Hawaii Manta Ray Sunset & Night Time Snorkel Experience from Kona - Iruka

Beautiful!

Reviewed by: Evelia

This experience was amazing!

We went to Hawaii for our honeymoon and we can't stop talking about how cool this experience was.

We got to see BIG and BEAUTIFUL mantarays and they were really close too.

The guys from the crew were also super nice, funny and told us lots of interesting facts about the marine life.

West Oahu Snorkel Cruise with Dolphin Watch, Kayak, SUP, Waterslide & Lunch

Too Crowded

Reviewed by: Megan Rish

The dolphin tour was so crowded and even though the guide was friendly and the people were very friendly there were just too many. Many people didn’t actually get to see the dolphins in the water and were being kicked with fins because of how crowded it was. We will not be doing that again unless there are less people.

Aloha Megan,
We are sorry to hear that you found the tour too crowded and will pass this feedback onto our operations management. We have modified operations this month so that we are better dispersing guests between tours available. We are also actively researching for the optimal passenger count that allows us to serve as many guests as possible who dream of swimming with dolphins while still prioritizing safety and comfort. We hope this helps to demonstrate our commitment to your satisfaction. Mahalo and aloha!

The crew were excellent on our trip for my birthday on 28 September 2021. The snorkeling was very well managed by the team. The entertainment was first class. Just wish I had made a note of their names on the 12.30pm trip. Thanks.

2-Hour Kaanapali Sunset Cocktail Cruise with Open Bar & Appetizers - Sea Maui

Wonderful Sunset Cocktail Sail

Reviewed by: Cindy

This is our second time choosing Sea Maui Kaanapali Sunset Cocktail Cruise. A bit concerned this year due to Covid restrictions, but Sea Maui did not fail! Easy boarding/seating, the crew was SO friendly and engaging. Immediately went around getting cocktail orders from everyone. After we set sail, we enjoyed the beautiful evening on the sea, again with crew refreshing drinks if needed. They do serve appetizers and two years ago the protocol was everyone got up and got their own - this year crew distributed pre-packaged containers with all they offered, sealed until they got to us! You were welcome to request more as well. A singer was on board who played music/sang for part of the sail.

It was a beautiful night out, never once did we feel "compromised" because of Covid and yes of course out on the sea we did not have to wear masks. I highly recommend Sea Maui Sunset Cocktail cruise - the price is right, crew is fantastic and it will make a very enjoyable relaxing evening. Well worth the money.

Shark Diving Hawaii - Cageless Pelagic Snorkel Tour with FREE Photos & Videos

Don't come to Oahu and not experience this adventure!!! It's worth the entire visit

Reviewed by: Jacquelyn

Amazing experience with these spectacular creatures that don't get the credit they deserve. This tour was definitely an eye opener and will give participants a far better and more educated perspective about not only the shark population but several others as well. Thank you IslandView Inc and the 3 guides who made the experience far more sensational than I suppose I was expecting.
The lead guys name was Sam but unfortunately, I don't recall the other two who were out in the water with us and taking photos. They absolutely made this adventure outstanding for us all!! You guys are awesome. I'll be back!!!

Kona Manta Ray Night Snorkel Tour - Small-Group Adventure from Keauhou Bay

Simply magical, but easy to get cold

Reviewed by: John

Really enjoyed this experience, the manta rays even touched me!

You can bring your own GoPro but it might be hard to film and hold on at the same time. You're not swimming, you're horizontally floating with a pool noodle at your ankles and your hands gripping a light bar that attracts plankton upon which the mantas feast.

It can get cold when you're in the water, so don't be afraid to bring dive boots, gloves, and your own wetsuit. You'll get a shorty top only and I was pretty chilly, even for a New Englander!

Waikiki Snorkel with Turtles Cruise with Beers & Cocktails - Ke Kai Catamaran

Catamaran boat out to snorkel with sea turtles.

Reviewed by: liz

The crew was friendly and talkative. We had never been snorkeling and they made it easy and comfortable. The area where we went there are multiple boats and people, that is not a poor reflection on this tour, but we didn't realize so many people would be in the same place. We did see turtles!! and fish and the reef. They take little time going back so you can get pictures with the view.

Hawaii Shark Encounters - North Shore Shark Cage Diving Tour from Haleiwa

Had a fantastic time

Reviewed by: Dmitry

Saw lots of Sharks! They come real close up! Crew was professional and very nice. There were 2 groups of 6 people each that took turns in the shark cage on our trip. Just be aware that while waiting on the boat for your turn (or waiting for the other group to finish their shark encounter) you are stuck on the boat and it can get real rocky. If you are prone to se sickness take proper precautions! My girlfriend was prone to sea sickness and suffered a bit while waiting on the boat but she made it through. All in all it was a great experience!!

I loved the experience of swimming near those sharks it was a unique experience to see how huge these animals are and how beautiful is the marine life. I thought I was going to see 2-3 sharks and when I arrived there were more than 20. The boat left on time. The staff was very nice, thoughtful. They made us feel safe and answered all our questions.
