Hawaii can be a great place to learn how to dive. I highly recommend if you are interesting in learning to dive, consider going the referral route.... Do your academic and pool work at home and then do your two days of open water diving out here... it's by far the best of both worlds. I'm happy to do PADI and SDI referral students. Wanna Dive also offers full certifications, where you do everything here. You'll want the PADI Open Water Crew Pack, which has all of the required study materials, and I would recommend you pick that up before coming over so you can study up. One you have covered all of the study materials and get here we can get started. The first 2-3 days can be fairly involved (that's a good part of the reason I highly recommend going the referral route so you are ready for the open water dives right off the bat when you arrive), we'll be covering knowledge reviews and testing for the course and then doing pool work. I used to do a 3 day full course, but have found that it's more than a lot of people can take on and we ended up rescheduling frequently... tough to do when it's busy for us or people have tight schedules. Now I'm planning on 5 shorter days, with the possibility of getting it done in 4. Typically we'll spend an evening covering academics, then a second and maybe a third evening covering pool work and finishing any remaining academics. Once this is done, were ready to hit open water on the boat for 2 days of diving, 2 dives a day. The boat diving days typically run from about 9 am to 3pm. If you are looking for a 3 day course, I'll have to recommend you go elsewhere. I'm trying to do the courses right, and don't want to rush anything. If you are here for quite a while and are OK with a 4-5 day course, where you or your immediate group are the only students, then I think you'll be quite pleased with what we offer.
