Hi!
My son, 13, and I are new divers. (certified a little over a year; child: 15 dives; me: 21 dives) We are headed to the Big Island and Maui to dive. We have our dives booked for Big Island, but I'd like some feedback for Maui.
So far, I have booked dives to The Cathedrals, Mala Pier, and Black Rock. I am interested in feedback about Molokini Crater and 5 Caves. I am not comfortable enough to do a shore dive without a guide, as I do not know the area, so renting and exploring on my own are not happening this time.
If there are other locations that are better, please advise!
Molokini Crater: We are not advanced enough to do the back wall, so we'd only do the inner crater.
5 Caves: I was told if I dive in Pauko and and the Cathedrals, I wouldn't need to do this dive.
