AAA Diving Spreads its Wings

Recently AAA Diving has looked into ways to expand its potential dive site opportunities. In this quest, we have begun to franchise AAA Diving to Captain Joe who operates a dive boat out of Moanalua Bay.

This exciting opportunity gives us the ability to offer our guests access to some additional awesome divesites: The Cosair, Baby Barge and Portlock Wall to name a few.

We will be providing Captain Joe with new dive gear for rental, as well as the use of dive computers.

Our guests have two options depending on preference and dive experience:


Option 1:
Designed for advanced open water diver or certified divers with 30 or more logged dives, and who would like to do the sites without a guide.
$85
Option 2
Certified divers who prefer to be taken on dive with a divemaster/instructor
$125
 
Prices
Gear Rental
(any combination of bcd, regulator and/or wetsuit)
$15


Please note: we do not have exclusive rights to this boat. Meaning that unlike diving on our boat, the Elysium, there is the potential that other dive operators will be on board your dive charter as well.

Corsair

A very popular dive; a Corsair airplane sitting in 105 feet of water. The only true wreck on the island, meaning it wasn't sunk intentionally. Instead, it ran out of gas during training maneuvers. She lies in the middle of an oasis of sand. Fields and fields of garden eels surround her, and many sea critters have made her fuselage home. Local residents include shrimp, octopus, frogfish, a huge school of blue stripped snappers sometimes so large, they obscure the plane herself. Divers can sit in the cockpit, but look under your seat first for the huge Green Moray. Large pelagic fish have been seen swimming by including eagle rays, whales, and maybe a shark or two....!

Baby Barge

A barge sitting in 80 feet of water. She is tucked beside a beautiful reef making this a very beautiful and varied dive site. A nearby cave houses large sea turtles and further up along the reef another cave housing several white tip reef sharks. Gorgeous Dive.

Portlock Wall

This is a wall dive which because of its potential currents often turns into a magnificent drift dive. The wall drops down to around 60 feet and is full of caverns and caves. Turtles, sharks, rays, octopus, frogfish, scorpionfish, schools of colorful reef fish - butterflies, trumpet fish, parrot fish, wrasse - to begin the list.

*** There are a lot more dive sites in this bay. We have listed a few in the short run, and will post more shortly!
