Dan was fantastic from start to finish, making everyone feel comfortable, safe, and welcome. One thing we especially appreciated was the small group size. It created a much more personal experience, allowed for individual attention, and made all of us feel relaxed. Dan did a great job balancing safety and fun, and he was wonderful with our teenagers. The diving was great (saw eels, turtles, rays, lots of fish) and the entire operation was professional, organized, and easy to work with start to finish.

    This was one of the most disappointing dive experiences I've ever had…read more We are relatively new divers and booked this trip looking for a fun, safe, and well-guided experience. What we got instead was poor dive management and a complete lack of professionalism. During the dive, I ran out of air, which is a serious and dangerous situation in scuba diving. The response from the guide was dismissive and poorly handled, which only made the situation worse. The most frustrating part of the entire experience was dealing with Gabe, the owner. He had absolutely no patience and was openly unprofessional, not just with us but in the way he interacted with others as well. There was no concern for how unsafe the situation was, no accountability, and no attempt to make things right. For an activity where safety, trust, and professionalism are critical, this operation fell short on every level. We paid nearly $700 and walked away feeling stressed, unsafe, and completely disappointed. I would strongly caution newer or less experienced divers before booking here. This is not the kind of environment where you feel supported or safe.

    I am just coming off my discover dive with Captain Derick and Toby as our guide and have nothing…read morebut deep gratitude for my experience. I hardly write reviews but their considerate and meticulous service made for an unforgettable experience. Many companies offer discover scuba lessons in Oahu so I called a few to understand the itinerary before making a decision. I spoke with Toby, he welcomed all questions and gave an honest glimpse of what the experience would be. He was also courteous enough to let me know that they might reschedule our reservation in case they don't have enough people to meet a minimum for the boat. This did happen but the company let me know this promptly well in advance and even followed up to remind me about completing e-learnings etc. Fast forward to the day of the scuba and my mother & I met with Toby and the captain on Diamond T II, their boat along ala moana. The captain did a quick lay down of the safety instructions and Toby walked us through the nuts and bolts of diving - key skills, sign language, etc. The crew split us into parties of two each. The sea was a little choppy and I was feeling a little sea sick so I asked the cap if I go jump in the water till the first pair finished their training and dive and he even gave me snorkeling gear!! This was a great way to kill time and also get a preview of the dive ahead. The cap also encouraged my mother to join me and despite her fear of water, she felt at ease in doing so. This half an hour was unexpectedly enjoyable as we were able to interact with some marine life and my mother felt more comfortable being in water. We then got into our gear, which was labeled, super clean and hygienic, and proceeded to do our training session with Toby in the water. This was the highlight of our experience as jumping in a water can be pretty daunting with heavy gear, especially if you run into tricky problems like water in the mask or your regulator. Despite my mother running into these frequently, Toby was incredibly patient and relentlessly made an effort to do her skill training without rushing her. Unfortunately, she was feeling pretty sea sick and also tired by her time in the water so she decided to pause but Toby and I carried on into the water. We spent a serious amount of time close to the ocean bed, Toby was alert yet let me free roam in the water so I gained some confidence too. I was surprised by how clear the water was and we saw plenty of fish, it was magical. On returning, I found out that my mother got sick on the boat so the cap helped her with a pair of goggles, some jelly, and light humor to alleviate her motion sickness. The crew was highly aware of most passengers feeling sick so they expedited our return to the waterfront. I fail to see how this experience could've been more enjoyable and how this crew could've been more considerate to first time divers. Thank you so much for this!!

    We had such a great time with Captain Derick and Zoey as our guide scuba diving. They were…read moreextremely respectful to the environment and gave us detailed instructions on hand signals prior to our underwater adventure. They were super excited (as was I) to embark on our dive and we more than happy to teach us about the animals that we saw. We visited the sea tiger wreck which is a spectacular dive which I highly recommend any AOW to explore! It's certainly my favorite dive on Oahu. Afterwards, I asked Captain Derick if he had any recommendations on new fins to purchase and he gave me many good recs, asking about my style of kicking and what I want underwater. Very helpful. Overall, I had an excellent experience at a very fair price! I highly recommend diving with Aloha!

    My first scuba diving experience with Trident Adventures was absolutely incredible, and I owe so…read moremuch of that to my fantastic instructor,! As a fellow veteran, there was an immediate sense of camaraderie and understanding that made me feel comfortable from the moment we met. To be honest, I was a bundle of nerves before getting into the water. In fact, I was so scared during the initial safety skills test that it took me two attempts to successfully complete it! however my instructor, was incredibly patient and encouraging. He never made me feel rushed, and his calm demeanor really helped me push past my apprehension. He broke down every step, ensuring I understood everything thoroughly, which was exactly what I needed [1]. The highlight of the dive was undoubtedly seeing a majestic sea turtle gracefully swimming by. It was a truly magical moment that I'll never forget. The entire Trident group was professional, combined with a genuine passion for diving and teaching, made this an unforgettable adventure. If you're looking to try scuba diving, especially if you're a bit nervous like I was, I recommend Trident Adventures. !"
