    Realize Good basic dive. Mike was an amazing guide. Very fun and informative. Got to see lots of fish and little critters. They included all the underwater pictures which was really cool. If anyone is second-guessing, just do it. This was fun!

    If you have ever considered learning to dive, you NEED to take this intro class.

    Jennifer_R, Jan 2025
    Michael is amazing! He presented the instructional information clearly, made sure we understood and could preform the skills needed for our first dive and kept us feeling safe the entire time. He was patient and respectful of our levels of comfort before proceeding into the dive. We had a few moments of panic but he talked us down calmly and was able to provide us with a wonderful first scuba experience. I highly recommend anyone who is interested in diving, but hesitant to commit to an entire certification course, to give this a try. I really found the walk into the water was much less intimidating to me than going in off of a boat. My husband and I both want to learn more now that we’ve had a taste of it. The photo memories included were a wonderful addition. This definitely has been the highlight of our first Hawaii experience. I highly recommend you book this!

    Fantastic instructor - fantastic experience

    Mike is a great instructor - patient and through. I was a bit anxious so he stayed close and helped me every step of the way. I’m 72 and had a fantastic time!

    Great intro to SCUBA

    Great introduction to SCUBA. Calm waters with a sandy beach to start with a close reef to see all kinds of fish and turtles. Mike was a great instructor, highly recommend!

    Exceptional First Scuba Experience!

    From beginning to end, it was one of the most fun and amazing experiences I've had! Since the moment I booked it, Jennie was fantastic with her communication and my million questions about the different types of dives we could potentially do. There was an initial cancellation when we were there because of a storm, but they were very flexible with rescheduling us for another day, and always kept us in the loop. When the day came, my partner and I were slightly nervous because it was our first time doing it, but Mike was super nice and knowledgeable! He was patient and explained everything, super encouraging, and took great photos! It was just my partner and I, so we got to do it at our own pace. Saw tiny colourful fish, turtles, and a mini cave! In the end, we were super pumped, and motivated us to want to get PADI certified. Do it!

    Great experience
