![]() | Carl Downs on Thank you Lahaina Divers for a great experience. My daughter and I had a blast on both the Molokini and Molokai dives. I am still haunted by the sight of those giant hammerheads. Whoooaaa. Mahalo and see you next time. Carl |
![]() | Kevin Malonson on Thank you for an outstanding dive trip during my recent visit to Maui. I dove Molokini Crater and Mala Wharf with Captain Dan and his crew on July 12, 2011. The crew is top notch and they made me feel comfortable and confident during my dives. I really appreciated the dive briefings. It was great that you all are so knowledgeable about the history, geology, and fauna of the dive sites. Great Job. Shouts out to Captain Dan and his entire crew. Aloha! |
![]() | Ernie Magnotti on Lahaina Divers is well organized, safety conscious, and FUN! The gear they rent is new and top of the line. The boat is set up for diving efficiency. The staff is highly professional and knowledgeable, and all with a sense of humor. My son Zack and I dove with Misty ? kudos to her, we lover her! Can?t wait to get back to Maui, we?re spending more of our next vacation with Lahaina Divers ? looking forward to Molokai and back side of Molokai next time! |
![]() | Scott Younce on I had dove Maui before. It was a beautiful day and the turtles were absolutely wonderful. Jarett Fry was an excellent dive master and his pictures were beautiful. |
![]() | Bob Wiecezak on I had a great time with you guys. There were a lot of divers on the boat but you moved the three groups around so well we didn't even notice they were there. Very well organized. Thanks! |
![]() | David Corby on I am an SSI Dive Con. I have been on a lot of boats and done hundreds of shore dives. I can say that Lahaina Divers is an awesome group of divers. They were extremely professional and all around fun group of people. I had a blast and if I am in Maui again I will certainly be diving with Lahaina Divers. |
![]() | Shawn Martinez on I really enjoyed my time with Lahaina Divers. I don't dive as much as I used to so appreciated a responsive crew who made the excursions simple and easy going. The crew was organized and effective from dive overview to safety, and their hardware was top-notch. I'll definitely be leveraging Lahaina Diver's services again when I go back to Maui. |
![]() | Roy Stevens on This trip was my third in a row diving with LD. As always, the experiences were fantastic. Captains and crew were professional. I can't imagine diving with anyone else on Maui. Thanks again for everything. |
![]() | Mark Schacht on I write as a PADI Divemaster (1994) who recently booked a Molokai drift dive in July 2011. Most respectfully, I suggest your dive boat staff need to pay greater attention to divers surfacing after the 'Fish Rain' dives near Mohuho'okiniki Rock: We were on the surface at least 10 minutes before the boat staff noticed us, and they were roughly 2 football fields away. Don't know whether they're using binoculars, but they should be. Also, safety 'sausages' aren't necessarily effective when wind is up--as it was that day for 2nd dive--I used my collapsible dive flag to signal boat. Mark Schacht PADI DM 82370 Lahaina Divers Reply on Aloha Mark, Thank you for taking the time to let us know your thoughts and suggestions for improving our dives to Molokai. I am sorry you were on the surface approximately 10 minutes. Due to currents and the wind conditions it is common for the groups to separate and end up in different locations for pick ups and this is why we require a safety sausage for every diver on the charter and there are binoculars on the boats as well. The challenges of each diver towing a dive float were problematic and that is why we went to the safety sausages. We are always looking for ways to improve, so if you have any other suggestions, please call me at 1800-998-3483 or email me at greg@lahainadivers.com. Mahalo again for your time, Greg Howeth President, Lahaina Divers Inc. |
![]() | Ed Schumann on Great fun as always. Maui feels like a second home once a year and the crew at Lahaina Divers feels like a second family. I have to give a shout out to Capt. Dan and a couple of this year's dive leaders - Elliot and Chelsea. They not only exhibit a professional competence but their enthusiasm makes me regret that last dive and look forward to next time. If you guys ever find yourselves escaping island fever in SoCal, look me up for a beer and some Bar-B-Q. |
![]() | Bill Schimberg on great..... Friendly, professional, fun and safe....... |
![]() | Steven Smeltzer on Yahoo.....shark week is here |
![]() | Ryan C on Went on 6 amazing dives with Lahaina Divers in May. I have never seen such a professional crew and outfit- safety was their absolute priority, along with respect for the sites and for the divers. Chelsea was a great master for all 6 dives and the pictures are professional quality- I have been having a blast showing them off (they are now my screensaver). All in all, an amazing experience. They were also great to my (uncertified) brother on his first dive ever on the "Discover Intro to Diving" set of 2 dives. I appreciated how comfortable they made him feel and he loved it! I can't imagine ever diving with anyone else, as they have so many different options and vary sites all the time. Thanks for everything! |
