Oahu Private Boat Tour - Dolphin Watch Cruise & Snorkel Adventure (from Waianae)
Dolphins splash along the Waianae Coast
Embark on a private boat charter adventure from West Oahu along the Waianae Coast, where you can snorkel with dolphins & create the perfect group getaway for up to 38 people!
The Waianae Coast, along Oahu's west side, is renowned for clear waters that reveal sea life teeming beneath the surface, most famous of which are the pods of Hawaiian spinner dolphins that frequently appear in the area, breaking the waterline to splash along passing boats. This area is popular for snorkeling, as it offers some of the island's best chances for marine life encounters. Reasonably priced private charters are an excellent choice for guests travelling in groups. Swimming, snorkeling & simple cruise options are all available at a great flat rate.
Points to Consider
Travel Tips
- Great for guests staying in Ko Olina (pick-up also available from Waikiki)
- Although not guaranteed, this charter offers a very high chance of dolphin sightings
- Splitting the charter cost with your group can give everyone an amazing deal (only $35 per person with a full group!)
Travel Tips
- Bring snacks with you - There won't be many chances to pick things up along the way, and there aren't many shops around the harbor.
- Use the bathroom before you leave - The boat does not have restrooms on board.
- Talk to the crew and let them know your interests - Once the crew knows what kind of experience you're after, they can help you have the perfect day on the water.
