VERY COOL!

I've seen a few diving just outside Honokohau Harbor, Kailua-Kona. They come in to eat the scraps of game fish cleaned at the weigh station there.

Good to see one. How common is it to see tiger sharks diving Hawaii? Are there places people go to see them with decent reliability? I ask because I associate tiger sharks with Hawaii, but I don't see Hawaii put forth specifically as a destination to go see tiger sharks.

Richard... Tiger Beach in the Bahamas.

A few years ago we had a 13' great white in our dive park thanks to a boat anchored illegally right on the boundary line that was cleaning fish.

Been seeing them pretty regularly at Honokohau Harbor as Scuba Lawyer said. Rough guess 50% of time.
