Water temps?

[DivePartner1]

I'm looking to dive near Hilo next week, Kauai the week after (Popui Beach area) and the lee shore of Oahu the week after.

Can anyone tell me what water temperatures to expect? Any rave reviews of dive ops and any site to fill what I've found searching the board?

Thanks!

It was 79* this past week in Maui's water.

Aloha, Tim

Good luck diving Hilo this time of year. It's an OK dive at best there in good weather, poor to imposable this time of year. It's worth the time to drive to Kona side to dive. Rember that saddle road summits at 6000 feet plus so no driving after diving. Take the south route to come back, very pretty drive. Enjoy your visit. Aloha

...if you really want to dive on the Big Island, you'll need to hop on over to the Kona side. Hope I 'm not offending any Hilo divers...but...Kona and the Kohala coast are the areas known for diving on the Big Island.

Hi Dive Partner:

Last weeekend the water temp near Hilo was 77 degrees. Not to bad with a 5/3 mm (I believe in my comfort).

Aloha DivePartner1!

It was 79 degrees off the Leeward side of Oahu last Saturday.
