Waikiki Scuba Diving

It was the perfect experience to understand scuba diving. Reda was a patient, knowledgeable and fun instructor. The group caught on quickly and then got to scuba in the lagoon and see coral, fish and sea life. Highly rec... moreommend this tour.

Overall, the experience was fantastic. My wife and I are certified divers, and we wanted to introduce our boys (13 and 17) to the world of scuba diving without the time commitment of a full certification course. This int... moreroductory dive was relaxed and a great way to get them underwater without the need for certification. We wanted to gauge their interest before committing to the certification process. I can see scuba diving in their future.

While the underwater sights weren’t as abundant as you might find while snorkeling in surrounding areas, this experience offered something different, the chance to hover beneath the surface and breathe underwater. Our instructor, Alex, was fantastic and incredibly supportive throughout the adventure. I highly recommend this as a quick and enjoyable way to experience scuba diving.

Outstanding. Love the smaller group and outstanding crew. Highly recommend!

Congratulations to the entire company team and the instructors!

Our overall experience was good however there were a few bad eggs that turned the whole excursion sour. Mica, the young blonde girl, and Yoshi were all great staff members and added a positive outlook to our experience. ... moreHowever, Chad was a looming storm cloud that would ruin any fun and exuded a negative aura that lasted the whole trip.

After Mica gave us a rundown of the safety procedures, sign language and other diving fundamentals, we were given another debrief of these things by Chad. The experience was night and day. Mica was actually teaching and explaining how and why we do those things while Chad was quizzing us and giving condescending answers that weren't very helpful. When we would ask for clarification he would act like it's a quiz and would be hesitant to give us a straightforward answer. His tone was very condescending and he made us feel stupid despite us being brand new divers. Instead of quizzing us, how about answering our clarifying questions about the loads of safety information that we took in 20 minutes prior?

During the first dive, I was lucky enough to get Mica as my instructor and he was great. However, Chad was not a helpful instructor and ALL the members of my group who had the displeasure of learning from him had a negative experience. These main issues remained constant in all their experiences with Chad: he was not helpful, he was dismissive of your concerns, and he expected you to know what to do already. I witnessed his teaching when I was on the boat and I could see the difference in my experience with Mica versus what Chad offered.

He needs more empathy and consideration for others, especially new divers. It's funny because I mentioned that I wanted to dive with Mica because he is chill but he overheard, got jealous, and said, "What did you say about Mica? I am the best diver". It is his attitude and teaching style that make him a great instructor not simply his skills. Chad needs a reality check to fix his attitude.

I never tried scuba diving and I can't swim well so I was worried but the scuba diving team was amazing.
They were very attentive and helped each diver in the group to ensure we had a great time in the water. The lagoon... more is in the city very close to Waikiki Beach but not crowded. It is a beautiful and quiet place. It felt very safe.
We saw corals and many different fish and we got a few short videos of the experience as part of the tour.
If you are looking for a safe introduction to scuba diving this guided diving tour is definitely a great choice.
