Ancient lava flows have created a stunning underwater landscape on the neighboring island of Lanai. We love the underwater topography of caverns, lava shoots, swim throughs, and arches and you will too. Your experienced captain will determine the days sites based on conditions but you can expect to dive Lanaiâs famous Cathedrals along with other locations. Our group sizes are small and you will receive special attention from your instructor who will guide you on 2 exceptional dives and answer all of your questions about the marine life.
Our custom built boat, Hoku is the fastest and most comfortable boat that crosses the channel. Dolphins and whales are frequent visitors and we always stop when they say hi.

Great crew, great dive!
Journey17831812538, 13-12-2022
Fantastic experience! Well organized, left right on time, equipment was all prepared to the specification we submitted ahead of time on their very easy to navigate site. We even got to see some whales en route to the site! Great crew and the instructors were all very experienced. The equipment provided was all in great condition as well. Overall Iâd highly recommend this group!
As for the dive itself, the cathedral was phenomenal. Just a stunning site with the entry into the cave absolutely taking your breath. A must see for any diver!
First rate experience

Great crew and Abby was full of enthusiasm and knowledge of the site and the critters. The gear was first rate although it was a little crowded on board. Overall a very good dive experience.
Outstanding Dive at Lanai Cathedrals

Great dive shop that is easy to find and close to the Lahaina boat ramp. Brooke was wonderful as our dive master and did a great job orienting us before and pointing out wildlife during the dive. Lanai Cathedrals was amazing! Will definitely dive with Dive Maui again.
Great start for my diving career!

My friend booked us the 2 tank cathedral dive this past week, and we were definitely looking forward to it. We had a small group that day, which made it that much better. Everyone else had 25+ dives, and I only had two. Being a newbie, I panicked at the first dive. Steven was still on the boat and talked me through it. I managed to catch up with Abbi and the gang, and it was amazing! We saw soo many things! Even Abbi was surprised. For my 3rd and 4th dives, I'm really wondering what can top it? Definitely recommend these guys and I'm grateful for the advice and encouragement from Steve, Abbi, and even the rest of the group!
Fabulous cathedral dive!

Fantastic dive experience and crew. Frannie, Abbi and Steve were very passionate, knowledgeable, attentive and safety focused. Saw dolphins on the way to Lanai. Fish rock and the first cathedral were wonderful sites! (conditions were not good for cathedral 2) Look forward to checking out their advanced dives in the future too!
One of my most memorable dives

Dive Maui at Lahaina is definitely downright worth it!!!
2-tank morning dives were super well organized, with a cheerful crew. The entire team was energetic, helpful and responsible.
We got to see humpback whales on our way to the dive site, and the cathedral dive was one of my ultimate favourite dives of all time!
PS: the âSHOTGUNâ part of the lava formation was an exhilarating experience
Also, make sure to ask for long fins incase they provide smaller versions, the current can be a challenge to tread
Cathedral #1 was beautiful and the whale interaction epic!

Diving through cathedrals was amazing. I felt comfortable with my dive crew and felt safe diving with them. This was dive 11&12 for my family and the deepest dive we have done yet. Lunch was very good and very filling. The captain was personable and very helpful with getting us on and off the boat and tank changes. We had an amazing whale interaction on the way back. The boat stopped and the whales kept getting closer and mom and calf put on quite a show. Our captain was happy to educate us on the whales and what we were witnessing. Mom was helping baby build muscle for the voyage home by performing exercises. Great dives. Great experience.
Must do trip!

The cathedral is a must see! Brook was so full of energy and loved her job it was contagious. The boat was the perfect size and the amount of people 2 groups of 7 was perfect. Predive info was great and the Captain was knowledgable and friendly. Loved the shotgun out of the cathedral, never experienced that before. Can you tell I had a great time?!!
Cathedrals are a must dive
davido306, 24-01-2023
They arrange everything and make sure you are ready to go including weights, lunch, and plenty of fresh water. Well coordinated and organized. The dives were amazing and they made sure you knew where we were going, what we could see and how to exit the cathedral. This was only my eighth dive and they made sure I was comfortable throughout. Not only that, they stopped so we could take in the dozens of spinner dolphins and two humpback calfâs we met before our first dive. Thanks Jeff, Abby, and CJ.
Amazing!

The dives were absolutely wonderful. Brook, our dive master, was very knowledgeable and helpful; she gave an excellent orientation to prepare us for what we might see and made sure to point out all the cool stuff underwater. The cathedral was out of this world and we got to see a shark there! The groups were seven divers per guide which was a great size so there was no crowding and she was able to keep an eye on everyone. Stephen, the captain, did a great job driving the boat and kept us supplied with snacks and water. I would definitely dive with them again next time Iâm in Maui and will be recommending them to all our diver friends :)
All around great experience!!

All around amazing experience!! I'm a newer diver with only 12 dives before this trip. The staff was extremely accommodating and hospitable to me in particular. I was solo, and the next newest diver had more than 50 dives. My dive master was Abbi, she was great - very personable, entertaining, and made sure I was safe and comfortable without being overbearing. The boat captain and the other dive master, Pascal, were remarkable as well - very professional, but equally as entertaining and fun. I can't remember the captains name, but I went on January 12th, 2023 if someone from Dive Maui wants to comment their name.
This particular dive and Dive Maui were highly recommended by a family friend that dives in the Cayman Islands yearly, and it lived up to expectations.
