Niuhi Dive Charters

Niuhi Dive Charters operates a schedule of two-tank dive charters and is featured on The Adventure Collective. The operation offers five distinct 2-tank trips: 2 Tank Mid Shore Dives AM; 2 Tank Off Shore Dives AM; 2 Tank Oriskany Dives AM; 2 Tank Nearshore Dives AM; and 2 Tank Nearshore Dives PM. These trip names identify the formats and general timing available to divers.
Niuhi Dive Charters focuses on repeatable, clearly defined itineraries built around two-dive outings. The inclusion of an Oriskany trip highlights access to a named wreck site. Morning and afternoon nearshore departures provide scheduling flexibility for divers who prefer different times of day. Off shore and mid shore options expand the range of dive environments users can select.
As a business featured on The Adventure Collective, Niuhi Dive Charters is presented alongside curated adventure operators, which helps divers discover the available trips. The charter's published trip names make it straightforward for divers to choose between nearshore, mid shore, off shore, and wreck-focused 2-tank experiences.
All information here reflects the trip offerings and public recognition; specifics such as exact departure times, pricing, equipment rental, required certifications, or vessel details are provided directly by the operator and should be confirmed with Niuhi Dive Charters before booking.
The term '2-tank' indicates each listed trip includes two dives per outing, allowing visits to multiple sites in one day. Divers should review the operator's official trip descriptions for site features, depth expectations, booking requirements, and safety information before reserving a spot online.
