Namaka, best dive boat on the Big Island

Kohala Divers new 46 foot dive boat, Namaka, is roomy, comfortable, and not over crowded like most dive operators. Well worth the drive to Kawaihae from Kona. The Kohala coast offers outstanding diving.

Excelent open water dive course with really cool trainer!

Different to other dive centers on the Big Island of Hawaii, Kohala Divers didn´t charge any extra fee for being alone in the course, so I could enjoy a very good education/training with a private trainer who was focused just on me! Thanks Jason for...More

Great crew, great boat!!

Both Steven and Bill were great captains, crew and dive masters were knowledgeable. Boat was SPOTLESS! Nicely configured where everything on a dive boat should be. Puako is still my favorite, Black rock point is pretty darn good though!
