About Us

We are Wild Hawaii Ocean Adventures(WHOA) and we are uniquely capable of providing an ocean experience like no other company in Kona. We do this through a combination of our equipment and our talented crew.

Our equipment is the Ocean Warrior–a USMI 11-meter rigid inflatable Navy S.E.A.L. assault vessel sporting twin 500 HP Caterpillar engines and KAMEWA Rolls Royce jet drives. Jet drives mean it is an extremely safe dive platform since there are no propellers to endanger either marine life or swimmers. Dubbed the Lamborghini of the Navy S.E.A.L. assault fleet, the Ocean Warrior was designed to be extremely solid, fast, maneuverable, and safe. The most maneuverable type of boat in the Navy, the Ocean Warrior served its country in Special Boat Team 12 before continuing its service at WHOA, bringing ocean enthusiasts to remote areas and experiences not accessible by other boats.

Equipment alone is not enough to make for a great experience. A knowledgeable and seasoned crew is essential. WHOA boasts a crew with extensive experience on the waters off the Kona coast. As you will see below, our crew includes championship freedivers, professional photographers, experienced pelagic guides, and expert spearfishermen. Through our talents and experience, we work hard to provide our customers with the thrill of a lifetime.
