Greetings:
My wife and I will be on The Big Island in April, and I plan on going SCUBA diving for the fist time.
We will be staying on the east coast. I have read that diving is better on the west coast (clearer water). But it is a 4 hour round trip drive- taking valuable vacation time.
My wife has no interest in diving, and so this may be my only time doing it. I am not certified, and won't be. I have purchased the PADI OW Manual and DVD and will study it thoroughly so that I won't have so much to take in that day.
Just wondering, from those who have SCUBA'd in Hawaii, is diving from the west coast so much better than the east to make the 4 hour trip worthwhile?
Thank you,
Jon
