Hawaii Summer Expedition | Pacific Discovery
Program Overview
Are you ready for the ultimate summer adventure? Join us in O'ahu, Hawaii, for an immersive two-week travel experience designed for students ages 17-22 who want to upskill, explore, and make an impact. Whether you are passionate about marine conservation, adventure sports, or simply looking to challenge yourself in paradise, this program is your gateway to hands-on learning, skill-building, and ocean exploration.
You’ll dive deep into Hawaii’s vibrant marine ecosystem, starting with PADI Open Water Diver Certification to gain the essential skills to explore the underwater world confidently. Next, take your diving to the next level with the Conservation Diver Ecological Monitoring Program, where you’ll learn to assess reef health, identify marine species, and contribute to vital conservation efforts. Beyond diving, immerse yourself in Hawaii’s adventure culture with surf lessons on the iconic North Shore, snorkeling in the famous Shark’s Cove, and hands-on service projects that help protect the island’s delicate environment.
This is an opportunity to gain real-world skills, make lifelong connections, and have a positive, measurable impact on the environment.
