Best Dive Experience Ever!!! - Excellent dive charter with Chandler, our dive master!!! With less than a dozen open water dives under our belts, Chandler provided a dive experience that was fun, and safe for us. The dive party was small, which allowed for a very personalized experience. I always rank feeling safe the top priority when diving, and Chandler was by far the best dive master that my wife and I have experienced. I recommend Aaron's Dive Shop to everyone!!! You will be impressed.

Now I have to come back. - The service from everyone at the shop is phenomenal. I really appreciate the way these professionals bring extra comfort and fun into diving. Kai was an amazing buddy/dive master. He showed me some things I have never seen before and I am so beyond grateful. He also gave me great suggestions for where to go snorkeling. Stephen or Steven was a great captain and made my mom feel safe enough to go snorkeling when I wasn’t there and gave her great conversation while I was in my dives :) Thank you to Tony as well! He doesn’t work there but maybe one of you at the shop can pass along my thank you. He is truly a special diver and he made my dive 100x better. You guys know what you’re doing and I appreciate that. Thank you for a great experience! I honestly thought I would walk away from these dives not wanting to come back. It’s the complete opposite. I HAVE TO COME BACK. One more thank you and blessings to you all. Mahalo!

Great day out! - Great day out with the crew. Abby, Chris and Garrett took great care of us. Chris took my first time divers out and they had a great time. Always felt safe and had fun. Lovely fresh pineapple treat at the end. Highly recommend!

Nudibranches and turtles and sharks, oh my - Went on a dive of fantasy reef yesterday with Aaron's. Had a blast. Madi, our dive master pointed out some amazing sea life including several sea turtles and some small white tipped reef sharks. Everyone inside the shop is so helpful and enthusiastic. If you're on Kailua said then this is the shop for you. If you're not on Kailua side, go there anywhere.

Small boat, but great crew!! - This was our teenagers 3rd and 4th open water dive as certified divers-The crew was great. They were very accommodating and attentive. We like them better than some other shop crews. They also gave a military discount which was awesome. We actually booked this through the Marine Corps base in Kaneohe . The current was crazy and the swells were really high, but they were very calm in managing things. Location away from the busyness of Waikiki is awesome! Also, we had two friends who did discover scuba diving, and they did a great job with them.

Fantastic dive with Aaron's - Had a great time with Aaron's dive shop in Oahu. Did two shallow reef dives in the late morning. Conditions were excellent, Christian, Molly, Ken, and Felipe were fantastic dive masters who led the group well. Easy parking at the beach. Got to see a few green sea turtles also!

Dive with Aaron's - Had a great time diving with Aaron's Dive Shop going to the Corsair Plane Crash site at about 110 feet. I joined the club and would give these highlights about Aaron's and the dive: 1. Corsair is a small wreck from 1945 but the sea life and amazing colors make the dive so relaxing and interesting. 2. The dive guides Maddi and Brian were super helpful and are truly guides and not dive "baby sitters". They allow a diver to explore while also keeping a watchful eye for safety. 3. The captain, Garrett, is amazingly helpful on the ship helping in all kinds of ways from helping repairs, ensuring dive gear is ready and transfer of equipment to the next tank even if it's your own equipment...very helpful! 4. On Sunday, there were about 10-12 divers which made it fairly crowded on the boat and difficult to find seating with all the gear. I hope sometime they get a bigger boat :-) 5. After diving, they gave everyone a heated towel which was really nice... 6. Lastly, Aaron's really promotes a pleasurable and safe diving environment. They are guides while they also respect each individual capability and experience. Even for my birthday dive with the club, they allow diving within the birthday month versus just on your day of your birthday. Thanks Aaron's for the great dive, professionalism and support!

Corsair plane wreck and reef dives - Awesome dive shop great crew Chandler and Gary were very helpful and accommodating. 1 deep dive at the Corsair plane wreck and 3 shallow reef dives in a day with these guys was easily achiveable if you have limited time.

Great place for beginner - advanced divers - I finished my PADI open-water checkout dives 1-4 with Instructor Chris and Boat Captain Matt. They were both super welcoming and knowledgeable of the area. They made sure I was comfortable in the water and answered all of my questions promptly. I was recommended Aaron's by several friends and they did not disappoint. On the boat I was accompanied by many very experienced divers. They were all regulars at Aaron's and were also super welcoming. It seemed that they had a blast as well! I will definitely be diving with them again!
