It was fun. I should be able to write whatever I wish, and not with an expectation of a minimum amount of letters
John_L, May 2026
You go down over 100 feet and get to see Sea turtles, Barracuda, and many other fish, we really enjoy the view down there every one should do this Thanks we really enjoyed it
MaryAnn_R, May 2026
This submarine experience is well worth it! It was amazing & interesting to see & explore part of our world we know so little about. It makes my heart happy to know that this company is giving back to preserve nature for future generations. The submarine is clean & comfortable for the tour. The Captain & First Mate were very knowledgeable & love working on this sub. It was a wonderful experience & we plan on going again.
Justin_W, May 2026
Got to see the ocean from a different perspective! Very memorable and a bucket list item checked off.
Phillip_W, May 2026
Great 2hr excursion that takes you exploring the sea life that is about 110 ft below the surface. Crew members are knowledgeable, friendly, and humorous. The boat ride out to the submarine is approximately 15-20 minutes each way. The sub ride below the surface is approximately 1hr. We saw both the natural reef as well as the man-made reefs, that the submarine company helped build & maintain. We found the guide’s info very interesting & informative. We saw an abundance of sea life. Seen sharks, turtles, starfish, sting-rays, and multiple species of fishes. Would definitely recommend this tour and hope to one day do it again.

The submarine ride was excellent and the guide gave very informative information on all the wreckage and of all the different types of fish
Matthew_R, May 2026
Coolest part was seeing the submarine breach and climbing down. We didn’t see much marine life as it was dense, but the overall customer service and experience was still great.
Shannon_J, May 2026
It was a fun trip, they were very professional and funny. We got to learn some things along the way and see lots of different fish and turtles. I would recommend it for a nice event in a day.

You don't see anything real interesting. We saw some fish and a few turtles. They're wasn't much color to behold. It definitely wasn't worth the price. However, the guide was great! He had a wonderful personality and was very humorous.

We're sorry to hear that it wasn't as exciting as you had hoped. The ocean is often quite unpredictable, and sightings of underwater life vary from hour to hour.

It was neat to see the shipwrecks and aircraft in the dive site at max depth of 100 feet. Only reason it doesn’t get 5 stars is price

Enjoyed the experience. Water a little hazy but could still see the fish. Coral coloring was a little hard to see due to lighting and haze.

Mahalo for your review! We're so happy to hear you enjoyed your submarine adventure with us! It is indeed often a once-in-a-lifetime experience to see marine life up close while diving in a real submarine, and we're happy to know you got to see some incredible marine life!
It is true, at depths past 50 feet, a phenomenon called "color absorption" occurs. This means that fish and coral that would have bright colors near the surface take on a more dull hue, and often everything will appear blue. However, this is just a perk of getting to see the ocean at depths you wouldn't normally get to experience.

Yogesh_M, Apr 2026
It’s a good experience, but does not justify the price you pay. The submarines goes down to a depth of 100ft which is great, but the artificial car and the lack of variety of fish leaves a lot to desire for.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Aloha,
Thank you for taking the time to share your review with us. We are sorry to hear that your recent adventure was less exciting than you had hoped, but are glad that you enjoyed the experience of traveling to the bottom of the sea in a submarine. Unfortunately, Waikiki has very sparse natural reef environments, and over the past 100 years, the natural reef has been disappearing. In collaboration with the University of Hawaii Sea Grant Program, Atlantis has created many expansive artificial reef environments that have helped reef and marine life flourish. We hope that with a little time and care, our natural reefs will continue to grow.
The ocean is often quite unpredictable, and sightings of underwater life vary from hour to hour. We appreciate your valuable feedback and will be sure to share it with our team
Mahalo for joining us, and we hope to welcome you back in the future!

This was an amazing underwater wonderland! My husband and I took our 8 year old son who was completely captivated! We saw lots of tropical fish along with a few sea turtles, star fish, several sharks, and even a sting ray! We joined the 1/10th of 1% of people who have been that deep in the ocean!! Pretty amazing!

Most people have never been on a submarine so this was a very unique way to view sea life that few get to experience. I took my husband and 6 year old daughter on the excursion and we all enjoyed it very much. It was raining the day and we were afraid it might be cancelled but there were not issues. Highly recommend.
