Comments I wanted to do some shore dives on the north coast of Oahu, and Lisa of Oahu Scuba Divers recomended Drew. I drove out to meet him in the parking lot at Shark Cove, Haleiwa. His directions to find the parking were easy to follow. I had the gear, and Drew provided the tank and weights. Besides divemastering, Drew shoots a video of your dive which you can purchase from him later if you wish. I did two dives with him.

There are a number of swim throughs at Shark Cove, and Drew took myself and another diver on quite a wonderful tour of the right hand side of the cove, pointing out numerous turtles, nudibranchs, octopus, conger eels, and other assorted critters.

The second dive we did on the left hand side, and went on another swim through where we saw the largest fish I'd seen on Oahu - trevally?? - and some other cool critters. I emerged from this dive with a huge grin that just wouldn't quit.
