Snuba Tours of Kauai | Small-Group Guided Beach SNUBA Diving Tour at Lawai Beach
I want to do it again!
Activity Date: 2014/09/09 | Posted on: 2014/09/12

Got sort of lost looking for the place. We thought we were looking for a building but it's actually a white van. Other than that the crew was great. We had Thomas and another man (sorry forgot his name) but they were understanding and helpful. Our family and friends loved it. It was the highlight of my trip. Can't wait to come back one day to Kauai.

Awesome SNUBA Tour
Activity Date: 2014/06/19 | Posted on: 2014/06/26

This tour was pretty cool. I wasn't sure what to expect and was really nervous but everyone friendly and helpful. One of the guides, Sean, can come off a little abrasive to an anxious person like me and kind of seemed like "oh great, I have deal with a tourist who doesn't know what they're doing" but the main guy (I can't remember his name, sorry) made up for him and really helped me out when I was having difficulty. The diversity of fish and life that you get to see is beautiful and amazing! I would highly recommend this activity!

Great experience!
Activity Date: 2014/01/09 | Posted on: 2014/01/12

Snuba diving was the best!! Kevin and Shawn were our instructors and they were so much fun! I'm scuba certified and and my best friend has only snorkeled, and snuba was so easy to do. I would absolutely do it again. I did however wish we could go deeper but you share a tank so you're limited to air. It was still a great experience and I'm really glad I did it!

Activity Date: 2013/12/05 | Posted on: 2013/12/08

It was my first time scuba diving. The instructors were knowledgable, professional, thorough and organized. They went over and beyond their duty to make my first dive experience completely enjoyable. Thank you!!

Fantastic Adventure
Activity Date: 2013/09/02 | Posted on: 2013/09/07

We signed up as a newly married couple after attempting surfing many times with "veteran" friends. We didn't have high hopes for ourselves, but Kyle was able to get both of us up and surfing in no time. He was friendly and set us at ease, very attentive, and had a great method for instructing. We would highly recommend this activity with this company.

Best part of my Hawaiian vacation!!!
Activity Date: 2013/08/15 | Posted on: 2013/08/19

I cannot begin to express how amazing our Snuba experience was. The instructor was super friendly and you could tell he loved doing what he does. He was more than accommodating to questions and made sure you understood and had a wonderful experience. The dive itself was great. There were so many beautiful creatures to see. The only thing I would change is to have been out there longer! If you are debating on whether to do this or another activity, I would strongly recommend this one over anything else Kauai has to offer!

This was our first experience swimming in the ocean and I couldn't have asked for a better first time!!! My fiancé was new to under water diving and was having a difficult time breathing. Sean stayed with him the whole time and never let him give up!!! We had such an incredible time under the water. We had ample instruction time and felt safe. It lasted very short time and we wanted to stay longer. We would do it again in heart beat !!! Definitely worth the money and we've gained a wonderful new memory!

SO COOL!
Activity Date: 2013/05/15 | Posted on: 2013/05/20

My family had a great time. My son loved it! Its a combo of snorkling and scuba diving but without having to get scuba lessions and certification. Seems easy at first until you get in the water...just listen to the instructor and focus on the sea life while you are under. Ken was great! Would do it again! Best part, got to have an octopus wrapped around my arm....totaly cool!

Introductory Two-Tank Kauai Scuba Diving Boat Tour (from Poipu)
Fantastic dives
Posted on: 2013/05/16

I dove with Tim and Andrew on an absolutely perfect day. We did two drift dives, one at Turtle Bluffs where the visibility was easily over 100 feet, and the second at Amber's Arches.

Saw several huge turtles, a few reef sharks hiding below the bluffs, and an amazingly beautiful Spanish Dancer as we were swimming "upstream" underneath Amber's Arch! Great crew, top-shape boat & shop and brand new equipment made for unforgettable dives.

This is definitely one of the top operations I have ever dove with and I fully recommend diving with them if you are on Kauai. During the summer you can also dive off of Niihau for what I heard were some of the best dives ever.

Awesome Experience
Posted on: 2013/02/21

My husband and I did this on our honeymoon at the end of Jan, It was so much fun, we both had a blast, made us want to get our snorkling gear and go spend more time in the water, but snuba diving is way better. A definite must do when on vacation in Hawaii.

