Gear, Instruction, Reef dive
If you have not dived in at least a year, take a refresher course paired with a shore reef dive in Kaanapali. Certified divers can also join the group, and groups are kept small.
Minimum age is 12+, and you must speak and understand English. You must be able to carry your own equipment to and from the ocean (about 20–75 lbs) and complete required waivers in advance. If you answer yes on the medical questionnaire, you may need a doctor's release before you can dive.
Divers must not ascend above 1,000 feet for at least 12 hours after a single dive, and 18 hours after deep or multiple dives. Failure to follow these guidelines can result in serious, potentially life-threatening medical complications.
All sales final.
All participants must complete the online waivers in advance. If you answer “YES” on the medical questionnaire, you cannot dive without a doctor’s release; the operator provides a 6-hour grace period from the time of booking that applies only to medical questionnaire issues.
Arrive ready to go in the water, with your swimsuit and sunscreen already on. The operator starts promptly at the booked time; arriving late is treated as a no-show and cannot be rescheduled or refunded.
Use the “Get Directions” button provided with your confirmation/waiver links for the meeting location. The operator notes that other map locations found online may send you to the wrong place.

Ty stands out as an exceptional instructor who clearly knows how to make divers feel safe and comfortable, whether it's someone's very first time or they're shaking off 25 years of rust. Multiple reviewers mention feeling nervous initially, then completely at ease once Ty's thorough land-based instruction and patient approach kicked in. He takes time with the basics in shallow water before progressing, constantly checking in underwater to ensure everyone's doing okay. Jamie also gets strong praise for being informative and prioritizing safety while keeping things fun. The marine life encounters are consistently spectacular. The Shark and Turtle Reef dive at Mala Wharf gets particularly enthusiastic reviews, with divers spotting countless turtles, white-tip reef sharks (including babies), moray eels, and colorful fish tucked into caves and crevices. What really elevates the experience is Ty's knowledge of where to look—he points out creatures that guests would definitely miss on their own. The intro and refresher courses seem perfectly designed too, giving people confidence before committing to full certification. Several reviewers came back for multiple dives, which speaks volumes about the quality of the experience.
I had a great first scuba diving experience with Sean as my instructor. I was a little nervous at first, but he explained everything clearly and helped me feel calm and confident before getting in the water. Once we were in the ocean, he took the time to make sure I felt comfortable and let me practice the skills until I felt ready. We only descended once I was relaxed, which I really appreciated. Throughout the dive he stayed close, always checking that we were doing well and feeling okay. Overall it was a really positive experience, and I’m very glad he was my instructor for my first dive. I would definitely recommend him to anyone trying scuba diving for the first time.
