    FAQs

    If you scuba dive, you must present your certification card (or other proof of certification) at check-in. Snorkelers are welcome.

    To join as a certified diver, you must have dived within the past 5 years (you may be asked to show your log book). If you have not dived in 5 years or more, you must book a refresher or hire a private guide. If you cannot meet the trip’s safety requirements, you must hire a private guide or complete a pool refresher course.

    Children 6 and up can join dive and snorkel charters. All children under 15 must be accompanied by an adult on the boat (and at the pool if applicable). Snorkeling children under 10 must be accompanied by an adult guardian in the water unless you hire a private snorkel guide. All minors under 18 must have a parent or guardian sign liability releases.

    The crew here really sets the standard for what a dive operation should be. Names like Kay, Elias, James, Corey, and Captain Ty come up repeatedly for their deep knowledge of marine life and genuine enthusiasm for sharing the underwater world. Kay especially earns praise for spotting hard-to-find creatures like octopuses and eels, and for explaining behaviors most divers would miss entirely. The guides use underwater tablets to communicate and identify species, which divers found surprisingly helpful for learning what they're actually seeing. What stands out is the personalized, uncrowded feel. Multiple reviewers describe it as diving with family rather than being herded through a commercial operation. The shop accommodates mixed groups well, handling certification dives, experienced divers, and snorkelers on the same trips without anyone feeling neglected. The boat stays comfortable, dive sites include spots other operators don't visit, and safety protocols like face-to-name attendance checks after each dive give everyone confidence. One billing dispute surfaces in the reviews, but it's an isolated incident in an otherwise overwhelmingly positive picture of professionalism and genuine hospitality.

    What a great group all around at Kohala Divers! Thank you all for making my birthday dives some great ones. From those who helped us spend money in the shop to the working crew on the boat, you were all fantastic. Special shout out to Jim, who not only spent one but two of his days off diving with my husband and me. We enjoyed every aspect of our time with you all!
