I live in Los Angeles... but flying to Hawaii is really easy for me. I fly standby so I really won’t know FOR SURE when I’ll arrive until the day I leave. All I need to do is arrive, rent the equipment, and hit the water.
You looking at shore dives or going on a dive boat? I’m up for either one or both! I’m thinking of flying to Oahu next weekend for a wreck/reef dive they have there at a great price - 2 dives for $85 and $25 full gear rental. Hoping to find someone else in Oahu who may want to go.
