Quick Details
Explore Kona’s underwater wonders with a morning of diving on Hale Kai, our comfortable custom-built 34ft. catamaran! Our local dive sites (ranging from Pawai Bay to Makako Bay) feature dramatic drop-offs, bustling coral reefs, stunning structure and a dazzling variety of marine animals. Divers can often see octopus, sea turtles, eels, butterflyfish, nudibranchs, scorpionfish, frogfish and a stunning array of endemic species unique to the Hawaiian Islands. Lucky divers have the chance to see big animals like sharks, mantas, dolphins, monk seals and eagle rays!
We keep our groups small, with no more than 5 divers per divemaster. More personalized attention helps make diving safer- and more fun! Our passionate and knowledgeable guides love to share the marvels of our underwater home. Are you a critter nerd? You found the right company.
Dive site selections are made day-of, based on current ocean conditions as well as the interests and experience levels of our divers. Diving with us multiple days? Conditions allowing, we’ll try to take you to different dive sites every day. We have nearly 40 to choose from!

Private Guide
Want to set your own pace without worrying about anyone else? A private guide can help personalize your experience so you get exactly the kind of dive you want. Fewer divers in a group can also make for more intimate and engaging animal interactions. A great option for photographers trying to get the perfect shot.
IMPORTANT SAFETY REMINDER
Scuba diving is an extreme sport and restrictions must be adhered to before, during and after to mitigate potential health risks. Post-diving, this includes flying, going to altitude, freediving and other activities that could contribute to Decompression Sickness.
