Comments Had an enjoyable couple of days diving with Linda and her crew at Bubbles Below. As indicated by previous reports, the divemasters know the fish and critters well and we had a good time diving them. Overall diving in Hawaii isn't on par with the Caribbean or Indo-Pacific locations, but the turtles at House of Honu are second to none. I could do that dive everyday for quite a while before I'd get tired of it. We only had one divemaster for a evening and night dive, and given the level of experience of some of the divers, current, and the number of folks, it was more busy than I'd prefer. All the other dives had two divemasters and went easily.