![]() | Jim Chrisman on I have Multiple Sclrosis and they are GREAT! They have a handicap Scuba instructor that was there to help me as needed. I have many dives, but my legs sre weaker now and so she pulled me along against the current when it got to be too much. That was day one on Turtle reef. Day two at The Crater they had me with a dive master that was always looking out for me. Even through I hung back his group he was still checking on me to make sure I was ok. I did my open water checkout dives with them in 1999 and I love the new boats. Lots of room and they are still a first class operator like they were back then. I hope to return to Maui in the future and will definitely dive with them. I also highly recommend them as a dive operator if your'e looking for one. Jim |
![]() | Brandon Nydell on Just finished 6 days straight of diving with you guys. It was a blast seeing the sharks and sea turtles and all the cool fish, eals, crabs, lobsters. Also today we got to swim with the dolphins 30-50 feet under. The whole crew was great and helped out with everything. Also Levi was a great instructor who was with me all 6 days and did my 4 certification dives. Can't wait to come back in the future. |
![]() | Debbie Whittaker on Great experience! The staff shared their knowledge and experience. They made the dives to Jodo, the collapsed bridge and Molokini Crater enjoyable. |
![]() | Pete Kalnins on We had the best time! What a Treat! Great People Great Diving Wow! |
![]() | Monica Padineant on Had an incredible time diving with Lahaina divers. The diving was great, the boat and crew was awesome! I would def recommend them to anyone who wants to have a great diving experience! Thank you all for some very cool memories :-) |
![]() | Mike Laban on Thanks for the great trip!. Although the weather didn't cooperate and our trip to Molokai was cancelled, the Lanai Drift was a nice second choice. As always a good crossing, great crew and really fun dives. This was our 6th visit to Maui and my 7th trip with you- and I have never been disappointed. Thanks for the consistently high level of service you provide. And of course, for the post dive cookies! |
![]() | Diane Schwind on Thanks for a wonderful time diving. Our family had a blast. Dave and I had not dove for a long time, and you made it easy, painless and NOT frightening. I have to tell you, though, Dave and I dove Molokini 30 years ago, and it was much more beautiful, colorful, and had thousands more fish. It is a shame to see this beautiful place so changed. (I know that it is not your fault, and you are trying to preserve what is left) The world needs to stop polluting our oceans, and taking them for granted. Thank you, Diane |
![]() | Kristin Hummel-Sauerwein on Can't wait until September...4 trips as a "beginner" but this time I'm coming back to get certified (finally). You guys have been amazing, I would recommend you to anyone (and I have). Getting certified will be the culmination of a lot of work and I'm excited already, and it is may! |
![]() | michael ROSS on Wanted to let you guys know how much i enjoyed your services. I dove ten dives in five days with you, and they were all exceptional.Let chris know he is the best. See you all in august. |
![]() | Tim Crook on Our 5/3 trip to Molokini Crater was awesome. Great diving and our friends who were snorkeling also had a dandy time. |
![]() | Benjamin Chapman on Couldn't be more happy with our "Hawaiian experience like none other". From the professionalism of the store staff in helping make sure we were ready to dive (including rescheduling a day's dive due to a nasty head cold!), to the crew that made sure we were all there with regular roll call, pre-dive briefings and fresh cookies; my wife and I always felt we were in good hands. Mahalo and aloha! |
![]() | DON LEAR on WAS DIVING WITH YOU 4/25 AND 4/26; HAD A GREAT TIME, GUIDES WERE GREAT AND THE SERVICE AND BOAT WAS ALSO; WILL BE BACK!!! |
![]() | Brendan Clarke on Great team on the boat, small amount of divers (7). Great equipment, plenty of briefing and info, safe and interesting dives at shark fin rock and lighthouse. Got use all my air, very impressed would reccomend, used 3 dive companies in Maui, easily the best (Ed Robinson a close second) |
![]() | Greg Painter on What an AMAZING three days of diving with you folks. U was so impressed with your staff at the shop and on the boats. Just a great experience. THANK YOUMC7 |
![]() | Dallas Fraser on The crew and staff were very helpful. The equipment and the boat were of a very high quality. Thanks for helping me achieve certification. |
![]() | ursula heintz coletti on Aloha, I miss Maui and diving with you already. Left April 19th, 2011,6 days ago. Had a great time, of course you made it even better. I hope I will be back soon. Good luck and a great, busy 2011. Best Ursula |
![]() | Cale and Teresa Hodder on Boats were nice, equipment fine, dive sites fine, dives were fine. We had a good time. Overall felt like the staff were just going through the motions (numerous examples). Will try someone else next time we are in Maui. |
![]() | Caren & Vernon Edler on The Molikai dive was the best dive we have ever done... we heard whales signing, saw about 10 hammerheads, 3 white tip reef sharks, a large moray eel, a gorgeous spotted eagle ray, dolphins swam under us & whales were breaching!! Awesome :) Lahaina Divers is professional, fun & worth every penny! |
![]() | Fred Morgan on Jenna did an outstanding job with our group. Great group of instructors all around. Thanks for the great time. |
![]() | Nicole Steinmetz on we had an AMAZING time diving with you guys! thanks for everything! also, any word on what happened to the diver we rescued at the molokini crater march 26th? |
![]() | Petra Kiss on I would like to thank Nick Manwill the amazing dive!!! |
![]() | Roland Rick on Just got back from a 10 day trip to Maui. Had my 10 year old newly certified daughter with me. I was extremely impressed with you guys in terms of attention to detail, safety, and overall high level of professionalism. It can sometimes get hectic on bigger boats due to the amount of people. Things went smoother with you guys then I've seen on boats with only 6 divers. I will recommend you to anyone I know heading to Maui. |
