You decided to go big this summer and get ready for the scuba diving journey of a lifetime! But how do you start planning a vacation to Hawaii? If you have always dreamed about scuba diving then let us set up your Maui shore dives.

Maui Shore Diving Tips

The two ways to scuba dive in Maui include boat diving and shore diving. Shore diving means you enter the ocean from the beach. Lahaina has a unique coastline because you do not need a boat to access the best diving locations. You can walk to many shore diving sites all over Maui, but our dive service chooses to explore the areas of Lahaina and Kaanapali.

Maui scuba diving can forever change your life because you can see turtles and White Tip Reef sharks in Lahaina. Our dive shop offers a photography and video package for each of your dives so you can reminisce about your Maui scuba adventures for years to come.

Go Slow

Take your time and please ask questions if you are unsure about any aspect of your scuba diving experience. Don’t rush entering the ocean, take it slow underwater, and follow your expert instructor.

Check Your Scuba Gear Yourself

The entry to the dive site can be more than one hundred feet away. You might have to walk a distance and then swim on the surface to reach certain descent points. If you need to use your snorkel, make sure it is in top condition and fits with your mask. Also, ensure that your BCD does not self-inflate and that your regulator breathes easily. Test your scuba gear before entering the ocean. You should wear a comfortable wetsuit, mask, and fins!

Shore diving in Lahaina is an excellent experience, and Banyan Tree Divers Maui is here to provide knowledge and support. All you’ll have left is to enjoy the magic of Hawaii!
