The dive instructor made sure everyone was comfortable and prepared for the dive. Gear was checked if there was an issue it was resolved quickly. Great dive would highly recommend
tesistravels
The dive crew were extremely knowledgeable and I felt so safe in their hands. Everything was taken care of, they were efficient and prioritized safety. It was also super convenient as the meetup point was at the shop in Waikiki, and they provided transportation to and from the dive point.

Simply amazing. Octopus, dragon moray eel, peacock lobster, squid, Spanish dancer Nudibranch. Breathtakingly beautiful. Our dive master, Josh, was fantastic. He was knowledgeable, safe and fun. I highly recommend this experience. One of my best dives ever.
koreybeth
Wow, such a cool experience to see how the ocean changes at nighttime. We had such great encounters with a shark and octopus, all safely conducted and our divemaster, Jonathan, took great care of us and ensured we all were doing well throughout the whole experience. The boat was a bit crowded, but once you got in the water, the dives were fantastic! We did 8 dives with Waikiki Dive Center in our three days on Oahu, and loved each one of them!

Wonderful night dive! Nick was a great leader, lots of fun, knowledgeable, and ensured a great time for us. Saw a dragon eel for the first, and probably only, time.

Loved my experience with this dive center. The dive masters are all very good at there jobs. I always felt safe and well taken care of. They paid attention to detail. The rental equipment was top notch.

The dive itself was well organized and fun overall, but I'm docking the review because I felt misled by the name of the dive.
I booked directly on the company's website for the "PELAGIC BIOLUMINESCENT 2-TANK NIGHT DIVE – CERTIFIED ONLY, ALL INCLUSIVE". I was under the impression this was going to be a pelagic / blackwater dive where you are tethered to the boat and see bioluminescent creatures with your dive light, but unfortunately this was just a regular night time dive. Had I known that I would have booked with another company that offered actual pelagic dives. They should stop misleading customers and use the first line of the description (Nighttime Scuba Diving in Waikiki) as the product title instead. Granted their night dive product page doesn't mention pelagic other than the title so maybe that's on me.
As for the nighttime dive itself, I don't have any complaints. Waikiki Dive Center is in a great location, walkable from anywhere on Waikiki Beach. All our gear was laid out, ready for us to try on when we arrived. After that, we piled into a van and drove to the marina where the boat was ready to go. The boat was fine for our group of 6 divers, guide, and captain, but could start to feel cramped if there were any more people. There was water, granola bars, and ginger chews for everyone.
Our dive site was the Kewalo Pipe. Our guide (Nick?) made sure everyone was together and safe. We had a mix of first time night divers (myself included) and ones that had done a few already. The coral was feeding and we saw pufferfish, an eel, tiny octopus, crabs, and shrimp. Each dive was about 40-45 minutes. The water at this time of year was practically balmy and you didn't need gloves or booties.

Excellent staff. Abby the dive master was highly competent and safety conscious. The two night dives were fun. The boat was nice. Short boat ride to the dive site.

This was my first ever night dive and it was AMAZING! The crew (Nick, Christian, and Cameron) were so helpful from the moment I walked into the shop! The gear was quality and their knowledge was amazing! The dive briefing was super detailed and made me excited rather than nervous for the dive! During both dives we saw (octopus, squid, crabs, starfish, tons of fish, eels). It was SO WORTH IT. The team made me feel super safe and overall I would totally recommend them!
Special shout-out to Nick for leading my group! You were AWESOME!
