Sites

Turtles! Turtles! Turtles! We visit popular turtle-cleaning stations. What is a turtle-clean station? It says exactly what it says! Turtles visit these specific reefs to have smaller fish 'clean' their shells for them. It is almost like a turtle car wash! These turtle cleaning stations are a great spot to see a turtle while you scuba dive! Your instructors will guide you along two lively Hawaiian shallow reefs. As you glide along, soaking in the clear blue waters, your instructor will point out sea creatures big and small, like monk seals, turtles, dolphins, fish, nudibranch, and much more, as you continue your scuba tour. Scuba divers will see amazing colorful reef fish (many of which are endemic to Hawaii, meaning they can only be found in Hawaiian waters) and lovely coral.

Chet_W, Sep 2026

Wonderful 10/10!

We were scheduled to dive the day the tropical storm was driving high winds. They communicated with us all the impacts and although rescheduled due to weather 3 times they kept us informed. When it came to the dive the crew was amazing with my wife’s first deep dive, they coached her and made it more comfortable for the both of us. The sites were amazing with an abundance of sea life.

Kyle was very...

Kyle was very knowledgeable and patient. He allowed us to go at our own pace. When we got to the point where we could not continue (we are an older couple), he was very understanding and assured us that we were not the only people who had difficulties.

Discover Scuba - great experience!

My husband is certified but I wanted to try the discover scuba. I was able to learn the skills, practice in the water, and then do two separate dives with him tagging along. Jeff was a fabulous teacher and I felt very comfortable in the water with him. The whole crew was great and helpful esp our captain Adam! Would highly recommend - worth every penny!

Core memory - made

This was a fantastic way to introduce our teenage kids to scuba. We are certified and wanted them to experience an ocean dive after an intro in scouting. Chad and Tay were great with them. We got to do a deeper dive while they had a shallow intro then we did a family dive together. It was so awesome to see our kids, sea life and give hand signals to each other in the beautiful waters off Oahu. Thank you for this core memory experience.

The overall experience...

The overall experience was amazing. The team was very knowledgeable and very friendly patient along the way, and they taught us everything we needed to confidently be out there in the water. I would highly recommend that anyone try this if they’ve never done any scuba, you will not be disappointed.

Best experience in Hawaii. Ask for instructor Olga, not only was she very knowledgeable, she was constantly checking on equipment to make sure I was comfortable. We were able to swim with sea turtles and other rare fish. Would recommend to anyone visiting Hawaii and will definitely be booking again.
