Pacific Rim Divers, LTD.
Before traveling to Kona, I arranged diving with Pacific Rim Divers after a recommendation from a friend. I called them and found out that they take only small groups of divers and reservations were necessary to avoid being turned away because of a full boat. It is a family run operation and the husband and wife team were on the boat almost every day. Patrice is an incredible dive master. During her briefing, she shows pictures of fish you are likely to see and she does her best to point out every one. She often finds rare fish as well. Her husband, Frank, lead many dives and was a very knowledgeable guide as well. The bonus is that Patrice bakes fresh brownies for the boat every day. This is a great operation and I highly recommend them. Watch out for the chicken! An inside joke you will find out about on the boat the first day.
