Aaron's Dive Shop, Kailua

A hidden world resides off Honolulu's coast. Beneath the water's surface, endangered sea turtles weave between schools of tropical fish, and vibrant coral covers the ocean's original hardwood floors. This is the destination for Aaron's Dive Shop's scuba expeditions. A PADI five-star IDC center, Aaron's trains divers with a PADI curriculum that offers open-water certification programs, has been training new and experienced divers from around the world for over 42 years.

Under the leadership of the owner, Warren, and the course director, Larry, Aaron's Dive Shop's PADI instructors guide their students through a natural progression of coursework. They start with time in the classroom, move on to train within confined swimming pools, and then eventually dive out in the Pacific Ocean. The dive masters can also develop more nuanced techniques such as night diving, wreck diving, and underwater photography. They teach and demonstrate the skills necessary to keep scuba diving safe, while at the same time providing each client the ability to enjoy a lifetime of fun and excitement. For over 40 years, Aaron's team of professionals has been taking experienced divers on the adventure of their lives.And when they're not underwater, the staff members can be found at their dive shop, which stocks gear from brands such as Aqualung and Oceanic.
