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

Swim with Dolphins is Real!!!

Reviewed by: Ms. Ems

It was my day off and kids were at school so I figured, why not do a "me" just for a day! I invited my friend to join me since she happened to have the same day off. We booked the Morning Cruise at 7:00am since the water is usually warmer and calmer, and we decided to drive ourselves to the harbor. What's good is that there is a restaurant at the harbor where you can buy coffee or breakfast before heading out.

Upon check-in, we were already given our snorkeling equipments, and an option to rent their body suits, which we rented for $10 each. They asked us to sign the liability waiver, and I think' it's cool that they even take your instagram information so they can tag you photos (if you're in it) that they upload at the end of the tour.

The staff and crew are very funny and entertaining! As we were heading out to the ocean, they peformed Polynesian dancing, and playing ukulele. They also performed traditional Hawaiian prayer for our safety. As we were getting closer, we could already see the pod of dolphins, af the signal from the crew members, we jumped to the water and started to swim with these beautiful dolphins!!! I never swam with dolphins in the open water before and this was really exciting!! There were lootsss of them!!

We hopped back on to the boat for our next snorkeling location and that before jumping in the water again, we were given some activity options to take such as stand-up paddle boarding, canoe ride, water slide, and many more!! It was just an awesome experience!!
Their lunch burgers were delicious too which were served as we were headed back to the harbor. It was long day but it was all worth it!!

Oh by the way, make sure to take seasickness pills if you get nauseous easily!

I was able to see dolphins! イルカ見れました！

Reviewed by: トラベル子

When I put my face in the sea, I was able to see several dolphins swimming. It felt mysterious, and I was moved by the sight of the blue sea and the dolphins swimming.

In May, the sea was a bit cold, so I was glad I rented a wetsuit (for a fee). During our time, there were many guests from other countries, and the staff were very lively, making it a fun time on the boat. I could especially feel the staff's attitude of wanting the guests to enjoy themselves. It was a wonderful time.

海に顔をつけると、泳ぐイルカを何頭か見ることができました。
見たときは不思議な感覚になり、青い海と泳ぐイルカの姿に感動しました。

５月で海は少し冷たかったので、ウェットスーツ(有料)を借りて正解だったなと思いました。
わたしたちの時は他の国のお客さんが多く、スタッフさん含めとてもノリがよく船の上でも楽しい時間を過ごすことが出来ました。
特にスタッフさんたちの「お客さんに楽しんでもらいたい」という姿勢が伝わってきました。楽しい時間でした。

Reviewed by: pazu

I signed up for the 11 AM start. They came to pick me up around 9 AM in Waikiki. It was reassuring to have a Japanese staff member with us from pick-up to drop-off. The weather wasn't great, but we encountered a sea turtle right at the start. As soon as we began snorkeling, we were able to see a pod of dolphins. It felt like we were floating on the surface while watching the dolphins swim below us.

After about 30 minutes, we got back on the boat and enjoyed hamburgers while watching the staff perform hula. I didn't have high expectations for lunch, so it was neither good nor bad. Although it was mentioned that there would be SUP and a slide, there were very few of them, so we couldn't enjoy them much.

The staff were all young and seemed to be having fun joking around the whole time.

I signed up to receive photos on a USB for $55. There were quite a few photos, but only a few of them had us looking decent. Most were pictures of strangers who were on the same boat. I wasn't sure what to do with those. Additionally, there were many photos of dolphins and sea turtles that definitely weren't from today, which was disappointing. I didn't need those kinds of photos.

The day began with an exciting morning call, and while rubbing my sleepy eyes, I listened to the safety instructions and equipment explanations in the stylish bus, which really got my spirits up. Above all, the high energy of the staff was infectious. With their thoughtful attention to detail and unique personalities, the atmosphere on the boat felt like a party, and it was so much fun.

At the dolphin point, I was thrilled to see dolphins swimming slowly right beneath me. At another spot, the water was so clear it felt like I was not even underwater, and I had wonderful memories swimming with sea turtles and tropical fish, losing track of time. I also enjoyed the slide, trampoline, and hula lessons, and I definitely want to participate again next time.

It's a tour that interacts with nature, but there’s so much more to enjoy beyond just the dolphins, so I highly recommend it.

*To those participating: Depending on the season, I recommend renting a wetsuit. My wife loved the logo and ended up buying it.*

From the hostess at the Blue Tent to the boat crew - everyone made the experience enjoyable. Plenty of fish and turtles. Quality snorkeling gear. And finished with a nice relaxing sail around Diamond Head. A definite do again on our next trip. Since we stayed at the Hall Koa, access was a quick walk down the beach.

Glad I went

Reviewed by: ATJ

This tour was really awesome! The staff was extremely helpful, courteous and knowledgeable. They had so many children on the tour I was on and they handled everything very safely and professionally. This tour doesn't guarantee dolphin sightings but they found them very quickly and easily and were very diligent to be sure everyone had a chance to see them. The Dolphins were in groups of 3-5 and I saw them at least 5 times. It was excellent.
The reef they brought us to was awesome! tons of fish and I saw at least 4 turtles.
I would highly recommend this tour. There are many that just to dolphin sightings, not swimming. Or they only allow 2-4 people in at once so youre not in the water the whole time, but they took everyone at once and kept a tight knit group and had recommendations on how to not scare the dolphins away. It was great. I didn't do any of the water sports because the snorkeling was so good but others looked to be having fun.
Great staff!
Great dolphins!
Great snorkel spot!
Great entertainment on the way back!
Very safe but also flexible.
Check it out for sure. Best day in Hawaii.

