Ko Olina Ocean Adventures Snorkel with Wild Dolphins Rafting Tour [Open Soon]
Overall Rating
4.71Mediocre dolphin snorkel
Reviewed by: Sarah, 2017/08/04We never found any dolphins, so we just snorkeled in the exact same location twice.
We were also required to wear life vests, which is unusual compared to most other excursions we've been on.
Ate lunch at 3:00 and off the boat.
Not the "speed raft" adrenaline adventure we were hoping for.

Find the Dolphins
Reviewed by: Ronaldo Fontoura, 2014/11/15The promissed was to swim with Dolphins but not guaranteed. I Know but it is almost impossible considering open sea and the reasonable visibility.

So So....
Reviewed by: The Langes, 2011/04/02The tour was very predictable. There wasnt much "uniqueness" about this tour. The wait time to even board the boat was extremely excessive. There were 3 people at the check in counter and only 1 of them was accepting people and checking them in while the other 2 enjoyed the chaos. After waiting in line to check in for over 30 minutes we were herded outside only to hurry up and wait some more. Boarding the boat finally approached and we sat there for another 20 minutes while they explained snorkeling to the group. Once we got to the first snorkeling site we waited on the boat another 20 minutes before getting in the water. After about 30 minutes in the water the captain demanded that we all get back in the boat. Now we were off to see the dolphins. This was about a 40 minute ride up the coast. The view was great. Once we arrived at the dolphin site we all took turns getting in the water and watching for them to swim underneath us. Not with us but underneath us. Okay, it was pretty cool

Hawaii Dolphin Swim & Snorkel
Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous, 2011/01/28Staff were great and lunch was nice however took a long time to actually see any dolphins. However we did eventually find them in addition to turtles, seals and whales. Stayed a long way away from them and couldnt get a close look. Boat ride was lots of fun which made up for the long wait. I was under the impression from the tours description that you could swim with or near the dolphins however this is not the case at all and only saw them for a few minutes before being taken far away to a snorkle spot.

Hi Rolando, we do try our best, but yes sometimes the dolphins are around the corner or just unable to be located. We see them about 90% of the time, but some days are trickier than others. We hope you enjoyed the snorkeling and clear water our islands had to offer anyway. Thank you for coming with us, we hope that you can try again. Many thanks, Ko Olina Ocean Adventures
