This tour was awesome!...

This tour was awesome! The guides were very professional, kind, and knowledgeable. They also took incredible photos and videos. It was about a 15-minute boat ride out to the dive site, and then we spent around 30 minutes snorkeling with the sharks. Absolutely book this tour!

Waikiki Turtle Snorkeling & 6-in-1 Adventure with Free Pickup

Yao_L, Aug 2026

Best snorkling in Waikiki

The whole crew is amazing. Dustin my man from MO, he’s attentive and kind to me and my little one. Every time there’s a turtle or stingray sighting, he and other crew will even take the GoPro and go to the bottom to take better pictures and videos for us. Same goes to the whole crew, they make sure everyone has a great experience. Snacks, drinks, ramen, Maxim coffee, we are taken very care of. 12 out of 10 recommending doing it when you are on Waikiki.

Waikiki, Hawaii: Turtle Canyon Snorkel Excursion

David_M, Aug 2026

Truely excellent experience

The staff were great fun. Kept things moving at a decent pace and made sure we all had fun. Ensured we were all safe at all times. Very efficient with checkin, equipment hand put, collection etc... Handled the different level of experience well. We were lucky to see six turtles up close, as well as a few stingrays. Best of all a few dolphins decided to join party swimming right through turtle canyon. Truely excellent experience!

Luxury Snorkel Cruise with Dolphin Watch and Hawaiian Meal

Erin_B, Aug 2026

Great time and oh so beautiful

Captain Patrick and his crew did a fantastic job. My wife and I really enjoyed ourselves. We saw the beautiful Hawaiian terrain; giving us a positively different perspective from the water. We saw Hawaiian Spinner dolphins with babies, turtles, manta ray, absolutely stunning flying fish and beautiful crystal clear blue water. Well worth booking this excursion.

Waikiki Glass Bottom Boat Cruise

Elizabeth_D, Aug 2026

Glass bottom-ish but that’s okay!

The captains were so kind and sweet. A nice one hour trip with turtles and schools and fish. It was relaxing all around. If you’re expecting a completely glass bottom - don’t. There are a few bays on the deck that allow you to look down and see a glass bottom. It’s a bit underwhelming in that sense but I would still rate this a 5 out of 5 experience.

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.

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!

Sunset Whale Watch in Waikiki, Whales Guaranteed or Free Return

TuyetVan_B, Apr 2026

Sunset whale watching is a fun experience.

It was a great experience to cruise a long the coastline looking at the city and Diamond Head with beautiful sunset. We saw a few whales sightings and dolphins. Staff were very knowledgeable on whale migration. Great service and friendly talks of staff made the sailing so joyful. We loved the sailing.
