Open Water, Advanced Open Water and Nitrox Certs…

What a crazy busy weekend it has been. I know it’s Wednesday now but this week, I’ve been going non-stop.

First, Lacie and Bryan got in last week and we got started cranking on their Advanced Open Water and Nitrox Courses. These guys were stoked to be diving here on Oahu and if Bryan has his way they might sell their home in Texas and move out here!!

We dived Turtle Canyons, Horseshoe Reef, The YO-257 wreck, Kewalo Pipe, The Corsiar Wreck and Anglers Reef. Pretty amazing set of dives and these two were stoked come Monday night when they finally finished it all.

I also had three Open Water students joining me in the waters off of Waikiki. Jeff, Sam and Jessica earned their stripes this weekend and are ready to join our dive club for more adventures. Hopefully Sam will send us some photos of NE Shipwrecks when she heads back to Cape Cod in a few weeks! Congrats to all the students this weekend and thanks so much for diving with Kaimana Divers….. here are some photos (big thanks to Matt for the last two)





Big thanks to Nav for all of his Divemaster work this weekend and many Mahalos to Captain Carl on the Kahala Kai and Captain John on the Honey Girl. Images are from our Night Dive in Hawaii Kai on Monday!

OUTSTANDING!

That really is the only way I can describe my day of diving yesterday. I was met bright and early by Jose who is on R and R from Iraq. Throughout the years he has dived the world and is now a Rescue Diver! Congrats bro and thanks for serving…

While his wife and kids were sleeping in, Jose and I clocked two amazing Oahu scuba dives. First we jumped in at the wreck of the Seatiger and saw our resident frogfish, turtle, spotted eagle ray, undulated moray and even a dwarf moray. Next up was Horseshoe reef where my man got to cruise with an octopus, two sharks, a zebra moray, snowflake moray and countless other critters. The smile on his face was all the thanks I needed…. check out the photos!

I think I forgot to mention we saw some whales surfacing on our interval. I’m gonna miss those beasts when they cruise North for the summer. Big Mahalos to the crew aboard the Kahala Kai. I love my job….

Easy,

Manta Ray on Oahu….. YESSS!!

Great day out on the water today….

Natalie brought her brothers Mark and Lars out diving and we had conditions that were perfecto for doing a set of drift dives. Captain Joe took us out in Hawaii Kai and on our first dive at Spitting Caves we spotted this little frogfish…. look how stoked Natalie looks!


While Mark was busy counting turtles on our next dive we were busy seeing the BIG GUY!!!! Who knew Oahu Scuba Diving could be this SWEET! Check out the video below….

Big Mahalos to Nat, Lars and Mark for diving today….
