About Try Scuba Diving Honolulu - Magic Island
Try scuba diving for the first time at Magic Island in Ala Moana Beach Park, just a short distance from Waikiki. No certification or previous experience is required, making this a simple introduction to breathing and moving underwater without needing to join a boat dive.
The experience begins with a safety briefing and equipment practice in shallow water. Once you are comfortable, your instructor leads you into the ocean from the beach and stays with the group throughout the dive. Guests who would rather stay at the surface may choose to snorkel instead.
Children may participate even if a parent does not plan to dive. A parent or guardian must be present at check-in to complete the required waiver forms and remain nearby during the tour.
