It was OK. Nothing was explained well. Water was cold and did not expect to be hanging by the side of board for half hour to watch them coming at you! Very inconvenient, cold and ill-explained activity. Although staff was helpful. Wished they listened to the individual difficulties to understand. Could have enjoyed better with help.

The crew was fun, safe and respectful as well as extremely fun! We saw a minimum of 3 and a max of well… it was 7 or 8 at once. We were all so pleased with this even and I highly recommend going at sunset.
The rays were magnificent and gentle for such large creatures. They truly are a sight to see.
Will do this again on our next visit.

The canoe was a very cool option and keeps the number of people in the group low. The boat sailed a very short distance to the manta viewing area- great for me as I tend to get motion sick. The water was warmer than I thought- again great for me bc I think I’m allergic to cold water. I wore my own wetsuit but they provided everyone with a proper wetsuit top. I wore both and was fine. Our 12yo said he was cold but didn’t complain.
We were all provided snorkels and masks. We all got into the water and held onto a floating device equipped with an underwater light. There we’re several mantas in the area and a few of them swam within inches of us! One touched my arm with its belly. We were in the water about 30 minutes at best guess which was plenty of time in my opinion. I specifically booked a shorter tour for fear of getting sick or freezing but none occurred.
Overall it was a very cool experience and our guides were friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful! Definitely recommend this adventure!

The journey was well organised and on time. The team was really cheerful and fun.
We could see Manta Rays swimming below us all along our time in the water. I liked to learn about Manta Rays while seeing them. It was one of the best moment on the island, Magic!

It was my first time back in Hawaii in three years, and my first time participating in this cruise in three years as well. The weather was probably the best I've ever experienced. The ocean seemed to be clearer than before. Wearing masks is optional. If you're concerned, it might be a good idea to bring your own mask and snorkel. Prices have gone up compared to before, but the easy snorkeling off Waikiki and the enjoyable cruising experience are worth it.
3年ぶりのハワイ、3年ぶりのこのクルーズへの参加でした。今までで多分1番のお天気。海がキレイになったような気がします。マスク着用は自由です。気になる方はマイマスク、シュノーケル持参がいいかもしれません。以前と比べて値上がっていますが、ワイキキ沖でのお手軽シュノーケル、気持ちいいクルージングは価値ありです。

I couldn’t experience more, than I had on our boat trip to Lanai
It’s perfect size of boat if you want to see views without other passengers heads in front of you, actually hear interesting and fun stories from captain and feel close to water.
We saw so many dolphins, colorful fish, turtles and learned a lot about these islands. As a bonus I got stung by a jelly fish, but I’ll take it as a very unique experience lol
If you’re very picky about food, bring your own, but for me it wasn’t important at that moment. They have different drinks and water, so nothing to worry about.
Both captains are super friendly and knew what they do.
Thank you guys!

We were the only Japanese participants on the English tour, but the staff were friendly, which eased our worries and allowed us to enjoy the experience. I was also concerned about seasickness, but the boat didn't sway as much as I had anticipated. The food was delicious. It would have been even better if the meeting and disbanding locations were closer to the Kaanapali area, as having transportation included would have been ideal.
英語のツアーで日本人は私達親子だけでしたが、スタッフの皆さんがフレンドリーで、不安は無くなり楽しめました。船酔いも心配していましたが、予想していたほど揺れなかったです。食事は美味しかったです。集合、解散場所がカアナパリ地区から遠かったので、送迎付きだと尚良かったです。

What a great snorkel experience. This is a must-do for all Waikiki visitors. Cost wise, it is a great value, and only takes up 2 hours of your day. We saw about 6 turtles and lots of colorful fish. The crew was very nice & helpful. So glad we did this and would highly recommend to others.

So fun! This is one of my favorite boats. I liked that it had a covered cabin area for those who wanted to get out of the sun for a bit. The start time mid-morning was great to have a bit of a sleep-in. We headed out to Turtle Canyon, about 5-10 minutes sail from the shoreline. The snorkel gear and fins were good quality and we saw TONS of turtles!! After snorkeling for about an hour, the crew sailed the Waikiki coastline to Diamond Head and we had lunch while we sailed. This one also comes with 2 drinks. The boat was pretty spacious so we had room to move around. Overall, great experiences & great crew!!

