Radisson Kauai Beach Resort Introduces New Scuba Certification Package

Jul 30, 2004
Located on a three-mile stretch of beach on Kauai’s Coconut Coast, the Radisson Kauai Beach Resort has introduced a new package designed for travelers who want to explore the undersea world in Kauai’s tropical waters and obtain their scuba certification.

In conjunction with Wet-N-Wonderful Ocean Sports Inc., Radisson’s Kauai Scuba Adventure Package combines hotel accommodations and amenities with a scuba certification program for novice divers.

The five-night package includes deluxe accommodations, PADI scuba certification program for two people, airport shuttle transportation, an invitation to a nightly Manager’s Cocktail Party, nightly torch-lighting ceremony with Polynesian dance show and complimentary tennis on the hotel’s four courts. Based on double occupancy, the five-night plan is priced from $1,195 for two through Dec. 20.

“Kauai has one of the top six dive spots in the world according to Outside magazine,” said Tom Bartlett, director of sales and marketing for the Radisson Kauai Beach Resort. “So it’s an experience divers don’t want to miss.”

Opening in 1986, Wet-N-Wonderful specializes in first-time dive experiences. The company provides scuba training and certification at all levels, but also offers a range of other scuba services, including shore dives for certified divers.

The PADI Certification Course offered on the Kauai Scuba Adventure Package lasts three to five days and includes an introductory ocean dive, instruction and study based on the PADI open-water manual, underwater training in a confined area, then four open-water dives. A satisfactory score on the 50-question final exam is required in order to obtain a PADI Open Water Certification.

“Also between Aug. 25 and Oct. 15, we have a special for couples meaning any two people traveling together,” Bartlett explained. “If they book select activities, they’ll receive a 50 percent discount off the second person’s activity. This can be booked through participating wholesalers or with the property directly.”

Bartlett added that this “Couples Special” can be combined with other packages and promotions, including the Kauai Scuba Adventure Package.

Bartlett invites travel professionals to contact him directly at [email protected] if they have questions regarding the scuba package, couples package or travel agent incentives offered by the Radisson Kauai Beach Resort.

“I also have ‘Tom’s Tips,’ which contains information on dining and great beaches around the island,” said Bartlett. “So agents can feel free to contact me about anything on Kauai and the Radisson.”

The 25-acre beachfront Radisson Kauai Beach Resort features 340 rooms, seven suites, complete meeting and banquet facilities, three restaurants, boutique spa and fitness center, tennis courts, and “super pool” complex with three swimming pools set amidst waterfalls and grottoes, and a fourth pool featuring a sandy bottom.