![]() | Brandon & Catherine Behringer on Hi Guys ~ We just wanted to pass along a HUGE thank you to Levi and the rest of the staff. When booking the dive Levi was extremely patient with us as we were unsure of our plans and had to phone in several times. Levi took time with us, answered all of our questions/concerns and appeared not to be frustrated by our lack of planning. Thank you Levi! The second thing we wanted to point out is the fact that on both dives Levi removed debris from the bottom of the ocean floor which we were both very impressed by. Levi demonstrated his sincere concern and passion for what he does and at such a young age we were blown away. Thank you Lahania Divers and especially Levi for making this the best dive in Maui yet! We look forward to many, many more. Brandon & Catherine Behringer |
![]() | jim gant on This was my second year to dive with Lahaina Divers and i was impressed with the improvements. Divemaster quality was much improved and safety was their first concern. I was so pleased with this group of instructors that I took three specialty courses with them and thoroughly enjoyed each of them. The drift on the backside of Molokini Crater was awesome and very well controlled by the staff and boat captains. We had enough freedom to explore yet were kept together as a group the way a drift should be. I cant wait to dive with you guys again next year. Mahalo for the fun and Ill see you soon.Kudos to Chelsea, Stephen. Chris, Capt. Dan and others! |
![]() | JAY LEE on Hi everyone! It's already been almost a year since my last visit! The Undersea Travel 100th anniversary edition finally came out with my article regarding Maui featuring your shop. I've really enjoyed my diving experience with great staff, equipment, and the boat. Thank you! I've attached the entire article and your shop is featured on page 11! Feel free to let me know if you'd like a copy of the original photo. Hope to see you guys soon! safe diving~ Jay. Lee |
![]() | T Hau on I went on the Molikai shark dive. There were only 6 divers which is unusual. We dropped down to 80ft with a bottom of around 140-160 and were about 125 yards from the island. We swam in the blue for 40 minutes with nothing to see. During our surface interval the divemaster ignored us and layed in the sun. Our second dive was exactly the same. Insanity is repeating exactly the same thing and expecting different results. If given a choice I think the group would have chosen a different dive profile. I decided not to do the other 6 boat dives with Lahina divers after such a waste of money and bubbles. Lahaina Divers Reply on Aloha Mr. Hau, Thank you so much for diving with Lahaina Divers. I apologize that you did not have a good time diving with us. I will contact you via email to follow up. Thank you. |
![]() | Lucy & Axel Newman on Thank you Lahaina Divers on our recent pilgrimage to Maui, we had the pleasure of blowing bubbles with Lahaina Divers. Anyone think of diving in Maui I could not recommended Lahaina Divers highly enough .They are the best recreation dive operation we have come across. Once again thank you for the memories they will last a lifetime. We are both now saving for the next visit Cheers Lucy & Axel Newman |
![]() | helen & tony Lazo on We just want to thank everyone at lahaina divers for the great time we had. If you are a first time diver, this is defenetly the place to go. We had an amazing time and it was all thanks to the crew on board running everything. We can't remember the name of our instructor but she was awsome!!!!! We highly recommend this place. |
![]() | Elayne Hunter on I just wanted to say thank you to our Dive Master Chris and that rest of the crew on our dive in February. You have a well run organization and very competent staff. |
![]() | Joe Volding on Wonderful trips to Molokini and Lanai. Chris was great! I will be back next year.! |
![]() | Darin Reid on L.D. handled our group of 43 high school students and 6 adults with humor and ease. Everyone had a great time and we'll definitely be back. Thank you! |
![]() | Nicole Dunham on We have been diving with Lahaina Divers for a number of years now and always find the staff friendly and helpful. We dove Molokini crater and had a wonderful time. The dive masters pointed out many things we would have missed without their expert knowledge. Keep up the great work! See you next year, Mahalo |
![]() | Kathy Boehler on Great experiences with Lahaina Divers from the intro dives thru certification and beyond. Excellent instructors, guides and crew. |
![]() | Kevin Hyde on Great time! 8 dives in 2 days and we saw some great diving. the crew was helpful and provided super service. Highly recommended. |
![]() | Gary Mooers on The crew was great on the boat. The crew in the store were snotty and rude. Lahaina Divers Reply on Aloha Gary, Thank you so much for diving with us. I will contact you to follow up about what happened at the store. Thank you for your comment. Lahaina Divers Owner |
![]() | Steve Lotzer on I really had a great time, and I always believe the people make that happen. Lahaina Divers crew are the professional, safe, friendly and helpful, on the boat and in the store. I would, without hesitation recommend Lahaina Divers to anyone. I'll see you on my next trip to Maui! Great job and thanks! |
![]() | Mary Jara on Loved the pictures and the update on your last e-mail. We hope to be coming there this May and will plan some dives. Wish the whales could wait for us. :} |
