My brother has been diving for years. Always wanted to go with him but I am not certified. Signed up for the intro dive with Mike Lipp. He went through the pool excercises and Mike educated me on the basics. He explained where I would have some initial anxiety and how it was all normal.

I was staying at the Hyatt and went diving with Rob from 5 Star. I hadn't been diving in a couple years, so I did a pool refresher before my 1st dive.

Kevin was an excellent instructor, very enthusiastic, patient, and explained everything very... More

After reading the great In2Scuba reviews, I was under the impression that they were the outfit that operated out of the Sheraton Maui. I was mistaken, it is 5 Star Scuba.
