Maui Underwater Resources
The following, is a list of resources related to diving and photography, especially on Maui. If you have anything to add to this list. Please email your ideas and they will be considered. I will only list links that are related to these subjects and that I personally know to be to companies that meet high standards of competence, service, and environmental awareness.
For dive instruction and certification when you come to Maui, do yourself a favor and make Maui Dreams Dive Company in Kihei your local dive shop. Maui Dreams is a full service shop that makes everyone feel like a local. Prices are reasonable and their instructors are some of the best Maui has to offer. They are one of the few dive operations that avoid the "certification mill" concept of dive instruction and they are environmentally conscious.
If you are interested in doing some boat diving while on Maui, you should contact Pauline at Mike Severns Diving. There are many dive boats here but this one is number one in my book. When I dive with a boat, I want the experience to be more than just another tourist boat going to the same old places. I also want to learn about the local marinelife. I also expect a high priority placed on my safety. With Mike Severns Diving, you get all this plus a fun crew.
For a great dive boat on the Westside, try Extended Horizons. This boat runs out to the neighbor island of Lanai and also visits the Carthaginian.

Many people ask what the best fish identification books for Hawaii are. Our personal favorites are Shore Fishes of Hawaii by John Randall, Hawaii's Fishes by John P. Hoover, and for invertebrates, Hawaii's Sea Creatures by John P. Hoover. (These links to Barnes & Noble are for your convenience. These books are available at any bookseller)
To learn about, and stay up to date on, the environmental facts and news of Hawaii ocean, check out Project S.E.A.-Link. This is a new website and still a work in progress but it is already a wealth of information .
