Two Tank Shipwreck and Lava Tube Dives

2 Tank Shipwreck and Reef Dives - Waikiki

Electric Beach Shallow Reef Dive

Electric Beach Shallow Reef Dive is a shore dive run by Banzai Divers Hawaii, meeting at Kahe Point Beach Park on Oahu's southwest coastline. Divers enter from a sandy beach and explore shallow depths, making this a reasonable choice for a wide range of experience levels. Basic swimming ability is required. The site sits across the street from an electric plant, and a large outflow pipe releases warm water into the ocean to cool the plant's systems. That warm current draws schools of native fish and green sea turtles, which gather around the pipe. Dolphins, monk seals, and rays also pass through the area. A sunken Buddha statue rests on the bottom and makes for a memorable photo stop. No food or drinks are provided, so bringing water and a snack is a good idea. The meeting point is Kahe Point Beach Park, which sits outside the busy city of Honolulu on the southwest coastline. Divers of varying backgrounds tend to find this site accessible given the sandy entry and the relatively shallow water.

2 Tank Shallow Reef Boat Dives - Waikiki

This boat dive charter from Banzai Divers Hawaii takes certified divers out to shallow reef sites off the south side of Oahu, departing from the Honolulu/Waikiki meeting point. Turtle Canyon is a shallow reef known for green sea turtles gathering at a cleaning station, where tangs, wrasses, and other fish tend to their shells. Touching the turtles is prohibited by law. Nautilus Reef features Hawaiian hard corals along an elongated reef structure, with whitetip sharks commonly resting under lava rock ledges alongside moray eels, leaf scorpionfish, and octopus. Horseshoe Reef and Kewalo Pipe offer eels, pincushion starfish, antler coral, and a drainage pipe blanketed in coral, with spotted eagle rays sometimes visible in the distance. The tour is rated moderate in physical intensity and suits certified divers of varying experience. No meals or drinks are provided, and gratuity and transport are not included.

Electric Beach Snorkel Adventure

Electric Beach Snorkel Adventure takes place at Kahe Point Beach Park on Oahu, where participants meet the guide directly at the site. Before entering the water, the guide covers basic snorkeling techniques and explains the area along with the marine life that may be encountered. From there, the guide leads the group through the reef, pointing out Hawaiian marine life along the way. A few things to know before booking: the activity is weather dependent, so conditions on the day can affect whether it runs. The tour is offered in English. Kahe Point Beach Park is the meeting location, so plan travel there in advance. Arriving ready to get in the water helps the session start smoothly for everyone in the group.

Beginner/Refresher Dive - Electric Beach

Electric Beach sits along Oahu's coast where a power plant flow pipe releases warm water onto the reef, drawing fish and sea turtles to the area. This dive is designed for first-timers and uncertified divers, as well as anyone who has not been in the water for a while and wants to get back into scuba diving. An instructor then walks participants through each piece of gear, explaining what it does and how to use it. The first time in the water is spent at the surface practicing breathing, equalization, and other foundational skills. Once those are solid, a PADI-certified instructor leads a guided dive along the reef. Basic swimming ability is required, and the activity is rated easy in difficulty with moderate physical intensity. The tour is weather dependent, and those who are pregnant are not able to participate.
