Small-Group Deep Dive in Oahu with Shipwreck and Reef (opens in a new tab)

Our daily Wreck Dives are ideal for more experienced divers, as we dive deeper wrecks and reefs in the early morning. Typically, we dive one deep shipwreck (maximum depth around 100 feet/30 meters) and then visit one of our beautiful coral reefs for our second dive (40-60 feet/12-18 meters). Depending on conditions and currents, as well as what your group wants to dive, sometimes we are able to do a double wreck dive. If the conditions are ideal, we can dive three different wrecks in one two-dive trip!