An amazing experience
Posted on: 2013/02/01

My GF and I are getting certified and we took my mother with us for a discover SCUBA dive. Jackie was so patient and really took great care of my mother so my Fiancee and I could have a great time. When we went on the dive with the certified crew, we really felt apart. We will be going back in a number of years to dive with this crew again.

Had a fantastic time and as a first timer the instruction and easing into things was very well done....time and patience and a heck of a lot of fun. After all is said and done it makes you wish for certification so you can do it again and again...so watch out it could be addictive !!!! Thanks to everyone at Seasport Divers for a chance of a lifetime to experience scube diving for the first time.

A fun excursion
Posted on: 2012/08/08

Fun! I went with my 15-year-old daughter, and neither of us had done Snuba before. The guides were wonderful-- interactive, informative, good-humored. I'd recommend going on a trip earlier in the day when the tides are gentler and there are generally more fish to see (we went at 1:30).

Snuba on Kauai
Posted on: 2010/06/18

Genevieve and Lily loved this as their first time snuba experiences. In fact this was their first time going to A BEACH! A memory that will stay with them forever. Thank you to Kevin for being so good to them. Mahalo and Aloha from Kansas City!

Kauai Snuba is Fun!
Posted on: 2010/05/28

The best part of snuba-ing is that you don't have to hover on the surface of the water, you can actually breath underwater. We spent most of our time being silly and pretending we were mermaids. We had a blast. Thanks to Kevin and the snuba crew!

Posted on: 2009/01/26

We are both certified divers with a little less than year of experience. So we know what we were doing but appreciates the older diver's guidance. The Seasport Divers staff made the whole diving experience a lot better than expected. The Kauai has a lot of untouched reefs compared to Oahu, so we got to see some marine animals unique to Hawai'i. There was a huge eel which came out of nowhere, and we were hanging out with him (her?) for a while. Thanks a lot for a good time. We'll come back next year!

Kauai Snuba Diving
Posted on: 2008/10/31

Snuba diving was by far the best, most fun, most relaxing activity that I've ever done on any of the Hawaiian Islands! We were well instructed and the staff (sorry I don't remember names) were very safety-conscious. I couldn't stop smiling afterwards, and just to write about my experience now, I'm still smiling! I just finished watching the video of our group and re-lived it all over again. I highly recommend this activity!

Unique experience!!
Posted on: 2008/08/28

Had a great time, only wished it lasted longer, guess I used up all the alloted air in my excitement! Up close and personal with the fish, coral, and water. Makes me want to become scuba certified as soon as possible.

Surfs'up!
Posted on: 2008/08/09

We had a great time. It was actually 2nd time trying to learn surfing. We tried from my friend, but we decided to take a lesson from pros. The instructor guy was very helpful, and taught us how to read the wave and the current, some safety tips you should know, etc. After all, surfing can be dangerous, so we're glad that we took a lesson. Thanks.

We had a great time surfing in Kauai. The water was a bit colder than expected, but the thrill of surfing the wave makes you forget about the temperature. Mahalo!

Wonderful Experience!!
Posted on: 2008/04/17

Kevin was a fantastic teacher! Having never even snorkled before, it didn't take long to get comfortable in the water. Was so exhilerated after, am planning on getting scuba certified for my next trip. Smoothly run & very well explained. Loved the video and am recommending this activity to everyone.
Thanks a lot Kevin, will see you next year. Mahalo!!

Incredible staff- Brownie was fantastic as well as all of the others. Helpful, knowledgeable, and fun to spend a day with. Instuctions are clear and concise, not much to worry about. All of the divers were thrilled and excited as they boarded the boat. I would recommend this company for all of your Kauai Diving!

Introductory Two-Tank Kauai Scuba Diving Boat Tour (from Poipu)
A trip down under
Posted on: 2007/09/05

The scuba diving was fun. I'd recommend for first timers to minimize their trip to just the single tank dive, so they can decide if it is really something they would like. It does get tiring fairly quickly, so a single trip, while it may seem short, is more than enough for the first time. I'd recommend also going straight to the Sheraton reef where you are GUARANTEED to see at least a few sea turtles and get some great pictures. It takes a while to acclimate to the undersea pressure, so if you have the slightest hint of a cold don't go! Seriously, your ears will thank you! I had a headache and trouble hearing for days after my dive. Small price to pay for what I got to see, but you might take some extra vitamins the few days up to your dive, just in case.
