I highly recommend this tour! The tour size was kept very reasonable. There was plenty of room on board to move around, sit comfortably, and personal attention was given to each passenger. Refreshments were also provided on board. Huge shoutout to Captain Greg for the smooth sailing and Joe for being an amazing tour guide. Both were charismatic, personable, and knowledgeable. Their appreciation for nature was also apparent and added to our excitement. None of my group had any snorkeling experience, but we were given clear instructions and tips to get the most out of our time in the water. The guys clearly knew their stuff because we ended up seeing so many turtles as well as a variety of fish, sea urchins, reefs, etc. We truly enjoyed our time and would book with them again! Also, one of my group was getting nauseous/sea-sick, and the crew was able to help her out which was very appreciated. 10/10 experience

Everyone of the leaders and Xaprine (Corine) were incredible helpful and patient. They made us feelsafw at all times. Before going in the water they gave us a Coast Guard safety briefing and once we went in the water two of the staff members went inside with us andade us feel safe. They gave clear instructions and were empathetic at all times. My daughter with special needs stayed on the boat (she didn't want to snorkel) so the captain kept her entertained by having her throw fish food in the water to attract the fish. My daughter ended up seeing lots of fish and sea turtles without leaving the boat. Everyone else who snorkeled had an amazing time in the water. We also saw lots of fish and sea turtles including a baby one. Once we went back on the boat the staff was very hospitable asking what we wanted to drink and for snack. What an amazing crew! I highly recommend this tour. Also, our group was small compared to others. Maybe about at most 20 people on the boat so not as crowded as other tours out there.

Basic boat and tour, so the price is great for this tour.
This tour brings you to turtle canyon which does have turtles and a good amount of fish. Safety was important and overall good experience.

We had a great time and saw SO many turtles, we were in the 9:15 tour which may have been a factor. The crew was not only hospitable, they gave clear instructions and took time to help my son get comfortable and all his gear on correctly. They know a ton about the fish and wildlife in the area too!

Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. We saw lots of fish and Turtles. The snavk and drink at the end was refreshing

Our family had an unbelievable experience! The crew was amazing, and we saw so many beautiful fish and sea turtles. I was a little disappointed that we didn’t get to see Sushi the dog, but everything else was absolutely incredible.
My two kids were so happy and had the best time on this tour. It was an unforgettable experience, and I would truly recommend this excursion to anyone visiting. Thank you for making such wonderful family memories!

Went on a snorkel adventure yesterday.
Although it was breezy and the swell was picking up, Shannon, Lucy, Crash and Sushi 🐠 made sure that we had a great time. We saw many fish and so many turtles. Just being on the catamaran was also very special. The team was very entertaining and did a great job running the experience safely.
Haley_S, Jul 2026
It was very crowded in the water (multiple boats full of tourists all in the water at once) & the visibility was poor. It was easier to see the turtles from above the water than under. The guides were nice though
Melanie_P, Jul 2026
Joe, Margaret and Greg were fabulous! Conditions were a bit rough, but they did a great job of informing us and guiding us through the experience and best of all, we saw turtles!
Also kudos to all the staff that worked with us to get on the boat when unexpected traffic almost caused us to miss our time.
Theresa_V, Jul 2026
Great tour! Saw so many turtles and fish. Margaret, Joe and Greg were great and made us feel safe throughout the whole experience.

We had an amazing time! We definitely saw turtles and dolphins, which made the experience even more special. We arrived a little late, but the crew was incredibly accommodating and waited for us. Everyone was friendly, professional, and made sure we had a fantastic trip. Highly recommend this tour!

Great and friendly crews! Snacks & drinks included, they swim with you as back ups . Water can be rough_er
Dorothy_F, Jul 2026
Put this on your to do list NOW! The water is amazing- if you chill easily wear a body suit (half) or skin one.
Katelyn_T, Jul 2026
Shannon, Lucy, and Crash were super helpful on our tour! They were extremely knowledgeable about snorkeling and made sure we felt safe and informed about snorkeling. Shannon specifically shared lots about turtles and it was so cool to hear about! I have no negative notes, everyone was so friendly and it was an incredible experience.
Megan_M, Jul 2026
Very laid back and knowledgeable crew, made the whole experience easy and fun even for first timers. We saw many turtles and fish, as well as a playful pod of dolphins on the way back to the harbor.
Nicholas_P, Jul 2026
Captain Kareem and Joe were amazing! They made sure we had a great time heading out to the snorkeling spot. Once in the water, Joe made sure that every time a turtle was in the area, we were able to see it. And then my daughter's favorite party was when we got back on the boat, they had snacks and drinks for us. Highly recommend then to go snorkeling with and to see turtles!
frecoder, Jul 2026
We had a great turtle excursion. Karim, Luci, and Margarat made us feel extremely comfortable. We would definitely recommend this trip to our friends and family!
Grace_W, Jul 2026
We had a great time snorkeling and saw several sea turtles and many cool fish!
Lucy, Margaret, and Kareem were great hosts, and we appreciated the clear directions and guidance. The ride on the boat was comfy, and we had beautiful views to and from the snorkeling site. As we headed out at the beginning, we were fortunate to encounter a pod of spinner dolphins. Fun bonus! And the snacks and drinks were perfect on the ride back.
Thanks for a great morning excursion!
Brent_H, Jul 2026
Shannon, our guide, was awesome. We saw 20-25 turtles, hundreds of fish and even a reef shark. One of the best snorkeling trips I’ve been on
Myriam_A, Jul 2026
Such a beautiful experience. I would go again if I could. My daughter was scared but the staff were so helpful and sweet allowing her to feed the fishes to make her comfortable. Definitely take a waterproof camera or case for your phone to capture the experience. It was the highlight of our visit and thank you to the staff for making it a comfortable and positive experience 🌺❤️

Allison_C, Jul 2026
Excellent experience! First trip snorkeling with my 8-year-old and 10-year-old. They LOVED it. We saw turtles and many fish close up. Great afternoon!
Tonya_S, Jul 2026
The staff ( Shannon & Joe ) excellent and patient with all guest , especially children !cccccccccccc
Ariel_L, Jul 2026
You will definitely see turtles. It was a great experience with a great crew. They were helpful in pointing out fish or turtles
Rhona_S, Jul 2026
You're in good hands. you'll see lots of fish and turtles. If I could only do 1 activity in Honolulu, this would be it. A nice boat ride, good instructions for snorkelling and safety, snacks afterwards. A seasoned skipper, 2 helpers, and a doggy on board. What could be better?
