Dear Linda and Ken,
Just wanted to say "thanks" for the great dives on Kauai and Niihau. I
got some good photos of the monk seals and turtles. They were so beautiful -
especially the whiskered monk seals! This photo of the boxfish is for Debbie -
it's not a good photo, but will maybe remind her of the joy of finding this
boxfish! Come see me in Okinawa!
Happy Diving! - M. K.
Based
on all the Undercurrent comments I expected a top notch organization and neither
my husband nor I was disappointed in the least. Bubbles Below is a first class
organization! - Pamela and
Powell Arms (divepam@home.com), Narberth, PA
It
turned out that between reservations and diving, schedules got changed and she
wasn't supposed to be out that day. That morning, Linda looked at the booking,
did a double take, and showed up anyway to be my personal guide! -Betsy

Below is best dive operator I have ever been with. Incredible knowledge and they
really enjoy what they are doing. Very safety and environmentally conscious, but
they aren't there to micro manage you. -John Barrett (jbarret@pop3.utoledo.edu)
The
staff (Linda in particular) was very nice; we had both of our boys with us (11
and 14). There was no kid prejudice that you have a tendency to run into these
days. Linda was very supportive of my snorkeling sons and gave them help, extra
gear information, and encouragement. -Cheri, Olympia, WA

Below worked hard to find a good dive site on a day with less than ideal
conditions -- kudos to Linda and Gary. Linda's briefings very detailed. Because
of south swells, vis less than usual too. Lots of turtles on both sites. Also
liked the small group; not a cattle boat operation! - Debie Finch, Kissimmee,
FL
5-star
operation. Bubbles Below is an excellent dive operation. Divemasters Linda and
Debbie are experts on all facets of local marine biology and ecology. Thorough
pre-dive briefing and guided dives allow visiting divers to see much more marine
life than most operations. Special attention is given to endemic Hawaiian
species. - George Glasscock, Wausau, WI
Booked
dives with Bubbles Below after reading the ratings in the Chapbook. I could not
have been more pleased. Linda, Debbie, Tara, Gary and Peter are the best.
Upbeat, accommodating, friendly, and concerned with every diver's well being. -Pete
Hammer (Pandgham@aol.com)
Follow
divemaster or do your own thing. Respectful of experience. When my fiancé
finished his open water certification, we did a sunset then a night dive, Linda
Bail. Excellent! - Amy Smith, Alexandria, VA
"Since
the best dives on Kauai are offshore, we suggest that you book with an operator
for a two-tank dive off a dive boat for the most fulfilling experience. Bubbles
Below Scuba Charters, 6251 Hauaala Rd. Kapaa HI (808/822-3483) offers two-tank
dives..." - Frommer's Frugal Traveler's Guides of Hawaii
"...the
best dive charter on Kauai (and quite possibly the entire state) is Bubbles
Below Inc. Scuba Charters. Bubbles Below is owned and operated by Ken and Linda
Bail, two of the most knowledgeable and experienced scuba professional in
Hawaii's dive industry. They do NOT have a dive shop." - Kimo Morris
Aloha, Bubbles Below!!!! Just want to say THANKS to everybody there for having a GREAT program with Anthony for people like us who have never dived before but wanted to try it!! We were in Kauai a couple weeks ago, and Anthony and helper Julia took me and my family of four out for our first ever dives off Kalua Landing! We had a really great time; both instructors were very patient and courteous. My daughter and I went out for a very successful second dive, which lasted a good 45 minutes.
Anthony is a GREAT instructor, GIVE HIM A RAISE!! Thanks again, Anthony and Julia! - Pat, Leslie, Christine and James Breen - Houston, TX

Here's an excerpt from a note I sent to a friend in CA yesterday...
"Robert and I had a great dive today. Not just good dive but a great one. One of the best I've had on Kauai. A two dive boat trip. We were lucky on several counts. On the one hand we really scored in the divemaster/skipper department. We were fortunate to have Linda as our divemaster and her employee Gary as boat captain. Linda is the consummate naturalist and pretty good in the all-around hostess and humorist business as well. She's a large part of why I come back to "Bubbles Below" year after year. I just need about one dive like today's to feel fulfilled for a year or better!
We saw dolphins, communed with GIANT green sea turtles, sharks, lobsters, critters and corals and visions literally too abundant to catalog."
Dear Linda--
Sharon and I loved diving with you and Byron. Your enthusiasm and knowledge of your craft as well as your educational briefings make diving with Bubbles Below a terrific experience.
We will be back on Kauai Feb. 2-16. We'll make reservations with you later. It's still cold in Michigan! Have a great season. - Tera O'Meara and Sharon Bradt
