Great service!…read more December 30, 2015 We were able to take advantage of this place because of the military status of my sister-in-law, my late brother was in the U.S. Army. This is a one-stop place that offer special discounts to some of the best attractions and activities on Oahu and the neighboring islands. MWR stands for morale, welfare, recreation for Hawaii military personnel. We were assisted by an employee named Joshua. They had a numbering system to which you take a number and you will be helped when your number is called. We didn't know to do this but he came out and helped us immediately once we walked in the door. Perhaps it wasn't that busy at the moment yet. Joshua was helpful, witty and informative. He gave us pricing, best deals, and answered all our questions. He was patient with us and assisted us till the booking was finalized. We inquired about a tour at the Pearl Harbor, the Polynesian Cultural Center, and a place for a luau. We finally settled on Paradise Cove for a luau and some of our family members are going to the Polynesian Cultural Center. Aside from luaus they also offered discounts on shows, dinner cruises, tours and activities on land and on the water, event tickets, mainland theme parks and lots more! Glad our military have this place to get cheap tickets.. they deserve much more. This is located at the Naval Station in Pearl Harbor. Thank you, Joshua! Review #0406

I was able to join the dives as a certified diver. Ed was the kids instructor and we all enjoyed diving with him. He was very patient and clearly communicated the dive lesson skills and goals for each dive. Our boat diver was Captain Demitri (Capt. D) and he was another fantastic person that made my kids have an awesome dive experience. A+ for all of these guys at Hawaiian Diving Adventures for there excellent customer service! You dont need to go anywhere else for any of your diving needs.

Since it's been 12-15 years since my last dive, I truly appreciate Callum's simple/clear instruction. He gave us all confidence before even that first dive; a terrific experience, for sure. The whole team was careful and appropriate for planning the best time for a dive, given the recent storms. Captain D is super friendly and drives the boat to areas that we could see dolphins- no one was in a hurry that we had to be back to the port, knowing that we wanted to see dolphins and maybe a whale off in the distance.

My husband and I joined their two…read moretank shallow reef dive charter, and it was easily one of the most welcoming and enjoyable dive trips I have ever been on. I have scuba dived all over the world, and the professionalism, kindness, and fun energy from this crew really stood out. My husband attempted to snorkel, and the staff went above and beyond to make sure he felt comfortable despite his fear of the water and worries about seasickness. A huge thank you to Patrick, who showed incredible patience, kindness, and the perfect bedside manner while helping him. It meant so much to us. I originally chose Dive Oahu because I met their team at a scuba diving convention and immediately fell in love with the generosity and positive vibes they brought to their booth. Every year they treated me like a long time friend. When I finally dove with them in person today, that same family atmosphere was there with every single staff member on the boat and in the shop. After this trip, I can honestly say Dive Oahu feels like family now. A special shoutout to Captain Adam for his incredible hospitality both at conventions and on the boat. He brings the perfect balance of professionalism, humor, and genuine friendliness that makes you feel welcome the moment you step aboard. I also want to recognize Jeff, who was teaching a Discover Scuba Diving course on the boat. Watching him work with his students was impressive. He was professional, attentive, and clearly passionate about helping new divers succeed. His humor and relaxed attitude made it feel like meeting a long lost friend. And of course thank you to Jacob (aka Sir Fabio), our scuba tour guide, who did an amazing job guiding us through the reefs. He found nudibranchs, eels, and some absolutely gigantic sea turtles, and made the dive both exciting and relaxed. From start to finish, the entire experience was fantastic. If you are looking for scuba diving in Oahu, snorkeling tours, discover scuba experiences, or reef dives with a professional and friendly crew, Dive Oahu is the place to go. I cannot wait for my next dive trip with Dive Oahu. Highly recommend

It was the best decision we could have made. General practice physicians are not going to help you when you tell them a patient is dehydrated or lacking nutrition because they've lost their appetite due to stomach illness. They will just say eat and drink more, not helpful for someone w/nausea. I watched my mother suffer for months and no one would intervene with a solution. We found our own solution at Ocean Therapy. They were easy to schedule and came to our home, really helpful if you have mobility issues. Our nurse was Renee, she was amazing. Knowledgeable, compassionate, and so very competent. We are scheduling another session, and will continue to turn to Ocean Therapy for our IV care.

