A Must Go if you are interested! - Josh our instructor was amazing! I felt well taken care of, safe, and had a blast The water was warm and we saw even saw an Eel. The shop felt clean and the staff at the Dive Center was very helpful in selecting the correct size of gear that we each needed. Instructions were clear and very helpful. Can't wait to do again!!!

Beginner Shallow Reef Dive - Beginner diver taking my 15 year old diving for the first time. Training and safety precautions were excellent. Josh was great at explaining and demonstrating the basics of diving. Very choppy sea and conditions were challenging, but April and Jim were very patient and their confidence was reassuring to inexperienced divers. We had a great time. I highly recommend Waikiki Dive Center.

James Garner - Excellent Instructor!!! - Over Mothers Day weekend my Daughter Melia was certified by James Garner. I was certified in Hawaii 30 years ago so this was pretty special for me. James allowed me to watch her training and even go to the beach and watch her train from shore. He had amazing stories from Military Dive Combat to sharing pictures of wreck dives. He was very thorough in his training which made me very comfortable that Melia was trained properly. In fact, James is by far the best instructor I have ever met and would highly recommend him to anyone interested in becoming Padi certified. As a father, I was trying to help remind her of the proper order to setup her gear, and Jim quickly reminded me that she needed to learn on her own. Melia was mad at me because Jim made her do it 5 times in a row without me speaking!!!! The best part of her training was I was able to join the final 2 dives and watch her get certified!!! That you very much Jim for allowing me to share that memory!

Doesn’t Get Better! - Spent two awesome days 4 dives competing my Advanced Open Water Diver course including Nitrox certification. Cristian was my instructor throughout and made everything easy to understand and kept things fun but professional. The entire crew at Waikiki Dive Center was great and easy to work with. Enjoyed myself so much I signed up for more.
