Can’t wait to swim with sharks again - Had a blast swimming with the sharks! There were tons of them out there and even though I went into the experience pretty nervous and fully expecting to chicken out the second I got into the water, once I got in with the guides I felt incredibly safe. The sharks were so gentle and minded their own business. Instructions on the boat were given at lightning speed so everyone got scolded a little bit for doing things wrong even though I think we were all just confused. That being said, the guides and photographer were very kind and obviously were primarily concerned with our safety. If you’re on the fence about whether or not to book, do it! You won’t regret it.

Epic Experience with sharks! - An absolute blast! My husband and I had a fantastic experience with the humans and sharks. We felt completely safe and were super excited to get in the water and see these beauties up close. Our guide Tyler and the crew were impressive and made us feel at ease and excited. This epic adventure exceeded our expectations! I’d go back to O’ahu just to do this again. I wish we had done it on our first day of vacay instead of the last. We definitely would have gone back again! This was the highlight of our trip.

100% will book again. - Fabulous experience. Energetic and very knowledgeable crew who seem to really care about shark conservation efforts. Truly one of the most serene experiences I have ever had floating in the blue abyss with one of nature's most beautiful animals.

Incredible Shark Diving Adventure with the One Ocean Crew - Shark diving with the One Ocean Crew was an unforgettable first time adventure for us on 8/2/25. We booked the private charter at 11am. From the very beginning, the crew ensured both our and the marine life safety. We feel incredibly fortunate that it's Tiger Shark Season in Oahu, Hawaii, and we got the chance to see these majestic animals up close. Throughout the trip, the team shared fascinating insights about the ocean and its inhabitants, turning the experience into both an adventure and a lesson in marine conservation. After the dives, we could even obtain GoPro footage of our encounter, a perfect way to relive those moments. Nature can be unpredictable, so be ready for potentially rough waters and a rocky ride (motion sickness pills didn’t help much that day). If you can hold your breath longer and dive confidently, you might enjoy an even more intense connection with the underwater world but rest assured, it’s absolutely not a requirement to have an amazing time.

My 4th time diving with One Ocean Diving and NOT my last time!!! - I live in Oahu and when friends come to town this is always on the itinerary! The crew loves what they are doing and they teach us about shark conservation. We saw many species of sharks and even tigers came up from the deep. They are beautiful! Watch Netflix Shark Whisperer first. Earlier you go in morning the better chances. After our tour we walked around Haleiwa and went snorkeling at Sharks Cove. Super fun day!! Highly recommend!!

I do not advise anyone to buy a tour from this company
