10/10 must do! - No complaints for this awesome experience! The crew (Ani, Ro, Sava & Sava’s dog) had an upbeat and super professional vibe that put us at ease. Personally I have some fear of the open water but I felt very comfortable and encouraged to face my fears. My husband is an experienced scuba diver and felt right at home getting close to the species of sharks we were lucky to share the water with. Outside of the thrill of sharks swimming so close, the color of blue in the open water is beyond comparison. It’s a must see. Will definitely go again when we find ourselves back on O’ahu! Mahalo!

Outstanding experience - Been diving for 20 years and this experience is at the top. Super professional, extremely knowledgeable, friendly, this company is WAY better than the rest. If you’re in HI and want a top notch experience, this is the company. Make sure you tip Danny and Stacy.

An experience of a lifetime....that we hope to have again! - Our family of 5 had a dive on July 6th. This was our oldest son's second time with Hawaii Adventure Diving. From the time we arrived on the dock, we were greeted by friendly crew who obviously love their jobs (in particular Nick, Stacy and Terry). We had a safety briefing and started out. As soon as we arrived at our dive location, a beautiful tiger shark made her appearance. We had to stay on the yellow safety line, but were fortunate to see another tiger and several Galapagos sharks as well. The safety divers were always close enough to redirect the sharks if they got too close and we never felt unsafe. We opted for pictures and I am so glad we did! Being in the water with these majestic animals swimming only a short distance below and around us was the thrill of a lifetime. Thank you so much and we absolutely cannot wait for an opportunity to dive with you again!

Shark diving 🦈 - Must have made once ✅ Very friendly tour team ✅ Unique experience ✅ Photos can be purchased with BUT had a GoPro with it and thus already made photos and videos. In my opinion, anyone who can help themselves does not need to buy the photos from the team. My wife and I had decided to do it. First the thought was if it made sense before we both got the same photos. In the end, it was. We could use a flat rate of 5 photos per person of the 40 or so we bought. And all that for $80 per person. As I said, too expensive

Swim the Apex Predators - Forget the cage that’s child’s play haha. Shark cage we did 8 years ago but when I saw this I had to book! The Captain and guides were amazing and knowledgeable. I was the first one in after the guides but I did experience some fear lol. Once I got in and swam around for 5 minute's I signaled my 14 year old daughter to get in and we had an amazing experience. Highly recommended!
