Incredible! We were first time divers and I was nervous but the instructors were so patient and kind! We found sea turtles almost right away and saw a lot of colorful fish. Wonderful time!

I hadn’t been on a dive since I was PADI certified twenty-$@&%# years ago and this was the best way for me to experience Hawaii’s waters and ease back into diving. The crew (Capt Nacho, Colton, Kevin, and Ami) were all very friendly, experienced, knowledgeable, and encouraging. I felt extremely safe and had an amazing time. I reoriented myself during the basic skills assessment mini-dive, then on the next dive I was completely comfortable while Colton guided us to Turtle Canyon. We stopped on the ocean floor and watched the sea turtles for a bit, it felt like we were in their living room. Next time I’m in Honolulu I’ll sign up for another dive with Dive Oahu.

My girlfriend and I did the discovery scuba diving with Dive Oahu and had a FANTASTIC time ! Our crew (Colton, Heather Capt. Nacho) did an excellent job at making it a memorable and fun experience. This was my girlfriend’s first time diving and she was extremely nervous and scared for her first time. Our instructor Colton did an AMAZING job with her, taking it slow and helping her step by step and always making her feel comfortable and safe. Our photographer Heather got some awesome photos and videos for us and also assisted in keeping the dive calm and safe. Our captain Nacho was funny and laid back and did a great job at accommodating us. Whether you are an experienced diver or a first timer I highly recommend you book with Dive Oahu, if you or anyone in your party is nervous I highly recommend you ask for Colton. I can’t express enough how he was patient and able to handle the situation with my nervous girlfriend. Overall, the crew was amazing, the dive location was amazing and I highly recommend Dive Oahu. 10/10 Experience - We will be back !

Nacho, Austin, Morgan and Ami were great. It was my first time diving. I was a bit nervous the first training session, but the 2nd dive was great.

Everyone we encountered at Dive Oahu was great. My husband and I signed up for the discovery dive experience. Jarod was our instructor and was very thorough. Safety was a top priority throughout our experience. My husband had a wonderful time on the dive. I didn’t complete it due to anxiety and sea sickness. Everyone on board continued to be patient and kind even after I threw up on the boat for the third time. They allowed me to switch to snorkeling with Heather which was also great. Overall we would highly recommend Dive Oahu!

This experience was incredible. First time diving and Colton and Ami were great! Saw 9 sea turtles! The instructors were clear and knowledgeable making the experience stress-free. Safety was a priority, and the guides did a wonderful job showing us many forms of sea life. Photography is available for a fee - uncertified divers are not allowed to bring their own camera for safety reasons. The crew of the boat was kind and helpful. Colton, Kevin, Heather, Ami, and Nacho were all fantastic. 10/10 recommend!!

Our family had a wonderful instructor (Ami) and captain (Nacho)
We loved the boat ride and they took excellent care of us!
Capt. Nacho heard there were whales in the area and made a point to help us go see them! That was such a bonus gift. During our dive we saw turtles, a reef shark, and so many fish. The water was crystal clear and the dive was a success. The team made sure everyone was set from equipment to snacks/beverages. I am so grateful that we felt safe, cared for, and that we had a great time seeing the sea life. Thank you!
