Both trips are essentially the same although dive sites for each trip may change depending on conditions.  Morning and afternoon charters are 2 tanks at 2 different locations. Both are guided eco-tours catering to marine ecology enthusiasts. We will try to satisfy dive site requests as well as critter requests.

Cost is $105.00 and includes: tanks, weights, dive computer, snacks, drinks, and an underwater guide to Kauai 's aquatic backyard. If you wish to use a dive light, great!

Night Dives on Kauai are awesome! Our twilight/night dives are a four and a half hour trip, meeting at 4:30pm during the summer.  You get one of the brightest lights on the market and we guarantee a critter filled dive.

These dives will allow you to see our backyard biota change from day to night before your very eyes

Computers

N/C

The ORCA Marathon : Computers are supplied at no additional charge. Diving with computers allows modern day divers the added advantage of a longer bottom time. We at Bubbles Below prefer diving with computers since most of our dives are multi-level. The first dive depth range often is between 45ft-80ft, with an average of around 60ft. The second dive typically ranges between 30ft-65ft, with an average depth of around 40ft. Usually divers can stay down until 600psi or until the desire to be up on the boat is greater than the desire to be on the bottom.
