You don't have to go on a boat to get to some of the best dive sites along the Kona Coast. We can take you on one of our guided shore dives, or you can rent some gear and head out on your own.

If you are doing your own shore dives, stop by the shop for free shore diving maps, or you can check out the Hawaii section of Shorediving.com.

SHORE DIVING TIPS
1) Do a pool refresher or a boat dive before trying your first shore dive. Its best to work out the kinks and your weighting while you have the support of professionals.

2) Ask our staff for recommendations based on the current sea conditions. High surf can make shore entries/exits extremely dangerous. Once at the site, make your own thorough check of the conditions BEFORE suiting up.

3) Wear booties, gloves, and full wetsuits to protect yourself from abrasions. Most of Hawaii's shore dives are over rocky shores, not sandy beaches.

4) During entries & exits, never turn your back on the ocean. If a wave is coming, you want to be prepared for it.

5) Tow a dive flag to warn boat traffic. Its the law.

6) Take a little more weight than you would normally need on a boat dive. As your tank gets lighter, it can be difficult to stay down as you swim shallower back to shore.

7) Have fun and be safe!
