In my opinion, the #1 shop on island - There's a reason I joined the Dive Oahu club while stationed on island. The store staff are always friendly and helpful and the boat crews are always awesome. I've done 8 dives with DO and each one has been great. They really try to make it an enjoyable experience for everyone. As a certified diver, I've seen them doing a thorough and safe session with Discover Scuba and Open Water students, not appearing to rush through instruction which unfortunately I've seen at other dive shops around the world. Even on island I've seen some eyebrow raising practices at other shops and for all those reasons I'm loyal to DO.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - Everything about this experience was absolutely perfect. From start to finish, the crew was professional, welcoming, and genuinely made the day feel special.
A huge thank you to Nacho and Ella who went above and beyond to help arrange my underwater photography. They were incredibly helpful, patient, and made sure I had everything I needed to capture the experience with ease.
The entire team created a smooth, enjoyable, and memorable outing. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a seamless and well-supported experience on the water.

Great experience for the... - Great experience for the two tank shallow reef dives. Really enjoyed the whole crew. Everything was set up by the crew so it was literally just walk on the boat and then throw your gear on a minute before you jump in. They changed tanks and did all the clean up- no need to lug anything anywhere. Would love to dive with them again next time I’m in Oahu. Thanks Nacho!

Great Value and Great Experience - Excellent team of kind and understanding professionals. Everyone from the front office to Captain Nacho and instructors Jeff and Josh 1 were very welcoming and awesome. Shout out to the 30 dolphins that were kind enough to wait for the surface interval to start playing around the boat!

Excellent Beginner-Friendly and Personal Dive Experience - Ami, Justin, and Adam were excellent dive masters and captain. Even when the weather wasn’t permitting, we still had a highly personal and unique experience. Personally, I felt like I was among friends. My girlfriend and I felt very comfortable with the team, even with very few dives under our belt. Thanks you!

Perfect all around - I had the absolute best experience diving with Dive Oahu today. My husband and I joined their two tank shallow reef dive charter, and it was easily one of the most welcoming and enjoyable dive trips I have ever been on. I have scuba dived all over the world, and the professionalism, kindness, and fun energy from this crew really stood out.
My husband attempted to snorkel, and the staff went above and beyond to make sure he felt comfortable despite his fear of the water and worries about seasickness. A huge thank you to Patrick, who showed incredible patience, kindness, and the perfect bedside manner while helping him. It meant so much to us.
I originally chose Dive Oahu because I met their team at a scuba diving convention and immediately fell in love with the generosity and positive vibes they brought to their booth. Every year they treated me like a long time friend. When I finally dove with them in person today, that same family atmosphere was there with every single staff member on the boat and in the shop. After this trip, I can honestly say Dive Oahu feels like family now.
A special shoutout to Captain Adam for his incredible hospitality both at conventions and on the boat. He brings the perfect balance of professionalism, humor, and genuine friendliness that makes you feel welcome the moment you step aboard.
I also want to recognize Jeff, who was teaching a Discover Scuba Diving course on the boat. Watching him work with his students was impressive. He was professional, attentive, and clearly passionate about helping new divers succeed. His humor and relaxed attitude made it feel like meeting a long lost friend.
And of course thank you to Jacob (aka Sir Fabio), our scuba tour guide, who did an amazing job guiding us through the reefs. He found nudibranchs, eels, and some absolutely gigantic sea turtles, and made the dive both exciting and relaxed.
From start to finish, the entire experience was fantastic. If you are looking for scuba diving in Oahu, snorkeling tours, discover scuba experiences, or reef dives with a professional and friendly crew, Dive Oahu is the place to go.
I cannot wait for my next dive trip with Dive Oahu.

Great time - Totally worth it if you have non-scuba family with you. Justin gave my family on the surface a wonderful experience while Melissa led my son and I on the scuba dive. Nacho on the boat was a great help

Disappointed. - We were delayed 50 minutes because had no boats in the harbor. Then at the first dive, the dive master refused to give the diver enough weight to be able to dive. Not able to go down. On the second dive, was given more weights by the woman dive master so was able to dive. Very disappointed in the service.
