Even if you have never snorkeled Snuba diving is available to you. Snuba is easily accessible to couples, families, children eight years and older, and seniors. It is a great way for a certified diver to introduce non-certified partners to the underwater breathing experience. Snuba divers breathe underwater by means of a 20-foot air line, which is connected to a standard scuba tank. The tank is mounted on a raft on the surface that follows your every movement. The airline allows you to tour underwater near the bottom, at mid-water or on the surface depending on your level of comfort. There is no heavy diving gear.
Every Snuba tour is guided by a diving professional. Your guide will familiarize you with the Snuba equipment you will be using and briefly describe what you can expect in the water. You will start in shallow water and take whatever time necessary to get comfortable breathing underwater. Once comfortable, you are then taken on a guided underwater tour. During the dive you are never more than 20 feet from the security of the raft floating on the surface. You will get the feeling that you are swimming in an aquarium surrounded by tropical fish. The Hawaiian reefs we Snuba dive in have abundant marine life, many of which are found only in the Hawaiian Islands. Dive into the underwater world and learn more about Hawaiian Marine Life.
We begin and end our dive from the sandy shores of Lawai beach. An outer reef protect our bay where many colorful fish and diverse marine life make their home. Your tour guide will point out sea life, which camouflages themselves in the rocks and corals and often go unnoticed. You will get a close-up view of the variety of fish when you feed them the food provided during your dive. Shower and bathroom facilities are available on location.
