With over 44 years of expertise, the Waikiki Dive Center team has accomplished over 4 million safe dives and certified 35,000 high-quality divers worldwide. Waikiki Dive Center is dedicated to safety while creating a transformational lifetime experience for every one of our divers.
To avoid confusion, guests must call the shop at 808-922-2121 for any cancellation request during regular business hours between 7 am and 7 pm PST. Any change request left on voicemail or social messaging platforms or via email may not be addressed promptly and, hence, invalid.
Free Cancellations and Free Changes:
Reservations for four or fewer guests were booked directly with Waikiki Dive Center through our shop or our website; if canceled over the phone with at least 48 hours advance notice, guests will not be charged. A full refund will be issued within 24 hours of acknowledgment. All bookings (including but not limited to classes, last-minute walk-ins, private guides, and dive trips) made 48 hours or less in advance cannot be canceled and changed without forfeiting the full fee of the bookings.
Reservations for a private charter or a group of 5 or more guests, regardless of the booking time, if canceled (over the phone) with at least 21 days advance notice, guests will not be charged. We've blocked the entire vessel for the reservations and crew time, which would be considered at least 21 days to recover.
Trip Alterations to Cancellations:
Waikiki Dive Center has an exemplary safety record. We reserve all right to alter trip details or cancel trips if necessary for any reason, including but not limited to adverse weather, unpredictable ocean conditions during the dive, minimum passenger requirements, or other related safety conditions.
To ensure safety, our highly experienced captains track the daily weather closely as cancellations are made on a trip-by-trip basis and may be determined close to the check-in time, even up to the departure time. As we do our best to inform all guests regarding the weather and ocean conditions ahead of time, it may be out of anyone's control that the weather and ocean conditions worsen after the boat departs the dock. Booking may not be refunded, but just like taking a flight, if Waikiki Dive Center must cancel a booking because of safety concerns due to inclement weather conditions, RESCHEDULING will be offered to a non-expiring rain-check voucher to make another trip. Only rain-check voucher is issued if the Captain ends the tour early under suddenly "un-divable" conditions after the boat heads out to the dive location and returns without diving. As much of the planning cost had occurred during the planning and gearing process, should a guest require a credit, only 50% credit may be issued to a non-expiring gift card if/when the Captain ends the tour under the suddenly "un-divable" conditions. Contact us by phone to inquire about a cancellation. We welcome your feedback to help us improve. Please let us know how we can improve your experience by emailing us.
