Looking for something a little out of the ordinary? This may be just the dive for you!
Times and Duration
- Check in is at 6:15 in the morning and we return to the harbor between noon and 1:00.
- 6 Hours (approx.)
**Prerequisites:**
Double Backwall trips are for divers with advanced skills and recent dives, preferably in Maui. Divers must have a minimum of 40 lifetime dives to join us for this trip. Participants must be able to descend quickly, be comfortable in strong currents, possess excellent buoyancy control, and be able to maintain a safety stop in blue water (no mooring line). **If you don't have at least 40 dives and recent dives, this isn't the dive for you.**
What to Expect:
**Check in is at 6:15 in the morning and we return to the harbor between noon and 1:00.**
Visibility off the Backwall typically exceeds 100 feet and you never know what may swim by out in the open ocean! We will probably start our dive deep (around 80-100 feet) and slowly work our way shallower to extend our bottom time. Pyramid butterflyfish, blue dragon nudibranches and even frogfish make their homes on the Backwall, so be prepared for anything!
**Do you need rental gear? No problem! We can provide you with a BCD and regulator (and whatever else you may need) for just $30.**
**DIVER MEDICAL FORM REQUIRED:** All certified divers are required to complete a medical history form and some will be required to obtain their physician's release to participate in scuba diving. [Here's a link to the form](https://mauidiamond.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/DiverMedicalForm.pdf) for easy reference and in case it's needed for a doctor visit. ***Divers who are required to obtain a medical release to dive and who show up without one will be welcomed aboard as passengers but will not be able to dive and will not be refunded.*** We'd rather get to take you diving, so please get this done!
The Small Print:
Though we are planning to dive the Backwall twice on this date, Mother Nature is the ultimate boss of what we do. Should we find ourselves in conditions that do not allow us to safely dive the Backwall, we will find another less traveled/more advanced site or two and take it from there. We will not issue refunds if, due to weather conditions, we do not dive at this site.
Booking Notes
#Aloha,
The only thing better than diving the Backwall once is getting to dive it twice!
Here’s what else you need to know about your upcoming trip aboard the MAUI DIAMOND:
**BRING** your certification card, a reusable water bottle, a towel, your reef safe sunscreen, and a jacket for your surface intervals. You MUST be prepared to have fun!
**REMINDER TO ANYONE DIVING:** You need at least an 18 hour surface interval after diving and before flying or traveling to elevation (for example, zip line tours or visiting Haleakala), so please plan accordingly.
**THERE IS A REQUIRED MEDICAL QUESTIONNAIRE IN YOUR WAIVER** Certified divers should view their waivers well ahead of time in case a physician's release is required to participate in scuba diving. Divers who are required to obtain a [medical release](https://mauidiamond.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/DiverMedicalForm.pdf) to dive and who show up without one (or with one that is incomplete) will be welcomed aboard as passengers but will not be able to dive and will not be refunded. We'd rather get to take you diving, so please get this done! **If you are booking for others, it is your responsibility to provide your dive buddies with the waiver link ahead of time.**

Cancellation Policy
**We have a strictly enforced 48 HOUR CANCELLATION/RESCHEDULE POLICY:** There are no refunds for anything changed or cancelled within 48 hours of your check-in time unless we are able to rebook your spaces. Think of these reservations like concert tickets; if you can’t go, you either sell your tickets (in this case, we work to sell them for you) or you forfeit the money you paid for your tickets.
**Medical Release May be Required** Certified divers should view their waivers well ahead of time in case a physician's release is required to participate in scuba diving. Divers who are required to obtain a medical release to dive and who show up without one will be welcomed aboard as passengers but will not be able to dive nor will be refunded for their spot. **The person making the booking is responsible for sharing the waiver with everyone else on the booking.**
We cannot guarantee specific dive sites; all locations are dependent on weather conditions. Therefore, we do not issue refunds if we have to divert to a different site than the one planned for the day.
