The beginning of Waikiki Dive Centre…
Our love for diving started off from the clear blue waters at Hawaii. 30 meters of water visibility, numerous wrecks, swim through of the lava tubes. It came off as a lifestyle to many people. After a day’s work of diving, gears are washed and you while your time into the sunset with the sounds of waves lapping and trees swaying with the direction of the wind. Since then, there’s no turning back on this sea sport.
Opportunity knocks once, as said by many. We were given this chance to have a retail space and we made the best of this opportunity. We wanted to not only introduce scuba diving, but also eventually become one of the well-stocked retail outlets. It was not an easy task, but we worked towards this goal, so that our customers can find most of the items they need under one roof. From a few brands of gears we carry initially, we have expanded eventually to be what we are now.
Fast-forward to today; we now boast a team of dedicated dive instructors and assistants, experienced sales team, and reliable dive travel service. With these essential services brought to you all under one-roof, we are here to be of dedicate service to you.