100ft underwater. We saw turtles, fish, sunken ships, and sunken planes! Visibility on the day we went was crystal clear and we took tons of photos. I went with my good friend and she brought her 4-year-old. He absolutely loved it!! One thing though, the shuttle boat from shore to the submarine drop zone can be really windy. I packed a jacket which the kiddo was glad that I need since it got a little breezy. Once we were in the submarine, it's fully air-conditioned so I'd have a light jacket if you get cold easily.

Sharks!! Yes...SHARKS. And yes, you CAN see them from the boat. It's wild to see such majestic creatures in their natural habitat. You go a few miles offshore for this trip so it does get choppy. We did an early morning tour which has calmer ocean conditions than the later tours. And I am so glad we did! We only had a super light breakfast before going out (think a bit of fruit, light bites only).

I took my niece on this snorkel sail, and we both had a fantastic time. The captain and crew are so friendly, and we great about making sure we were both safe and comfortable in the water. Not only were there lots of fish at the snorkel spot, but we saw a bunch of turtles as well. The crew is also really good about making sure we didn't get too close to them, but also pointed out the turtles when they would come to the surface. The snacks they provided were greatly appreciated after over an hour of swimming and snorkeling, and I loved that they turned off the motor on the way back to the harbor so we could actually sail with just the sound of the ocean and wind. 10/10 would recommend!

I've been to Oahu many times. I brought my fiance this time since he's never been. I wanted him to try out snorkeling and see things other than fish, so the turtle tour was a perfect fit. Honestly the crew did a great job. Even the people we had on the boat with us doing the tour was a wonderful group. The only few downsides were: it rained. And I mean it poured! Not for very long and I'm sure the people in the water didn't notice it much, but I was sitting on the boat at the time and I was trying to cover our backpack and towels, since we would need them to dry off later, and it was coming down like pellets. But it didn't last more than 10-15 min and was more or less over. But the sky stayed dark making it hard to see through the already dark water. The turtles became less visible and it made our whole group decide to get out of the water and come back onto the boat to head back in. We were out there for a good amount of time but not the full time. The other problem we had was it got very crowded in the water looking at the turtles. 4 other boats full of passengers were doing other turtle tours as well. There was just a lot of people bumping into each other. I tried to stay away from most people and still saw a ton of turtles, but my fiance on the other hand had a harder time. It was also scary when I'd look up and not see him through all these other people. The last problem was that there were a few people who didn't know how to swim or snorkel. So it took a long time to explain how to use the snorkel equipment and pass out floaties. The positives were the boat was smooth sailing. Everyone was on time and nice. The turtles were wonderful. Hard to see them when they get super deep but they were big and beautiful and did not disappoint. Lots of fish to see too. The couple who run the boat are wonderful and so are there family who came and helped out as well. For the price I would definitely recommend this and probably do it again when we go back!

Overall the onboarding was smooth, there were clear instructions sent over email, there were enough (paid but cheap) parking spots at harbor. The boat was quipped and left on time. We all were free to roam on boat + take pick where needed as long as 3 point of contacts were maintained all the times.
They have plenty of noodles, snorkel mask cleaning gel. If you want life vests, carry yours. They even had prescription mask(mine was -5) and it made overall experience much better. The day we did tour, there weren't many variety of fishes, may be because it was cloudy. Food was good and served in buffet style.
After spending ~1hr at Molokini, the boat went to Turtle Town, where there were fishes and beautiful reef. They even let us jump from boat :)

I could hardly understand the explanation since it was in English only. The guide mentioned that headphones with explanations in Japanese would be available, but when I asked, I was told it was English only. I got bored just looking at the simple underwater scenery.

It started with a great day, very little wind which made the water very calm. Boat rode out was smooth, and finally arriving to the cage we were immediately greeted with sharks, and not just any sharks but 3 TIGER SHARKS!!. I know that TIGERS are rare for the area but the fact that 3 were there for the entire dive was amazing. The crew were awesome in ensuring that everyone was calm and answered any questions.
