Based in Waikiki, Ola ParaDive introduces guests to Hawaii’s underwater paradise through intimate, small-group dives led by patient, PADI-certified pros. From first breaths in calm lagoons to advanced descents along vibrant reefs ...
Jonathan clearly runs an exceptional dive operation in Oahu, and divers keep coming back specifically for him. What stands out immediately is his genuine aloha spirit and how he treats guests like friends rather than customers. He's fluent in multiple languages including Spanish, making international visitors feel right at home. People consistently praise his professionalism and safety standards while noting how relaxed and approachable he makes everything feel. His versatility really shines through. Jonathan handles everything from nervous first-timers to advanced certifications, often taking anxious divers by the hand (literally) to help them enjoy the experience. He's incredibly accommodating with last-minute bookings and schedule changes, even working around unexpected road closures. Beyond the diving itself, guests love that he shares videos of their dives, recommends local restaurants, and genuinely invests in making their entire Hawaii experience memorable. The wreck dives get special mentions as truly unforgettable adventures.
Had a great time diving with Jonathon. Did 5 days with him and accomplished my open water and my advanced scuba diving certification. His one on one training made all the difference for me. I highly recommend him!