Spoke to the operator and booked the dive weeks in advanced. I planned my trip around this activity…read moreand then less than 12 hours before the activity, they called me to cancel. On top of that, they did not refund my payment. If you don't want your vacation to be ruined, book with someone else. Now, thy are arguing that they will not process a refund because the cancellation was the night before. I completed all the forms they required and had plenty of time to review them. However, they decided to wait until the night before to review it and cancel the dive. Because they took until the night before to do so, now they conveniently say the cancellation was before 24 hours of the reservation. Why did they not review this before? I have more than 50 dives logged in different countries. I know what the physical requirements are to have a safe dive (my own safety always comes first). They cancelled because I had a minor surgery (they didn't even asked what kind) 8 months ago. The operator called at 7pm the night before with this concern and offered that his wife (who happens to be a doctor), could clear his concerns. I asked about the cost and he quoted $200-250 for the "consultation". They were just clearly looking for an excuse to cancel at the last minute and keep the payment. STAY AWAY FROM DISHONEST VENDORS!!

I woke up early TWICE and showed up at the boat as scheduled, only to find no crew, no operation, and no explanation or communication when calling and texting. I have great screenshots to document this, it would be quite laughable if they didn't steal my money! They messaged me once with vague, incomplete information that didn't clarify anything--then completely stopped responding. I called, emailed, and texted multiple times, but was ignored every step of the way- just an automated message which begins "Aloha!" This isn't just bad customer service--it borders on a scam. They take your money and disappear. If they respond to this review, it will be ironic to only respond to customers when their reputation is at risk--because apparently, the only thing they value more than your money is their online reputation. Avoid Dive Center Hawaii at all costs. They will exploit people by taking their money and disappear. That's how theft works, I suppose. To profit through deceit is to build on sand; collapse is not a question of if, but when.

Wonderful Experience…read more 5/5 experience- did 10 dives with Ed. Ed certified our son years ago doing the ocean dives for junior open water (did the coursework and pool work in California), then later this trip July-August 2026 got certification for advanced open water and enriched air diver. Ed was very attentive and also we like going with Oahu Travel divers as they have a smaller boat and it is not like cow-herd diving which some other operators are. Also he dives with nitrox and that is included. Dives go out of Kewalo basin. We dove Sea Tiger a few times, end pipe, Blocks, Yo-257, Pinnacles and Tug Boat. The highlight was that we saw a whaleshark which was magical/ and haven't seen one before. Ed kept a close eye on my son and was safe, was a good instructor, my son (age 15 enjoyed his instruction and dives). Recommend him / Oahu Travel Divers if you are looking to do diving on South Shore (Kewalo basin) also he said he will be having access to Hawaii Kai boat as well if that interests anyone. Since we stay at Ko Olina, that is farther out so we opted for Kewalo Basin. Also we were allowed to dive our profile, for me was a 58 minute dive for one/ all the other divers were up on the boat I believe in our group except for Ed and I. He checks all the tanks before bringing to the boat to ensure we have full fills and also we checked the nitrox content. We brought our own gear so just needed tanks and weights. On the boat we never felt rushed to put on our gear and also we were not rushed out of the water, we ended the dives when we were appropriately low on air (?700 psi)/ doing 3 minute safety stop.

Ed is very friendly and relaxed and equally as accommodating of very experienced divers and those who hadn't been diving in years and needed some refreshing. I really like that Ed equips all divers with a high quality dive computer and uses EAN32 (Nitrox) on all his dives, giving a quick Nitrox briefing for those who are not Nitrox certified. The rest of the rental gear was good quality and Ed did a very good job leading the dive, checking in with all the divers regularly, spotting sea life, etc. Next time I'm in Honolulu I will definitely dive with Ed again.
