The Big Island of Hawaii is known for its crystal clear waters, the amazing variety of fish, an abundance of green sea turtles, manta rays, white-tip reef sharks and many varieties of dolphins and whales. Scuba diving from Kona Village could not be easier and our team is PADI 5 Star Certified. Our Dive Valet will assist with all scuba gear and arrange for all cleaning after your dive.
