Hoping to spend some time diving in Hawaii, but am a bit concerned about comments I have seen around the high costs and expenses of diving there.
Thought helpful to start a chain with info on less expensive / value priced dive operations and guides especially for those who might be doing extended dive trip with more dives where price can make a difference. Trying not to describe as cheap or inexpensive as safety is always the most important thing. But hopefully there might be some quality value priced options. Or perhaps there are some with good discounts, packages, or other opportunities.
Trying to avoid cattle cars, but maybe there is a tradeoff for price / group size. Sometimes though a great guide / spotter can make it all worth it in case anyone has great recs / suggestions.
Experienced diver with 400+ dives but very limited in Hawaii.
