This experience was...

This experience was amazing! The guides were fantastic with everyone. We ended up with about 20 Galapagos sharks around us and a couple of barracuda. After the trip they provided us with a ton of photos and videos of our trip for free! I would definitely recommend this!

Waikiki Sunset Boat Cruise

MarcusFlavio_D, Jul 2026

Abby was very nice and trip went smoothly

Very nice melow ride in a very large boat. Fitted 25 people in our group very comfortably. The trip was very beautiful and a special thanks to our boat attendant Abby, who did an excellent job taking pictures of us and giving some of her story on how she got to Hawaii from Delaware. I highly recommend this boat trip to see the sunset. It’s 1.5 hrs of round trip.

Luxury Snorkel Cruise with Dolphin Watch and Local Buffet

Had a blast! The...

Had a blast! The catamaran is super nice and extremely spacious. We had a smaller group for our tour ~20 which was perfect as everyone had plenty of space to relax on the front deck without being on top one another. The’ll cruise for ~an hour to begin the trip allowing you to soak in the beautiful sights of the coast and if you’re lucky you might see a pod of dolphins! We ran into a group of what must’ve been 20-30 of them and watched as they swam and played alongside the boat. You’ll then have ~an hour (maybe a bit more) to snorkel and swim. On the way back we were treated to a tasty BBQ Buffett and an open bar. Would highly recommend for couples and families alike

An Unforgettable Snorkeling Adventure with an Amazing Crew!

This was such a memorable experience! The scenery was absolutely breathtaking, and getting to watch dolphins in the wild and see a sea turtle living its best life was incredible. The crew made the day even more special. They were fun, friendly, and genuinely cared about everyone on board. I especially want to thank Captain Ben, Ingrid, Kainoa, Kiara, and Kyoka. My oldest son is autistic (high functioning), and they were so attentive, patient, and thoughtful. They made sure he was comfortable and enjoying himself throughout the trip. As a parent, that meant the world to me. A huge mahalo to all of you for your kindness and compassion! Ingrid was also incredibly knowledgeable about the island and shared so many interesting facts that made the experience even better. I also highly recommend purchasing the photo package. I'm so glad I did! Kiara captured so many beautiful photos, allowing me to stay present and enjoy the adventure while knowing those special moments were being preserved. This was truly one of the highlights of our Hawaii vacation, and I would absolutely do it again. Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Waikiki, Hawaii: Turtle Canyon Snorkel Excursion

Rachel_S, Jul 2026

What sets this tour apart...

What sets this tour apart from others is the guided snorkelling experience. The staff were knowledgeable about where to go and what to look for. They were very clear on safety and helped manage the group whilst in the water around numerous other water craft and snorkelling groups. Easy to get to the meeting place on the 42 bus.

Waikiki: 2-Hour Whale Watching with Guaranteed Sightings on Oahu

Dustin_M, Apr 2026

Super fun with great hosts! Will be back next time I'm in Hawaii!

While we didn't see any whales (it was late in the season, so I knew it would be a risk) we still had a lot of fun! The captain and workers (I'm sorry I forgot their names) were really funny. They made jokes, sang parody songs about whales, and even got other people on the boat to get out of their comfort zone and make "whale noises" into the microphone. So even though we didn't see the whales, it was still worth every penny and I plan on taking advantage of their guarantee to get a free ride in the future to see the whales, even if it is another 10 years before I make it back to Hawaii! 10 out of 10, 100%, A+! Highly recommend!

2 Hour Waikiki Whale Watching Cruise from Oahu

Derrick_S, Mar 2026

Whales and more!

This boat and crew are awesome… they do there best to put you on whales, but right out the gate we saw dolphins doing a show and Sea turtles cruising. We did see some spouts and one hump but due to bad weather recently the whales were very shy. On the way back to dock we had an up close encounter with a monk seal right at the boat.

Great whale watching experience

This was a great experience! The boat is quite big and easily fit the 16 passengers on our tour. Captain Quin, Keoni, and Jesse were a great crew! Very friendly and quite knowledgeable about whales. We were able to see several whales and some were quite close to our boat! The free drinks were a nice plus. The overall experience was top notch!
