We never had never done this before so we were a bit nervous about it. Lynne explained everything in detail, helped us with our gear and showed pictures of the fish we might see. And we did see a lot of fish. It was the most amazing experience!! Lynne gave us the time we needed to get comfortable under water with the mask. Highly recommended.

We had such a fun and memorable experience with our family! Lynne was an incredible host - she walked us through everything from start to finish and was extremely knowledgeable. We saw so many fish and truly enjoyed every moment. We would absolutely recommend this experience to friends and family. Special thanks to the kind lifeguards at Tower 2F for allowing us to leave our belongings nearby - it was greatly appreciated!

Great experience!! Lynne made sure we were all comfortable in the water and that we all got a full experience. Got to see many fish, including many of the rare ones, it really was a great day🐠☀️ Even got to see an eel and a sea cucumber. Getting a video and photos made this a full package for a very affordable price.

Memories For A Life Time

Marco_R, Aug 2025
Our snorkeling experience with our two teenage grand-daughters was incredible leaving us all with memorable laughter, silliness, beautiful surroundings and a sense that we were all safe with your pre-instructions, guidance and watchful eye as you gave our family personal space but monitored our safety. Bravo!!!

I have never been so close to fish before without the fish being in an aquarium. This was a very well organized and extremely fun snorkeling experience. We really appreciated the instructor accepting and being prepared for all levels of swimmers and snorkelers! We highly recommend this experience! We love the photos and video that are included. Thank you so much!

Lynne was great!

KellyRae_B, Aug 2025
We were able to schedule less than 24 hrs advance. Yay! Unfortunately though the session was canceled due to high wave warmings. Lynne reached out to us to advise us. She was so kind and professional and refunded our reservation. Sad for us and sad for her losing business. But better to be safe than sorry.

Response from Host, Dec 2025

thank you for leaving such a nice review despite having to cancel. Mahalo, Lynne

Great memories!

You'll learn about the fish you'll see. She'll explain the best spots to snorkel. You'll get a wonderful video and pictures of your experience. Lynn is very helpful and patient.

Amazing experience

Codi_B, Apr 2025
We had the best time snorkeling with Lynne! She was super knowledgeable and made the whole experience easy and fun for our family. She pointed out so many cool things we would have missed on our own. Plus, she took an amazing video and a bunch of great photos — and got them back to us really quickly! It was such a fun day, and now we have awesome memories to look back on. Highly recommend Lynne if you’re looking for a great snorkeling adventure with your family!

Amazing memory!!

Faith_G, Apr 2025
We had such an amazing time , seen so many fish , and we’re beyond pleased with the photos and video go pro footage that was provided with the tickets! Before the actual snorkeling we were able to learn about the different fishes and ocean life that we may see , that made it more fun and interesting as I was able to have specific fish to look forward to/hoped to see! This was my favorite part of our Waikiki vacation. I recommend you gain this experience!!
