2.5-Hour Waikiki Guided Turtle Snorkel Tour, Snacks & Drinks - Holokai Catamaran

Definitely worth it!

Reviewed by: Extremely satisfied

Outstanding crew aboard the Holokai Catamaran...Extremely friendly, helpful and fun. They made sure all guests were instructed in snorkel usage before entering the water and were right there next to us in the water ready to aid for any reason.
Our sail was extra exciting as dolphins swam around our catamaran, and we spotted whales too. We were able to swim amongst sea turtles and an array of fish.
*Would I recommend Holokai Catamaran Turtle Canyon Snorkel Sail to my friends and family?
YES!!
*Would I ever take this sail again?
ABSOLUTELY YES!!
Reasonably priced for this adventure with buffet and they do not over crowd the boat. They even had a snorkel with a prescription mask so I could see underwater without glasses.

I was able to swim with a turtle! カメと泳げました！

Reviewed by: アーニー

It was a luxury to be able to view the beach from the ocean side. Swimming with the turtles while snorkeling was a lot of fun. There were many turtles, and they seemed unfazed by the large number of tourists. Since we were on a boat, I didn't bring my camera or any money, so I couldn't take any photos, which was disappointing. If you have some pocket money, you can buy drinks.

ビーチを海側から眺められるのはぜいたくでよかった。
カメとシュノーケリングで一緒に泳げて楽しかった。
カメは何匹もいて、観光客がたくさんいても平気そうでした。
ボートだから、とカメラもお金ももっていなかなかったので、
写真がとれず、残念。お小遣いがあると、ドリンクが購入できます。

Excellent. Recommend it to anyone.

Reviewed by: Adrian

This was my first experience in the ocean and snorkelling and sailing. The crew was excellent. Professional, knowledgeable, and very fun. Felt very safe and comfortable at all times. Saw multiple sea turtles, tropical fish, an octopus, sea urchins, and an amazing view of diamond head and Waikiki beach. You won't regret it.

Best Dive!!!

Reviewed by: John Wood

I've been diving all over the world for the past 15 years and this is by far one of my favorites. Beautiful water with greater than 50 feet of visibility. Saw seven sea turtles up close and it was just a spectacular experience. Make sure to rent the fins from the beach, worth it. Crew was knowledgeable, friendly and just all around awesome. So was the house special drink. This is a not to missed experience with a company that makes it unforgettable. They will absolutely see me again.

Reviewed by: Kasevonne

We did some other snorkelling while in Hawaii and were quite disappointed. We were so glad we booked this trip to do some more. We were taken out to some deeper water and as soon as we jumped off the boat we saw multiple turtles! It was amazing. I have never seen turtles this big and so many in one spot. We spent about an hour snorkelling and then went on a sail out in the sun. The boat is quite spacious and room for groups to keep to themselves or sit with others. The staff were all very helpful and fun to have a chat to. I would definitely go out with these guys again if we return to Hawaii.

Seasickness 船酔い

Reviewed by: hayashi

We participated as a couple. As soon as we exited the hotel and reached the beach, we saw the boat, so we arrived without any confusion. There were about 20 participants that day, but we were the only Japanese people.

The weather was nice, and it was great that we got to see sea turtles. However, during snorkeling, there was an incident where my wife's life jacket lost air. Since she couldn't swim, she was quite panicked. I waved to the guide on the boat, but they just smiled and waved back, thinking it was a simple greeting, and didn’t come to help. When I shouted "Help" loudly, a guide swimming nearby brought a float, and we managed to resolve the situation. Perhaps there was an explanation on how to call for help during the initial English guidance.

When we got back on the boat, I found that my life jacket was also about 70% deflated. I had checked how to inflate it and how to maintain the valve with the guide, so the equipment itself might have been faulty.

After snorkeling, we cruised towards Diamond Head. The waves were quite big, and I ended up feeling sick. When I asked the guide where the restroom was because I thought I might throw up, I was told, "Don't throw up in the restroom," so I had to hold it in. Eventually, I couldn't hold it anymore and ended up using a plastic bag.

There were other guests who also felt sick, but after applying lavender essential oil, they received a bucket that said "Let's Do It" and were encouraged with "Let's Do it." There were several people who were rescued from near drowning and others who felt unwell, but they were all Asian. The Western guests seemed to be having a great time, drinking alcohol on the boat. It might be a tour more suited for Westerners (laughs).

