My wife and I will be diving around Maui next week. Ten days on the island. Any thoughts on a quick trip to Kona for the mantas? Is there a way to make it an affordable overnight trip? Please make recommendations. Many thanks.

My husband is thinking about getting his dive master certification and wants to buy his own equipment (BCD and Regulator). We live in a small town and want to go somewhere that has a large selection and try on stuff. No, we don't want to buy it online. We were recently in Key West and went...

Looking for a dive shop in Maui that rents bcd’s capable of holding twin tanks. I don’t need rental of tanks with manifold, just the bcd to strap 2 independent tanks to. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated so I can travel lighter.

Hi, We live in Belgium/Europe and this summer, we will be travelling to the Hawaiian Islands from July 21 till August 13 Our 3.5 weeks chill/relaxed planning is already worked out except for the diving. Having done some homework online, I understand diving there is "different" and more...

My mother is thinking about getting a vacation rental for a week in Maui probably late October timeframe and it's big enough for a few family members so if anyone has any recommendations for week long package deal shops, please let me know. Normally, I wouldn't even consider it because of...

My first trip report. That is because I just concluded a 26-year surface interval! Reactivated my PADI AOW cert in preparation for a family vacation to West Maui. All new gear including SW Peregrine, SP reg and SP BCD. We flew Southwest nonstop from Long Beach to Kahului on points. Smooth...

Dive Report: Maui, Hawaii, USA (Once again, thank you to the community for amazing advice on liveaboards and dive sites!) I spent 10 days in July in Maui diving. I'll review the dive sites first, then the dive operators. (Note: I arrived in Maui at the same time as Tropical Storm Darby which...

Aloha! My husband and I are about to pick up our dive gear for the week and are hoping to get to Honalua Bay today, which seems to be the only spot not affected by the southern swell. We'll be in Kihei today through Saturday AM, then Ka'anapali Saturday PM through Tuesday. We've shore dived Maui...

We are going to Maui in March and our 14 and 15 year old daughters need to get their certification dives. Does anyone have a recommendation for a shop or instructor that is good with teenagers? We will be diving with them. They will be PADI trained.

A trip to Hawaiian Islands of Oahu, Maui and Big Island, diving the hotspots of each one!

I will be in Maui for 6 months starting mid June.I am looking for a dive buddy (buddies) for shore dives.

The first week of the month my wife and I celebrated 35 years together with a trip (our 4th) to Maui. Of course I wanted to get a dive in and wanted to go somewhere I have not been and do more than a regular dive. So in searching the various shops web sites I came across Extended Horizons (I...

Was testing out a brand new Aqualung i770R on Thursday September 27th 2018 and well the computer went missing. This was at Makena Landing in South Maui. Believe it fell off in surf on exit. Found a screw inside carry case so suspect strap issues. I have Serial Number to verify and have...

Just excited that I have set a shore dive when the wife and I will be in Maui the first week of November. Saw that Extended Horizons was doing reef cleanup dives and thought it would be something good to do as well as something I have not done there yet (shore dive that is). Hoo hoo! Jeff

My wife and I had a fantastic two week trip to the Big Island (5 nights), Maui (6 nights), and Kauai (3 nights) in July. The islands are quite different from one another, but each has a lovely and unique vibe. I have family on the Big Island, so we visit relatively frequently and have fallen in...

In recent years I have been diving in Indonesia. I have also dived in the Red Sea, Bahamas, Portugal, Azores and Grand Cayman. In April 2019 I have the possibility to visit and dive in Hawaii. Is the Hawai Dive Worth the trip? I live in Portugal. If yes Kauai or Maui?

Hi everyone! I've been lurking for a while now, so I thought it'd be best to start posting! Hubby and I got OW certified in Maui, HI, in March 2018 (with Maui Dreams). We then got our AOW in Cozumel, in May 2018 (with Aldora Divers). Because I'm a teacher, I get the summers off, and am free to...

Still rather rough but thought folks might enjoy a bit of warm water fun... We got out with Capt. Charley and Scuba Shack and stayed in their condos. As in the past, the dives and service was impeccable and I wouldn't not hesitate to recommend his operation to anyone visiting Maui. Topside...
