Dive Review of
Mike Severns/Marriott Renaissance Wailea Beach in
Hawaii/Maui

Cozumel, Curacao, Florida Keys, Cabo San Lucas

Dive Conditions

Head toward mooring line at 1000psi, head up toward safety stop at 700psi. 
Follow time limits if using their computers.  They let you dive the limits
on your own computer if you supplied your own.  

Seperate rinse tank and camera storage area that was clearly marked off. 
Divemasters went out of their way to point out unique small criters and
also did their best to let photographers get the pics first before others
took a look and stirred up the sand.  

Overall Rating

This was our first trip to Maui and we picked Mike Severns based on other
positive reviews on Undercurrent.org.  They were a great dive operation. 
Very thorough briefings by divemasters who had a minimum of 6 years
experience diving Maui.  Provided warm cinnamon rolls, cookies, trail mix,
goldfish, pretzels, bagels, coffee, hot chocolate, water, soda and juice. 
Quite a spread.  Very focused on safety - well equipped boat with EPIRB,
oxygen and first aid kit.  Took max of 12 divers, split into two groups of
6, each with their own divemaster.  Kept buddies together, but didn't force
singles to buddy up.  Saw lots of great indiginous sea-life, 15+ sea
turtles on one dive, could also hear the humpback whales singing during the
dives.  No preset dive site schedule - crew polled the divers and took
requests.  Molokini crater was a very interesting site - we got there early
and beat the other dive and snorkel boats.  Boat leaves from Kihei boat
launch at 6:30am - convenient to Wailea and Kihei resorts.  Top notch dive
operation - would go out of our way to dive with them in the future.
