Good selection of tackle and gear. Cool stickers. Guys were friendly and it was kind of fun listening to the auction going on in the back.

Customer service is mediocre. Selection is pretty good, lots of brands/items to choose from. Pricing is not bad.

I bought my second pair of fins from this store this week, picked up the fins from the store today. I used them in the water and they felt really tight. I called them to ask a simple question, but they texted me instead. (Screenshots attached) I felt the guy texting was pretty rude, specially to be talking to a paying customer. Apparently the guy at the store claims I said I don't wear booties which is not true at all and in person he said he always has people try the foot pockets with booties on at the store which he never did with me! As you can see the guy on the text told me to go back to the store to get them replaced. Once at the store the guy said this was on me and that it would not be replaced unless I bought new foot pockets. Definitely never doing business with these guys again.

Great place for your dive necessities although their selection isn't quiet as big as other places on island they still do hold things others don't and recommend checking them out if you haven't. Bought my first dive R fins here and must say its the best fins I ever owned.

The crew at Westside Dive & Tackle have nothing but Aloha. Helped me and my Ohana gear up to help keep us wet during the pandemic shut downs. Knowledgeable staff and good inventory to meet our needs. My youngest nephew is hooked on Tako diving

Rude & Unprofessional. Whoever manages their phone line is not helpful at all! Bad attitude and condescending tone!

Wow. General impression: I don't know if the guy was lazy, put out, or just a snob, or maybe all three. We were the only people in the store, and it was like pulling teeth getting the young guy behind the counter to say anything. Maybe he thought we were tourists, or just having a bad day. I'm a 24 year active duty military sailor that specializes in all things diving. I made it a goal to get into spearfishing when we moved here. I needed an education on spearguns and fins. I started with trying to ask questions about the fins on the wall. One question I asked was what is the sizing like, and the guy was just really put out. Come on, Brah! I'm ready to spend some money! Him being put out made me put out. I didn't even bother asking about spearguns. We were over it, and left. Later in the week, we went to another store in Honolulu, and I ended up getting the help, and really the quality customer service that anyone deserves when walking into a specialty business.Diving is dangerous. Anything in the ocean is dangerous. If you have a business that helps put people out in the water, take some time with any person that walks through those doors to help them make the right choices.

Strongly recommend this place for all levels of diving! Last September, had my first dive in my life with the owner Peter. Had a wonderful experience. Decided to take course through West Side Scuba to obtain the Open Water Diver license. This year, I went back WSSC to finish my dives. Had Max Weedon as my instructor. He was very patient and very kind. I am not a water person. He encouraged me and helped me to overcome my fear. Had one on one on the first 2 dives, one to two on next 2 dives. This really helped me a lot. At the end of the diving session, he asked me to do air another diving session since few points I didn't do well. He said he has to be responsible for me and also want to make sure I can be safe in the water(I was not aware my surrounding which scared him a lot). He is nice but also strict which I need it for my underwater safety. He is a excellent responsible instructor. Next day, I was on the boat with my instructor Max, captain and a crew. Had a private diving trip with them. Can't say enough Thank You to this company. I had wonderful experience with West Side Scuba Center! The staffs are friendly and fun. They provide snack bars, cakes and bottle water all for free. What I like the most is they are friendly but also responsible. It is a safe company to go diving with. Strongly strongly recommend this place!
