February 6, 2023We went out with Andrew and Evan and loved the deep wreck dive and shallow reef dive! They were very friendly and professional. Both dives were awesome despite gray and... read more windy weather on the surface - great marine life to see, amazing clarity. We got fresh pineapple on our break. I would definitely repeat next time I’m in Oahu!

The other divers and I all knew what we were doing so it was awesome diving with a crew that led us but gave us the freedom to check it... read more out on our own. Overall great dive buddies. Highly recommend using them for your Oahu charters.

January 17, 2023Wonderful experience - What an awesome crew! I took the Open Water Diver and later the Advanced Adventurer training with Hawaiian Diving Adventures. I interacted with Andrew, Caleb, Dana, and Evan. All of... read more them are highly skilled, very knowledgeable, and extremely helpful. The students in these courses had diverse backgrounds, and the instructors tailored their advice to individual needs. Everyone received invaluable hints to improve their diving skills. The open water dives were always fun, filled with encounters with amazing sea creatures (the instructors/dive guides kept us entertained nonstop, both pointing out sea life below the surface and providing us with useful information on the boat).

By far the best dive company in Honolulu.
I've been diving with them for about two years now. What I've seen in the water with them include sharks... read more (with one whale shark), turtles, eels, octopus, and rays.
Fun, goofy and safe adventures.
My last dive a few days ago included two wrecks and the thrill at waving at submarine passengers 80 feet underwater.
Fun, fun and fun!Ken L
January 3, 2023Setup on their website was easy peasy and they were a well organized outfit. Dana was awesome! He was super patient and calm with me being on my first dive... read more and helped me work through my surprisingly irrational fear of breathing underwater. He made sure I was safe and taken care of. We did two dives and saw a pair of white tipped reef sharks and a green sea turtle. Saw a bunch of parrot fish, trigger fish, urchins, a sea cucumber, trumpet fish, angel fish, a rainbow wrasse, a live sea conch and more that I didn't recognize. It was fantastic and I am super grateful that I went with this awesome team.

December 26, 2022I was fortunate to have found HDA as I searched on google for diving companies in Honolulu. They picked up the phone immediately and got me sorted out within minutes.... read more I went diving with them twice: the first time by myself, and the second time with my daughters. We hit the same sites on both days and both times it was a fantastic experience. Starting with the boat and Bailey, the captain, the equipment which was in tip top shape, the attentiveness of all the diving guides, and everybody's all round expertise and knowledgeability. it simply was an A+ experience all around and I can't wait to come back to Honolulu and dive with them again.

Worst diving experience with unprofessional instructor.
I almost died and this is what happened. Before the diving, I called the store and told them I did not dive for a while... read more although I have the certificate and asked if I can go over the diving skills before the scuba diving. And they said yes. So I made an appointment on their website and paid extra for a private guide.
And on the date of diving, I told the private guide( Keller?) I need to review the diving skills and be close to me during diving and treat this diving as an intro diving. But after jumping into the water, the guide just quickly reviewed several hand signals and then we went down...
During the diving, I ascended and went to the surface, but the guide is a little away, and he used some time to notice where I was. He just stayed there and looked at me going up. After I came to the surface, he suddenly rushed to me and pushed me hard from my back. Then my regulator was dropped and he is still pushing me down...Bubbles are around me and I cannot see the regulator and I tried to find my alternative...swallowed water...almost drowned...
After getting back to the boat, the guide told me there was a boat passing by, so he tried to push me down. But this cannot explain their unprofessional behaviors. Several reasons.
1. If one of the member ascends to the surface, the whole group should reunion on the surface, not at the bottom. (I paid extra for this private guide, so the whole group is only two divers)
2. If there was a boat passing by, an experienced guide should notice in advance. This guide just stayed there and waited me going to the surface...did not do anything to alert me about the boat. No danger hand signal, no knock.
3. There was no signal flag on the surface to notice other boats that there were divers.
4. The most dangerous part is pushing a diver down from back and when the regulator was dropped...
I told what happened to my previous dive coach and he said this guide needs to reflect what's wrong and avoid the similar case. This guide needs to review the PADI Rescue Diver course and Divemaster courses. If this guide still doesn't work seriously...
update:
The reply from the store is nonsense. I did not go for the second dive and stay at boat quietly since I was still shocked and scared. My husband did not enjoy the dive and he also think this store is unprofessional. BTW, we have the video from our GoPro and record everything. Everyone who see this store reply will know how rude you are. Instead of apology, you are blaming a client rudely. They don't care about your life. AVOID THIS PLACE!Shuzu Z.

I highly recommend Hawaiian Diving Adventures! I did my first ever dive today with this incredible team. The instruction was great, we got ample time in the water, and Andrew... read more was very patient, knowledgeable, and professional. I felt extremely comfortable and safe the whole time.
After this experience i can't wait to go and get my diving certification.Amy L.
