We're staying in Kihei, Maui 6/21 - 6/28. Anybody going diving during that time? Any experienced shore divers looking for couple more people to join them. We have about 100 dives each including Blue Hole in Belize, drift in Cozumel, caverns in Akumal, Oahu and Kauai. So, no limitations. But first time diving in Maui. We always do boat dives, but I think Maui offers lots of nice shore dives and want to give that a shot.
Looking to do some boat diving as well as some shore diving since boat diving is soooo expensive in Maui (2x that of Belize). About 2-3 days of boat diving and 1-2 times of shore diving in the afternoons or on different days. Thinking that the Molikini Backwall and Cathedrals at Lanai are musts. Agree? Do you recommend taking a boat from Kihei to Lanai or driving to Lahaina?
I've checked out the dive op sites, but wasn't clear on if they charge extra (how much?) for tanks/weights/air if you just rent the gear to do a shore dive on your own. We have masks/fins, but will need everything else.
Anybody know how much it costs to hire a DM?
Mahalo.
