About This Adventure

The Oahu Boat Diving Schedule

Afternoon dives are usually two 30-40ft dives. These dives are good for people who are getting back into diving after a break, trying diving for the first time, doing open water referral dives, or simply don’t want to get up early! Arrive at the Waianae small boat harbor at 12:30.

Oahu Scuba Diving

We do not have a set schedule and like to change up the dive sites often. We love this job! You can make specific scuba dive site requests when you sign up for a scuba charter, but unless you book a private boat we cannot guarantee any particular site. We can promise you this though: we’ll go to the best dive sites that day based on the diving conditions and taking into account all the dive sites requests that we get. We truly do want you to have the best diving day possible.

If you are interested in enriching your scuba diving experience, ask your dive instructor if there is a specialty course that you can work on during your dives. You can dive in Oahu and go home with an additional scuba certification at the same time! Check out some of the Oahu dive sites we visit.

Our Signature Oahu Diving Service

Drinks and light snacks will be present on the boat, especially water. Disposable/Reusable flash underwater cameras are available upon request in the shop. We suggest you wear sunscreen and you may want bring a towel. If you chill easily, a windbreaker or extra shirt between dives is a good thing to bring. If you are prone to motion sickness, we suggest taking an anti nausea medication like Dramamine before your charter leaves the dock. If you are booked on the Sea Fox (8:30am and 1:00pm dives) then there is a dry, enclosed cabin as well as a diving deck for you to store your personal items.

At the boat dock, the captain will give a boat safety briefing. Of course, the Divemaster will give a thorough dive site and safety briefing on the way to the dive site. He or she will also be on hand underwater to point out interesting dive site features and as an extra safety precaution. Certified divers however, are ultimately responsible for their own safety. After the dives the Divemaster/Instructor will help fill out and stamp logbooks. If you are a certified diver and would like Island Divers to be directly responsible for your safety underwater, we would be happy to provide you with a professional private dive buddy. Private instructors $250 per trip in addition to the cost of the dive charter.
