My husband and I had a great time with Big Island Divers. We came to the Big Island to complete our open water certification and chose Big Island Divers based mostly on the reviews here. We couldn't be happier with our choice! We did the e-learning at home and everything else in Hawaii. The instruction was superb (we had Jeanine,... More

Yesterday evening and night we got to go out to garden-eel cove with the Big Island Divers. Mikey, our dive instructor, did a great job. He was extremely motivated, knew everything we wanted to know about the sea life and was happy all the time! After a beautiful reef-dive we got dry towels, lots of snacks and drinks. All the... More

I don't use that phrase easily as you can always do something twice, but our charter with Big Island Diver's was PERFECT! To have everything work out so well and such amazing service all in one experience is once in a lifetime. We opted to do an afternoon snorkel and then manta ray night snorkel/dive with Big Island Diver's and... More

Big Island divers were incredibly professional, and all of the rental equipment was "like new" Aqualung; high end gear! We had a great experience with Captain Vinny, and Janeen on our first 2 tank dive to the Aquarium and suck'em up, and eel cove. My wife is new to diving, and had never done an ocean dive, Janeen was great... More

My husband and I were on the May 19th Manta Ray snorkel with Adam as our guide. From the easy reservations, check in, crew and fabulous snorkel experience everything was fantastic!!! We were so glad we chose Big Island Divers. The 5 Manta Rays that were at the site on the 19th put on quite a show. Their ballet moves... More

My daughter and I did two 2-tank dives with Big Island Divers this week. The first day we did the afternoon dive followed by the night Manta Ray dive. Another day we did a 2 tank morning dive. Each time we had a different crew and boat (Dive Masters Tara and Flipper) but the experience was consistent in that the... More

I have been diving with Big Island Divers for 3 years and each trip is a wonderful diving experience. Captains on the boat are professional and knowledgeable of the Big Island and the dive masters take good care of everyone, regardless of dive experience.

We took the twilight dive and Manta Ray night dive with Big Island Divers and both were great experiences. The staff are very professional and knowledgable and the boat and equipment are top notch. We saw Manta Rays on both dives and they were incredible on both. To be honest, I wasn't massively keen on sitting still on the sea... More
