Outstanding experience! - If I could give more than five stars, I would. My open-water dive with One Ocean Diving off Oahu’s North Shore was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment I arrived, the professionalism, passion, and deep respect this team has for the ocean and its inhabitants were clear. Our guides, Gina and Katelin, were exceptional—knowledgeable, engaging, and genuinely inspiring. They didn’t just lead a dive; they led an education. Before we even got in the water, they shared so much about shark behavior, ocean conservation, and the critical role these misunderstood creatures play in maintaining balance in marine ecosystems. Once in the water, their calm confidence immediately put everyone at ease. You could tell they love what they do and believe deeply in their mission. Swimming among Galapagos and blacktip sharks—completely free in their own environment—was awe-inspiring. Any fear I expected melted away, replaced by a profound sense of respect and connection. What sets One Ocean apart is that this isn’t a thrill-seeking “shark dive.” It’s a powerful, perspective-changing experience that leaves you with a deeper appreciation for the ocean and the urgent need to protect it. If you have the chance to go, go. And if you’re lucky enough to have Gina and Katelin as your guides, you’ll walk away not just with incredible memories, but with a new understanding of how vital and magnificent sharks truly are.

You won’t regret it! - I was scared to death to do this, but this crew helped me feel so much better about getting in the water. Never once did I feel like I was in danger. It wasn’t like the movies portray, it was peaceful and beautiful. We plan on doing this again. I want to do better next time and I definitely won’t be so scared. Great education on the sharks too. We all need to do better to make sure sharks stay in our oceans.

Extraordinary!! - Our experience was nothing short of extraordinary!!! From start to finish the morning was epic. Hailey, Nate, Drew, & Brett were great. Very informative and made you feel safe the entire experience. We had some crazy swells our day out but Nate handled with confidence. In the water as well Hailey and Drew made you feel safe and ensured you had the best shark encounter. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to check something off your bucket list!!!

Big sharks, no bites! - I thought I would be nervous/ terrified, but the crew put everyone at ease as we made our way to the site. The guides gave us a lot of information about shark behaviour and marine biology, which helped to ease our nerves. The water was a bit rough due to the season, but that didn't stop anyone from getting the most out of the experience! We saw 1 Galapagos shark, 2 Tiger sharks and about 15 Sandbar sharks, so we had a great time! Don't be afraid, you only live once!

Amazing crew! Fantastic experience all around. - The crew was absolutely amazing!! I have always wanted to dive with sharks but my wife was rather nervous and they made it enjoyable for her! Once in a lifetime experience for most but we’ll definitely be back to dive again in the future! Can’t say enough good things about how they approached everything. You can tell they really love the sharks and the ocean and the passion is real. So much fun!!

Amazing Snorkeling Experience! - It was an amazing experience! The crew was super friendly and helpful throughout the trip. We had about an hour in the water with several opportunities for free snorkeling, and we always felt completely safe. We also learned so much about these incredible creatures. Totally recommend this experience!
