Aloha from Kauai. Ready for a biased reply from a dive pro here?? I think the diving here on Kauai is fantastic. That being said, it "can be" a little more challenging at times. With a little extra research and prep you can set yourself up for a great experience diving here. Kauai has some...

General FYI for those interested in diving Tunnels. Guided tours / training is no longer available. Permits have not been issued for commercial operations to continue up at the dive site. Certainly snorkeling and beach going is fine. I don't suspect that things will change soon. Unguided...

Aloha from the islands. I was considering purchasing one of the diving magnifying glasses like your wife uses. Would you be kind enough to let me know if she is very happy with the product and feels it was worth the cost. I'd sure appreciate any information. Mahalo and have a wonderful...

Aloha, I don't think I know any experienced DM's or Instructors that would suggest diving Tunnels on your own until you have lots of experience and site knowledge. That being said, I don't know anything about your experience level etc. As a starter - there are only a couple places to...

In my humble opinion it's often not the operator you go with - but the guide. If you can book with Aquatic Life with the assurance of diving with Marc Hughes.....it's simply a slam dunk amazing experience. I've been diving professionally in the Hawaiian Islands for a bit over 20 years and when...

Excited for you and your upcoming trip. Looks like you are already getting some good leads. Of important note - Tunnels is no longer available to dive commercially. This is new this summer as no permits were issued for diving to any commercial operators (at least not from shore). It is quite...

Amen to your feelings on Mike Severns! Pauline, Warren, Andy, Poki, AJ ... a one of a kind operation that set the bar for so many years. The passion that they had was awesome. Knowledge like that takes years if not decades and that make's it inherently hard to find. We'd been diving with...

1000%. Bree at Seasport Divers is amazing. Very patient, knowledgeable and fun. Perfect for kids. An instructor you can count on and trust. A

I guess it's better to more feedback than not enough, huh? It is very reasonable to come from the east side of the island to dive out of the Poipu/Koloa area. I had divers come to dive with us several times this week from the east side. Though it's a much bigger travel in the am - we have...

Really no "right" answer to this one. September is a fairly consistent weather month I feel for diving on the leeward coasts. Speaking for Kauai where I live, it's a great time to cross to Niihau though I'd suggest the first couple weeks of Sept. Aloha from Kauai! Feel free to reach out when...

PM sent. We'll get you taken care of. Easy. Koloa Landing is amazing. Today vis' was fantastic and there are great critters everywhere! Cheers A

YES ! Please support Maui. Through early confusion I think some wrong messages were conveyed. There are super professional operations there to go along with incredible diving. If swell cooperates the shore diving there is also not to be missed. Makena Landing is one of our favorite dives in...

I'll make it short and sweet as you are getting so much info from the fantastic members of this for.... "YES" Many people dive multiple days from the east side of the island and even the north shore. Most traffic is flowing into Lihue in the am and you shouldn't have an issue as long as you...

Scott is fantastic! Long time Kauai diver! So glad you had this experience. Wishing you many years of amazing diving! A

Aloha Ashley, I just randomly came across this post and wondered if you got any reply / info? I've been diving in Hawaii for 24 years and can certainly help you out if you still need information. You could also post in the Hawaii forum which would get you lots of info. Send me a PM if you...

Aloha! Came up for air long enough to see this thread! November has traditionally had some pretty awesome diving conditions on the south side without question. While opportunities to dive north, east and west shore could come up - I simply wouldn't bank on them. The southern exposures will...

Aloha. While I'm sure some Kona professionals are the best to answer this IMHO you'd be best to do this dive from the boat. There are a number of companies that can happily take you on an amazing dive at that spot. The issue IMHO again is that you are (depending on where exactly you go) going...

Aloha Rick, I have been a dive pro here in Hawaii for just over 24 years (or I'd like to think somewhere in that 24 year period I became one? Ha Ha). I've worked with several operations here over the years but currently I am working in Poipu with Seasport Divers. If I can ever help you out...

Aloha! Super exciting to be hitting the islands for diving. Niihau season is off and running here and it looks like it will be yet another incredible year. You'll find that all the operators here get wonderful reviews. The trips are very similar from shop to shop. As far as the "advanced...

Looking to sell these still in package never used fins. $100.00 plus ship. LMK if interested. Cheers
