I had the pleasure of visiting the beautiful island of Maui last week. Upon coming over there, one of my objectives was to dive somewhere where the visibility is more than 10 feet. Of course, being in a new place with no knowledge of the dive sites and what they have to offer, I didn't have much of a choice but to pay a premium for those boat dives, where I'd join a large group of divers. Luckily, a good friend, Otter, suggested that I call up Shaka Doug for a private one-on-one shore dive. I'm glad I did. I must say, it was probably the best diving experience I've ever had.
I got two dives in with Doug. One was at the 5 graves/caves and the other Ulua. Both dives were phenomenal. The visibility was easily 80-100 feet with ample of sea life. I got to swim with turtles and saw fish that I've never seen before. One regret I had was not catching a glimpse of the "great" white tip sharks that typically were in the caves. I don't think I would have had this experience if I'd gotten on one of those dive packages, and certainly not with one-on-one guide. Doug knew the sites like the back of his hand. His service was second to none! I'd do it again in a heartbeat if I ever go back to Maui.
If you ever visit Maui, look him up. You will not regret it.
Doug - thank you for the wonderful experience.
Craig - thank you for the tip.
