You enter the water and, after a short surface swim, descend on a condemned pier that has transformed into a vibrant reef. Schools of fish surround the wreckage that has accumulated colorful corals and sponges. Turtles swim all around in organized chaos as you search for camouflaged frogfish, making it hard to decide where to look. You follow your instructor as they lead you through the obstacle course of the wreck, swimming under and through the old dock where you spot a pregnant reef shark resting under a section of cement and pause to admire her beauty. As you make your way back to your starting point you focus on the multitude of turtles that gracefully soar through the clear water.

Q: What's the age limit for this dive experience? Can my teenage son join?

A: The minimum age for this dive experience is typically 12, but it's best to check with Dive Maui as they might have specific rules. As long as your son is certified and meets the health criteria, he should be good to go! Make sure he’s comfortable with diving before you book.

Q: Any tips on what to wear for the turtle dive? I want to be comfortable!

A: Definitely wear a swimsuit under your wetsuit, and bring a light rash guard if you get cold easily. Also, don’t forget a pair of water shoes! You’ll want something comfy for when you’re on the boat or walking into the water. Dive Maui usually provides everything else you need.

Q: What happens if the weather is bad? Do they reschedule?

A: Yes, if the weather isn't suitable for the dive, Dive Maui will typically reschedule your trip. They prioritize safety above all! They’ll notify you in advance if anything changes, so keep an eye on your email for updates.

Just did the shark and turtle dive in Maui! Mind-blowing experience!

I recently went on the Small-Group Shark and Turtle Dive with Dive Maui, and wow, what an adventure! The pier was full of life—it felt like swimming in an aquarium. Getting up close to the pregnant reef shark was unreal! The turtles were everywhere, just gliding through the water. Totally worth the price, which, by the way, is free for the experience but don't forget about the tips! Definitely recommend it as a gift for any diver.

Thinking of gifting the shark and turtle dive to my boyfriend!

Okay, I need some advice! My boyfriend is a certified diver and loves marine life. I’m considering gifting him the Small-Group Shark and Turtle Dive in Maui for his birthday. Has anyone done this? Is it as good as it sounds? Any tips for a first-time gift buyer for this type of experience?
