You are safe to dive after your flight in. Just be sure to wait 12 hours after 1 dive, and 18 hours after 2 dives, before flying after a dive.

You might be able to — the main concern is whether you can equalize your ears and sinuses comfortably. If you’re uncertain, check in with us and your physician.

Not necessarily, but we recommend a wetsuit for comfort. Maui’s water temperatures usually range from about 72–82°F depending on the time of year. If you tend to get cold easily, a light wetsuit can make a big difference for warmth and buoyancy. Wetsuits are provided and included.

April and May are the coldest months at around 72–73°F. February averages about 77°F. December is around 79°F, and September is the warmest at about 82°F.

While we can’t make guarantees, the dive sites we choose are excellent habitats for turtles, rays, colorful reef fish and more. Your chances are very good!

We will provide a medical questionnaire for you to fill out. If you have any questions regarding the quest questionnaire, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Typically, it’s 3 full days (5–6 hours each day). If you’ve already done your academics/pool work elsewhere (“referral”), we can do it in 2 half-days.

Yes. If you schedule your certification course within 90 days of your intro dive, that dive can count toward your certification. In practice, we will usually have you repeat the three required skills to make sure you feel comfortable and confident moving forward.

We like to keep our classes small — generally capped around 4 divers to make sure you get quality instructor attention.

We will send you the location in your confirmation email when you book your dive. Most sites have a short walk (around 150 yards) carrying gear; please contact us if this is a concern.

Yes. Night dives are offered as shore dives only, and you must be Open Water certified to participate. Night dives are typically one tank, with the option to upgrade to a two-tank twilight/night dive

Shore dive sites typically go 20-40 ft (on the easier side); ideal for relaxed exploration and spotting reef creatures in a stress-free setting.

Check-in is at the Mala boat ramp. For morning trips, check-in time is 6:15 am; afternoon trips check-in time is 1:00 pm. The boat leaves as soon as everyone is aboard.

Yes — certified divers must present proof of certification. You will be asked to fill out a waiver after booking.

We strongly recommend doing a shore dive first (if you haven’t dived in 1+ year) to make sure you’re comfortable before heading out on the boat. If it has been more than 3 years since you last dove, you must have a shore dive first. If it has been more than 1 year, we reserve the right to require a refresher course.

Our boat is U.S. Coast Guard–rated for up to 15 people. We operate with a maximum of 12 passengers and 3 crew onboard.

Boat dives typically range 45-75 ft and we allow up to 70 minutes bottom time (subject to air supply and dive computer limits). See dive site page for more information.

We have a dedicated freshwater rinse station, and you’re encouraged to bring your underwater camera if you’d like.
