##About

The best wreck diving experience in Hawaiian waters! Join us on a guided tour of a stunning wreck on the south shore of Oahu followed by a beautiful guided tour of one of Honolulu's favorite reef sites. Start your day with the best diving experience offered on Oahu!

###Wreck locations include the following:

  • The Sea Tiger - Hawaii's deepest recreational diving wreck! The 189' Sea Tiger rests in 123 feet of water while the superstructure and deck are at depths of 60-90', offering great diving!

  • The YO-257 & San Pedro - These two ships lay side by side with about 50 yards between them. The YO-257 rests in 115 feet of water while the superstructure and deck are at depths of 70-90'. The San Pedro is a bit shallower, 65-85'. This site can experience strong currents and is only dove when conditions are ideal.

###Specialty long range charters on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays include the following:

  • The Ewa Pinnacles & The Navy Tug - Embark on a guided tour of the Ewa Pinnacles, an ancient lava pinnacle formation covered with Hawaiian corals and surrounded by fish in 75-90' deep water. After your surface interval, come with us to the Nashua, a Navy tug boat sunk in 2012 as an artificial reef in 65'.

  • The Corsair & Fantasy Reef - Dive a WWII fighter plane, the Corsair that sits in 115' of water in an upright position. The plane was ditched back in 1948 while on a routine mission from Pearl Harbor. The water may be fairly rough and currents can be strong so this Oahu SCUBA dive is conditions permitting. After your surface interval, come with us to Fantasy Reef, one of Honolulu's favorite reef sites in 25-50' of water.

  • The LCU Wreck & Fantasy Reef - Glide along the LCU Wreck, an upside down Landing Craft Utility that is surrounded by artificial reef Z-blocks in 75-90' of water. After your surface interval, come with us to Fantasy Reef, one of Honolulu's favorite reef sites in 25-50' of water.

  • The Navy Tug & Keehi Pipe - Come with us to the Nashua, a Navy tug boat sunk in 2012 as an artificial reef in 65'. After your surface interval, come with us to Keehi Pipe, another of Honolulu's favorite reef sites in 25-40' of water.
