About Waikiki Dive Center - Discover 2 Tank Boat Dive
Try two reef dives off Oahu's south shore with Waikiki Dive Center, with beginner, certified diver and snorkeler options plus gear included.
Take your first breaths beneath the surface on a two-tank boat dive designed to make scuba feel welcoming and exciting. This experience is open to all skill levels, from complete beginners building confidence to certified divers looking for a relaxed reef adventure. Guests who prefer to stay closer to the surface may choose to snorkel instead.
Transportation is provided between the check in at the Dive Shop and the harbor! Tours depart from Kewalo Basin Harbor or Maunalua Bay depending on your tour.
Both dives take place at natural reef sites off Oahu's south shore, where green sea turtles, schools of rare Hawaiian fish and plenty of octopus may be seen. The maximum depth is forty feet.
