Comments I've been diving with Lahaina divers for almost 10 yeas & have almost 200 dives with them. The dive locations they service are anywhere from shallow in-close manmade reefs with lots of critters to the very technical live drop|pickup drift dives & everything in between. Over the years, the only time I've had a ... less than satisfactory visit is when prevailing conditions (VOG or swells) have blown out dive sites or made live miserable top side (because I'm sensitive to VOG). The facility & it's dive masters | boat drivers have always been consistently excellent in the service they provide & the facility | boats are excellent. I recommend them highly.
