I know this is way too late, but my favorite thing to do on Oahu is shark cage diving. North Shore Shark Adventures. Super fun, and doesn't take the whole day. Then again, I'm a big shark fan. Make sure you take an underwater camera. And last I checked it was less than $100! |

Sounds cool, but not for me. Is this SCUBA? Cuz my family and I aren't trained in that. And I can't equalize my ears for crap under about 4' of pressure (way too many ear infections and surgeries as a kid). Snorkeling is about as deep as I go, with the really rare dive down 6-8 feet. |

Nope! You just snorkel in a biiiig shark cage that's moored offshore a couple miles. They use the same boats that the crab fishermen use, so the sharks are attracted to the idea of offal being dumped. They don't chum the water at all though. You can actually pay a lot less and stay in the boat and see the sharks JUST FINE. If you DO do this, go for the early morning one. You'll see more sharks for sure. I'm like you when it comes to SCUBA, I can't take the pressure going more than a few feet down. |
