Do You Offer Two Tank Intro Dives on Oahu? |
Scuba Diving off the coastlines of Oahu provides some unusual dive site options for scuba divers. Oahu is the most populous island in Hawaii and as such has always had more commercial activity in the way of boating than the other islands. With the increased boat traffic surrounding Oahu comes the increased likelihood of boat and ship accidents and thus Oahu has numerous dive sites that dive to underwater shipwrecks. These dive sites are extremely interesting as they provide an excellent home for sea life. Typically these dives are reserved for experienced divers. Oahu dive sites are some of the most sought after dive locations in the islands.
Obviously many visitors to Oahu would love to dive but have no experience. Consequently there are a multitude of dive companies offering tours to learn how to dive for the first time and also dive classes that will allow you to become a certified diver. It is not every island that will actually take you out on a boat for a two-tank introductory dive for the completely uninitiated but on Oahu these dives are very popular.
The other interesting thing about Oahu dives is that great diving locations can be found on all parts of the island. This will often mean that certain Oahu dives may be available when sea conditions may not be ideal for other dive locations. Having dive locations with exotic names such as the following make it clear that there are a plethora of dive locations to visit and enjoy: Mahi Wreck and Makaha Caverns, Black Rock and Land of Oz, Airplane and Kea'au Corners, Haleiwa Wall and Turtle Cleaning Station, Angler's Reef and Koko Craters, Baby Barge and Fantasy Reef, Corsair Wreck and China Wall Drift, Sea Tiger Wreck and Turtle Canyons, The Trench and many more.
Tom's Tips - Oahu Diving Tours
Pick up and return to your dive shop is usually included as a service.
Dives to shipwrecks can often be fairly deep and can be quite tricky, especially if you work your way into the wrecks and therefore should only be considered by the most experienced divers.
If you are a first time diver consider doing the two tank introductory dives, as the second tank is usually the most interesting when you are a bit more relaxed with the equipment.
