Scuba Diving Spring Break 2013…… Wooooooooo!!!

waikikidivephotoDiving in Hawaii is just one of those experiences that is hard to imagine if you have never done it. So much to think about and so many critters coming in from all angles. This spring has been no exception. Whales breaching, turtles cruising, dolphins spinning and all set against the backdrop of a blue sky and a shining sun.

Man, it’s great to be able to live and dive everyday here on Oahu.

Lot’s of new sightings just this past few weeks and our longtime diver Susanna was fortunate enough to snap this photo of a Flying Gurnard while doing some Oahu scuba diving with the KD crew last week. These critters are super rare and I can only recall about 4 other sightings in the past 8 years. Just goes to show you that you never know who might join you for a dive.

Diving on Oahu: New experiences and new friends!

It’s amazing what a new year can bring….

Diving here on Oahu tends to be a bit of an adventure on any given day but we have had some incredible dives lately. Take for example the sound of whales (not uncommon in winter months) but on 3 occasions this month they have been just a few hundred yards from the boat.

Then, last week we dropped in and as I turned around to check on our group a Hawaiian Monk Seal came cruising by. It’s such a thrill to see them swimming and playing in the ocean and it’s certainly a dive I won’t soon forget. Here’s a photo I managed to snap of this 1.5 year old male Kekoa last week

Diving in Honolulu…… It may surprise you!

So, you have been to Waikiki……

You experienced the emotions and history at Pearl Harbor. You climbed Diamond Head and took in the amazing view. If you were lucky enough, you may have even caught some big waves on the North Shore. What’s left?

Ever thought of scuba diving in Hawaii? Lot’s of folks think you need to drop big money to become a certified PADI scuba diver but nothing could be further from the truth. With our Intro Dive any novice can safely explore our reefs and be diving with turtles, octopus and colorful fish in no time!

Honolulu is really the best city in the US for diving. It blows me away that within a 5 minute boat ride from our harbor even the most unseasoned or rusty diver can be scuba diving in our warm waters in no time. Our friendly PADI Instructors and Dive Masters are ready to take you on the adventure of a lifetime……. come check out our crew!

Before you know it, you could be diving and exploring the ocean as a scuba diver here in Hawaii. From first time divers to more advanced scuba diving trips we can handle it all…… Take a peek at what people have been saying about Kaimana Divers on YELP! and Trip Advisor.

 

 

Black Friday….. With Green Sea Turtles.

I always sleep so well on Thanksgiving night. It’s awesome when you get to go diving with a crew of good kids then next morning in Hawaii. Oahu was shining like a gem this AM with NO WIND AND CALM SEAS. Denise, Kavan and Grant joined me for a fun time scuba diving at Turtle Canyons.

 

Dropping in with nothing but fins I found the mother load:

Scuba Wedding on Oahu? You know it!

It’s been over a year since the Love Gurus here at Kaimana Divers did our first underwater scuba wedding with Robert and Ging. The couple was nice enough to remind me and I was able to wish them a Happy 1st Anniversary:

Love is in the air again here in Hawaii and we’ll be tying the knot underwater in a few short weeks with Alan and Amanda. So stoked to be able to:

A) Dive in Hawaii everyday for 7+ Years!

B) Be an ordained Rev and make this happen for good friends

C) Enjoy all the Aloha that comes along with a picture perfect Hawaii wedding!

WIshing everyone a great fall and early Happy Holidays:

Fall Review Drive….
