Thanks!
I'm learning that diving (on Oahu at least) is going to be less expensive than diving here - even the boat dives once I get a club card. I'll be able to dive, just need to moderate. I'm going to do AOW with Island Divers which is mostly from shore for under $200, then I'll be ready to do more shore diving (haven't yet).
When are you going to Big Island? I'm thinking I'll stop there on my way as I have 2 friends there and want to explore and maybe dive a little... I"m dreaming about checking out 1, 2, or even 3 islands before settling on Oahu but that might be stretching it.
My daughter and her family are moving to Kauai in February and my girlfriend and I have been looking at houses on the Big Island for some time and will probably be there in March, if all goes well. Except it turns out she already booked a flight to Cancun. Hmmm. I think she likes Cozumel a lot
$200 for OW? That's pretty good. When I was looking for certification for my honey Hawai'i seemed to have the best prices. They also seem to have the most unemployed instructors so it might be possible to just hire someone on the side.
The couple of times I went on dive boats in Hawai'i it did seem to be cheaper than California. Definitely cheaper than Costa Rica but Mexico has the lowest prices of any place I've been.
