Dive Kauai is a Poipu-based scuba operator on the south shore of Kauai, Hawaii, offering guided dives, discover scuba experiences, certification courses, and a Divemaster internship. The company provides PADI programs including Discover Scuba in pool settings at the Sheraton Kauai Resort and Grand Hyatt Resort, an introductory two-tank ocean experience for new divers, a Two Tank South Island Boat Adventure aboard the Ho'onui catamaran for certified divers, and PADI Advanced Open Water and Divemaster internship courses.
Instructors deliver personalized instruction in small groups, covering essential skills, safety briefings, and local marine environment orientation. Pool-based Discover Scuba sessions focus on confined-water skill practice and confidence-building before ocean dives. Ocean experiences reach depths appropriate for introductory training, with the introductory program allowing dives to about 40 feet under supervision. The Two Tank South Island Boat Adventure emphasizes reef exploration and sea turtle sightings while operating from a dedicated dive vessel.
Dive Kauai includes gear options with transparent pricing; small-group sizes limit diver-to-instructor ratios to prioritize safety and attention. The Divemaster internship combines leadership training, hands-on dive operation experience, and professional development for candidates pursuing a dive career. The PADI Advanced Open Water course runs across two days, featuring five dives including navigation and deep dives.
Located in Poipu, Dive Kauai serves resort guests and visiting divers with scheduled pool sessions and ocean departures, maintaining local knowledge, PADI-aligned curricula, and a focus on safe, educational, and enjoyable scuba experiences. Booking is available for resort guests and independent travelers conveniently throughout the year.
