visiting Oahu; need advice/opinions/buddies

[Knight1989]

Ok, visiting Hickam for 2 weeks untill the 4th of Sep and desperatly need to get some diving in while Im down here. Brought all my gear minus tanks and weights. Questions:
Where is a good place to rent tanks and weights for while im here?
What shop would you guys recomend I go through to book a boat trip for next weekend?
Would like to see if anyone would be up for some shore dives as well, since I dont know the waters.

Yes I know Im sure I could search the posts to find all my answers, but Im lazy

I am military so have acess to any places on bases and am a Divemaster so have good experiance to handle any dives.

Thanks

Might be too late, but I am diving the north shore with a couple of people in the morning. We are going to actually dive 2 different sites so it would be a good one for you. We are going to hit the trench first then move up to sharks cove and do dive number 2 there. You are welcome to come along if you get this and wanna come. You can call me if you want. I'll pm my number.

Gabe Scotti at Kaimana Divers. I just returned from Oahu and did all my diving through him. Shore and boat. He took care of everything for me. All I had to do was show up. I don't know if I could have found a nicer, more competent guide for my first visit to Hawaii than him.

Oahu last week of October.

Only going to get one day of diving maybe 2 (if I can talk to my non-diving husband into letting me go.)

Anyone have suggestions on who to dive with or where to dive.

I am a working divemaster on Kauai. Lots of dives, both boat and shore. Will be bringing all my own gear, just need tanks and weights.

thanks for any info.
