Scuba Diving Policies
Cancellation Policy
Our Maui dive shop has a 48-hour cancellation policy. If you cancel before this timeframe, you will receive a full refund. However, cancellations made less than 48 hours before the tour are not eligible for a refund.
PADI Course Refunds
You pay for your PADI course in full before your start date. Once you start your scuba course, we cannot issue refunds if you do not complete the course requirements. However, in the event of illness or injury, don’t hesitate to contact us for options to delay or possibly reschedule your dive reservation. Your instructor can provide a PADI referral form if you are unable to complete your course. A PADI referral is valid for one year.
Price Guarantee
We reserve the right to change our prices at any time. However, once you pay in full, we guarantee the price quoted.
Swimming Requirements
You should feel comfortable and confident swimming in the ocean before you sign up for the Beginner Scuba Dive.
Swimming proficiency assessments are compulsory for anyone beginning a course, such as PADI Scuba Diver, PADI Open Water Diver, or Open Water Referral Dives. PADI course participants must complete a 10-minute ocean float, along with a 200-meter swim or a 300-meter snorkel. But don’t worry; your swim and snorkel tests have no time limitations.
Proof of Certification
Beginners do not need a scuba certification to go diving.
All certified divers are required to provide us with a diving certification. Your scuba instructor can review your certification card and logbook before you explore Maui’s dive sites. If you have misplaced anything, please get in touch with us in advance so we can assist you.

The famous beaches of Lahaina, Kaanapali, and Kapalua offer numerous opportunities to explore Maui’s underwater world. Your instructor decides on each dive site according to your skill level and the forecasted Pacific Ocean conditions. As a result, we cannot confirm the dive site you visit for any given day until the time of your scuba dive.
Thank you for taking the time to read our scuba diving policies. We look forward to connecting you with an expert instructor and taking you scuba diving in Maui!