夫婦二人で参加しました。
ホテルからビーチに出るとすぐに船が見えたため、迷うことなく到着。当日は20人ほど参加していましたが、日本人は私たち二人だけでした。
天気が良く、ウミガメにも会えた点は良かったです。
しかし、シュノーケリング中、妻の救命胴衣から空気が抜けるハプニングが発生。妻は泳げなかったのでかなり焦りました。船にいるガイドに手を振ったのですが、単なるコミュニケーションと思ったのかニコニコ手を振りかえしてくるだけで助けてもらえず。「Help」と大きな声を上げたところ近くで泳いでいたガイドさんが浮き輪を持ってきて来てくれて事なきを得ました。もしかしたら、最初の英語のガイダンスのところで助けの呼び方などの説明があったのかもしれません。船に上がると私の救命胴衣も7割ほど空気が抜けていました。空気の入れ方、弁の保持の仕方等はガイドさんにチェックしてもらい実施していたので道具自体が良くなかったのかもしれません。
シュノーケリング後はダイヤモンドヘッドの方などをクルージング。結構波が大きく、今度は私の気分が悪くなってしまいました。トイレで吐こうと思いガイドさんにトイレの場所を聞くと、「トイレでは吐くな」と言われ我慢することに。その後、とうとう我慢ができずにビニール袋に戻しました。
他のお客さんも気分が悪くなった人はいましたが、ラベンダーのアロマオイルを塗られた後、「Let's Do It」と書かれたバケツをもらい、「Let's Do it」と言われていました。
溺れかかって助けられた人、気分の悪くなった人は複数人いましたが全てアジア人。西洋人は船上でお酒をがぶがぶ飲みとても楽しそうでした。西洋人向きのツアーなのかもしれません（笑）

Went with my partner and our friend visiting in town, and had so much fun. There was only one other group of 3 on our morning trip so we had the whole boat to ourselves. The crew was really nice and fun to talk to, and the turtles were so fabulous and chill and beautiful and I want them to be my friends. Being out on a catamaran was refreshing too after the noise, tourists, etc. of being in Honolulu.

Turtles! TURTLES! MORE TURTLES!!!

Reviewed by: Hawaii Kitty

When they say "Turtles Guaranteed", they are not joking. After a quick sail from the harbor to the snorkel (about 15 to 20 minutes) we dived in to see like six or seven large Hawaiian green sea turtles relaxing beneath us. It was absolutely incredible :D

The spot they took us to is this amazing location where turtles like to congregate and chill out while they get their shells cleaned off by schools of fish. Since we went on the morning snorkel, we beat the crowds and got to swim and snorkel leisurely without any fuss.

I didn't think to bring a GoPro or an underwater camera, but if you have one, or can get your hands on one, DO IT! The photo opportunities are amazing. The turtles like to lazily swim around and they are just so photogenic.

Great tour! Can't wait to go again!!!

I participated in the first morning flight at 9:00. There was no wind, and the water surface was calm. Is the ocean in Waikiki really this beautiful? The color of the sea changes as you go further. I was able to see turtles while snorkeling—three of them, large, medium, and small. The sailing after snorkeling was also refreshing! I participate every time, and each time brings a different sense of wonder.

9:00発の朝一便で参加しました
風が無く水面も穏やか。ワイキキってこんなに海きれいだったけ？な程進むごとに海の色が変わります。スノーケルも亀ちゃんと見れます。大中小の3匹見れました。スノーケル後のセイリングも気持ちいい！！毎回参加してますが毎回違った感動があります

Everything from the location, weather, snorkeling tips, customer service and drinks contributed to all of us having a super day. We saw 8 to 10 turtles and much more marine life in two hours time. We even saw dolphins jumping high out of the water with Diamond Head in the background. Unfortunately they were so fast, I missed getting their pic. We will definitely take this trip again with this same outfit. Maybe the lunch or dinner trip. Can't wait to repeat!

I swam with a honu! ホヌと一緒に泳ぎました！

Reviewed by: のん吉

There were six participants in total, including my husband and me, along with four foreigners. The snorkeling was at a depth of about 7 to 8 meters. I wore a 2mm wetsuit, and the water felt quite cold, but it was an incredibly happy experience to swim alongside the large honu (sea turtles) while leisurely gliding through the water. In addition to the honu, I was surrounded by many black fish. My husband, who is not a strong swimmer, enjoyed sailing on the boat, but he was satisfied because he could also see the honu coming up for air from the boat! The staff was kind and friendly as well.

参加者は私たち夫婦と外国の方４名の計６名。シュノーケリングは水深7～8Ｍ程のところでしょうか。私は２ミリのウエット着用でしたがけっこう水は冷たくかんじましたが、スイスイの～んびり泳ぐ大きなホヌと一緒に泳くことができとっても幸せな体験でした。ホヌのほかにたくさんの黒い魚にも囲まれました。泳ぎのニガテな主人は船上でセイリングを楽しむだけでしたが、ホヌも息継ぎのために時々顔をだすので船の上からでもみることができ満足！とのこと。スタッフも親切で良い方でした。
