Expect to enjoy a unique, amazing, fun, and educational adventure swimming in the gorgeous blue water off Hawaii under the safety and guidance of professional marine animal researchers and experts who will share unique and useful information. 

Meet at Haleiwa Harbor by the BLUE  KIOSK with the ONEOCEANDIVING.com sign on top. 

 Be sure to be there by ten minutes prior to your booking time (departure time.) 

**The boats always leave on time so please don't be late, there is a strict no-show=no-refund cancellation policy so that all charters operate in the best weather conditions and on-time for people who need to make it to work or catch a flight so we always run on-time.  Please leave time for parking and just in case of traffic.  There are good cafes and shops if you get to Haleiwa town early. 

You will be welcomed onboard one of our research vessels that will drive over and tie up at the loading area next to the big white fish scale scaffolding ten minutes prior to departure.  If its departure time and you are waiting at the kiosk walk over and ask the boat closest to the blue One Ocean Diving Kiosk where the One Ocean Diving Boat loads. 

    The captain will go over safety information and help fit you for a pair of fins.  On the way out to the dive sites your in-water shark safety guide and marine animal expert will explain everything you want to know about what to do, and what not to do, while you're in the water. The biologist will cover an overview of our research, some information about our traditional Hawaiian culture that ties into the Ocean, as well as the modern science, biology, physiology, social behavior, and how all of that relates to things that you can do to have a healthy and respectful interaction.  The information shared is also helpful in case you encounter large marine animals when you're on your own after the program and we are happy to say the information we share has helped people outside of the program to avoid adverse interactions, so its great information and a great program for anyone, even if you don't think you want to go in the ocean.

Continued on the Experience

Some people sign up just to go on the boat to learn about the marine life and the on-going research, the program is very educational and you can see the animals from the surface so we encourage people to bring friends that might be scared or nervous, most people who say they are "just going out to watch from the surface and learn the information" end up getting in the water after seeing how much fun other people are having.  If you're planning to do the full program like most people you can rest assured that the bologist will be the first person in the water and the last person out.  All of the guides are extensively trained by the most experienced people in the world for working in-water with large Marine Animals. Your in-water guide and researching biologist will immediately get in the water and you can join them to experience first hand how beautiful and amazing the ocean really is. For your comfort there are lines with floats draping along the side of the boat with the ladder, you are welcome to hold on to the lines the entire time although your guide will invite you off to swim and or freedive down however we respect your comfort and swim ability and encourage you to relax and hold on to the lines if you would prefer not to swim around.  You are always welcome to get out and take a break or if you want to try a different mask, snorkel, fins, or simply have a question the Captain will be on board at all times to assist you while your other crew safety you in the water.  On the way back in your guides will share information and research variables specific to your dive as well as conservation information, our efforts, ways you can get involved and they will answer any questions you have while also looking for other marine life such as dolphins, whales, and sea turtles on the drive back in (**. We unfortunately cannot guarantee you will see whales, dolphins, sea turtles, every tip but we do see something every trip etc.)   We believe you will walk away with a new found respect for the ocean and will want to #savetheocean for future generations! Book online now to join us now.  We are ranked as one of the best boat charters in all of Hawaii
