Private Charter

Dive into Oahu's underwater world with a private charter Honolulu experience that puts you in complete control of your adventure. Departing from Waikiki Dive Center, these fully customizable excursions last 1.5-3 hours and accommodate up to 30 people, giving you exclusive access to the island's most incredible dive sites.

The real magic happens at legendary wrecks like the Sea Tiger—Oahu's deepest recreational shipwreck with fascinating immigration history—and the San Pedro, a former Korean fishing vessel that caught fire in the 1970s. History buffs will love exploring the YO-257, where World War II and Korean War stories come alive underwater, or the Navy Tug Nashua, an intentionally sunk tugboat creating artificial reef habitat at 65 feet.

For natural beauty, nothing beats Kaohikaipu Rabbit Island, a State of Hawaii Seabird Sanctuary offering three completely different diving experiences. The west side enchants with vibrant coral at 25 feet teeming with native fish. Head north for an adrenaline-pumping drift dive through powerful currents and dramatic rocky outcroppings. The east side delivers the most spectacular scenery—a breathtaking ledge and steep drop-off plunging to 60 feet, featuring massive rock cut-ins, hidden valleys, and mysterious caverns with exceptional visibility.

Other must-see spots include Ewa Pinnacles, where ancient lava formations showcase vibrant Hawaiian corals at 75-90 feet depths, plus Horseshoe Reef with its large barracuda schools and massive moray eels. At Kewalo Pipe, explore a 600-meter coral-encrusted discharge pipe home to octopuses and impressive morays.

Your experienced crew handles everything, departing from either Kewalo Basin Harbor or Maunalua Bay with transportation included. Keep your eyes peeled for endangered Hawaiian monk seals and humpback whales. This private charter Honolulu adventure starts from $749 and lets you customize every aspect of your underwater exploration.
