Lightly oil grill and preheat to medium.

Remove scallops from bag and discard marinade. Thread 4 scallops onto 2 side-by-side skewers, repeat making 4 skewers. Thread pineapple chunks onto skewers.

Place skewers on preheated oiled grill and cook 3-4 minutes per side. Grill pineapple about 4 minutes. Remove from grill and serve with pina colada dipping sauce.
