2-Tank Local Morning Dive Charter

Cruise along Kona's rugged coastline aboard the Honu One, a custom 46-foot Newton dive vessel, and explore some of the Big Island's most vibrant underwater landscapes. This 5-hour, 2-tank morning charter takes certified divers through colorful coral reefs, underwater lava tunnels, and marine habitats teeming with tropical fish, eels, octopus, and other large ocean life.

Your divemaster guides groups of no more than 6 divers, selecting dive sites based on current conditions for the best visibility and marine encounters. Kona's reefs offer exceptional diving at relatively shallow depths — most of the best marine life sits between 15 and 45 feet — making this charter accessible to divers of all certification levels.
