Join a certified-diver, 2-tank SCUBA charter aboard the private vessel Diamond T2 to explore reefs off Honolulu. Stay within an ideal 60-foot max depth for Open Water Divers and enjoy long, relaxed dive times.
Certified divers only. Ride-alongs and snorkelers are welcome to join the trip.
Cancel at least 48 hours before check-in for a full refund. Within 48 hours, no-shows, or missed departures are charged the full charter price. Rebook free 48+ hours before; 48–24 hours has a $50 fee; no rebooking within 24 hours. Full refund or reschedule if ASDC cancels.
Check in at 8:30 AM for morning departures and 1:30 PM for afternoon departures for the mandatory boat safety briefing.
If you miss the check-in time, you must reschedule and a $50 rescheduling fee per person applies.
Bring your certification card (digital or physical), a swimsuit (not provided), a towel, sunscreen, and water. You can also bring snacks as needed, and you’re encouraged to bring a reusable water bottle.
The crew here consistently earns praise for creating a welcoming, professional atmosphere on the water. Guides like Zoe, Daniel, Sam, and Swayze get frequent shoutouts for their knowledge and attentiveness, while Captain Justin and Derek keep things running smoothly. Divers regularly spot octopus, sea turtles, eagle rays, eels, and sharks at sites including the popular Sea Tiger wreck. The team handles everything from discovery dives to advanced certifications, and several reviewers mentioned helpful touches like motion sickness support and optional GoPro photo services that let you focus on the experience rather than documenting it. A couple of concerns surfaced in recent feedback. One reviewer noted frustration with feeling ignored during briefings and questioned some wildlife handling practices by a staff member. Another diver found three trips to the same site repetitive and had issues with boat positioning after a dive. These seem like isolated incidents rather than patterns, but they're worth noting. Overall though, the operation has built a strong reputation with repeat customers who come back specifically for this crew whenever they're in Hawaii.
Before I start my Review: I am former military and absolutely consider professionalism a mandatory quality for a diving company. That being said, every instructor I had for my advanced open water and night dive course was professional and experienced. Erin, Sam, Toby, and Matt were absolutely by the book and took all of my questions seriously. When I come back I’m absolutely going to dive with aloha again. If you’re interested in finding a company to dive with, I highly recommend them.
