Q. Do I have to be
an athlete?
A. Not at all, just need
to
be medically fit. No asthma, heart problems, diabetes etc.
Q. Where do we dive
from?
A. We dive from many
different
locations off the shoreline. We will only go where we see
the
best/safest conditions to dive in. We always will favor the dives with
the most
marine
life activity, Turtles etc.
Q. Can I dive
with
my friend that is getting certified if I am already certified?
A. Yes. But we do ask
that
you stay at a distance so the diver being trained is not
side-tracked
in any way. We believe that complete attention to the learning
process
is
paramount!
Q. How
old must
I be to get certified?
A. Minimum age to become
certified
is 10 yr. of age. That is also up to the parents and instructors
discretion.
Q. How deep will we
go?
A. Most of the diving on
Maui
is around the 30' range. Introductory divers will never go deeper
than
40'
usually 32' max. certified divers can get to the 60' range on select
sites.
Q. Are there sharks?
A. Not likely. The
occurrence of sharks is very very RARE. In the event you were lucky
enough
to see one
it would most likely only be a harmless White tip reef shark. They are
VERY
shy
and you will probably only see their tail as
the are leaving.
Q. How long are we
underwater?
A. Average dives for
Introductory
divers is 30-45 mins. Certified divers generally do better on
their air
and
can get about and hour if they do well with air consumption.
Q. Is it dangerous?
A. Statistics show that
scuba
diving is less dangerous than bowling. Yes you read this correct.
There
are
more injuries on the bowling lanes than there is scuba diving.
Q. What if I want to
come
up?
A. For Introductory
divers
No Problem. We will allow you to come up at any time. The only
thing is
that
for safety reasons you must let you instructor know so that he/she may
assist
you during you ascent.
Q. What is the
temperature
of the water?
A. In the summer
the temperature is around 80 degrees Fahrenheit. During the winter
months
it
will get as low as 74 degrees Fahrenheit.
Q. What thickness of
wet
suit should I bring?
A. The use of 3 mm
shorties
is common practice here. If you have your own you can expect to be
pretty
comfy in a 3 mm short or long. For you cold blooded people. We
recommend
3 mm -
5 mm in the winter.
Q. What will I see?
A. Hmmmm? All kinds of
good
stuff. Hawaii has the largest worldwide population of endemic fish
species.
Endemic means only found in that particular region. 30% of the fish
here
are ONLY found
here. We have lots of the endangered Hawaiian Green
sea
turtles.
We can almost guarantee them
on most dives. We have spotted Eagle Rays,
Manta
Rays, Rare but they're out there White Tip Reef
shark, Fog fish,
Spanish dancers,
lot's of different Coral. There is just too much to list here and oh
yeah
during the winter months Nov-May you can dive to the songs of the
Humpback
Whales.
Listening to the whales sing during your dive is a
memory not
many
divers worldwide get to take
home with them truly spectacular. On the
surface
watch them dance above the water line,
breaching, slapping their tails
and
flippers. Truly our favorite time of year.