There was a morning call, and there was a guide who spoke Japanese, so I felt at ease. The staff were all fun people, and the dancing was great. It was a wonderful experience. I got to see dolphins and swim with tropical fish. Since it was my first time snorkeling, I think I could have enjoyed it even more if I had been more accustomed to it. To make it a good memory, taking motion sickness medication is essential. There were a few people who got sick and looked like they were struggling.

Got a little woozy after being out on the ocean, and they immediately recognized it (without me having to say anything!) and offered me a dab of lavendar oil behind my ears/under my nose that cleared it right up.

The tour was enjoyable for all the members. We got to see and swim with dolphins.

The snorkeling afterward was also very good. Since it can be cold, it's definitely better to borrow a wetsuit at the beginning.

I was able to see both dolphins and sea turtles! イルカにもウミガメにも会えました！

Reviewed by: ひでとも

My long-awaited first trip to Hawaii! I went in mid-April. The day before was unfortunately rainy, so I was worried about rain on the day of my trip, but fortunately, the weather held up until the end. I was able to see a pod of dolphins, sea turtles swimming along the ocean floor, and schools of small fish, which made for an incredibly moving experience in the crystal-clear waters.

As for advice for those who will be participating, I tend to handle the cold well, but if you are sensitive to cold, be sure to bring a larger towel and a jacket, as it can get chilly, especially with the wind while moving on the boat! Also, since mid-April is the end of the rainy season, I was able to take time off work when things were relatively calm to go to Hawaii. If I have the chance again, I would definitely like to go during the dry season next time.

念願の初ハワイ！
4月中旬に行きました。前日があいにく雨模様だったので、当日雨が降るのが心配でしたが、幸い天気も最後まで崩れる事なく、予定通り？イルカの群れにも海底を泳ぐウミガメにも小さい魚の群れにも会う事ができて透き通るようなきれいな海中もともなって感動の体験でした。
これから参加される方へのアドバイス？ですが、私は寒さには強い方なのですが、寒さに弱い方は、船で移動中は特に風が吹くと寒いので、大きめのタオルとジャケットなど寒さ対策は忘れないように！
あと4月中旬は雨季の終わりという事で、今回も仕事が比較的落ち着いた時にお休みをもらってハワイに行く事ができましたが、もし又機会があれば、今度は是非、乾季に行きたいと思っています。

In the morning, when we were picked up, there was a group of Japanese people. I was worried because they couldn't speak English, but the staff kindly explained everything in Japanese, which was a relief. Even the older couple nearing their sixties were fine.

あまり良くもなく、あまり悪くもない。 Not so good, not so bad.

Reviewed by: トラベラー

I was able to see dolphins. The crew on board, including the captain, skillfully found a pod of dolphins and guided us into the water. I thought they would be further out at sea, but I was surprised to find them closer to the shore. While in the water, wearing snorkeling goggles, we were signaled to "look down!" However, rather than looking straight down, we needed to look ahead at a shallow distance to see the dolphins. During that time, some people in our group couldn't see anything and the dolphins swam away without them getting a glimpse.

While it says "you can swim with dolphins," it seems that the dolphins do not come close to you. The experience felt more like watching a pod of dolphins from the water. If you want to swim with them, I think you would have a more enjoyable time at a seaside park. Additionally, repeatedly getting in and out of the water can be a bit tough for elderly people and small children, especially since the boat isn't very large.

After the dolphin experience, we moved to another location for snorkeling. We spent about 40-50 minutes there. The crew worked hard to provide us with slides and kayaks, and we were able to see sea turtles.

Lastly, I won’t mention names, but one Japanese female crew member who was with us from the pickup was quite disappointing. She was in training, and perhaps it was her first day, as she kept saying things like "I don’t know how to say in Japanese!" and "It's super amazing!"—phrases that are not commonly used in Japanese customer service. Although she played a video with safety instructions, her conversations with senior crew members and the cameraman about her dog and husband (some of which were quite vulgar, mixing Japanese and English) were distracting, making it hard to hear the video. I also wondered about the senior male crew member who didn’t intervene.

I would have preferred if such conversations were held after the tour. It seems they assumed that the Japanese participants wouldn’t understand English, but among those who attended that day, we exchanged glances, thinking, "That person is saying something incredible..." Since most of the participants were Japanese, I wished they had shown a bit more consideration.

イルカは見る事ができました。
船長さん含む船上クルーの皆さんは、慣れた様子でイルカの群れを見つけ、私達を海に入れてリードしてくれました。沖の方にいるのかと思っていましたが、意外に沿岸部にいて驚きでした。海の中では、シュノーケルのゴーグルを付けていて、look down ! 下見て！の合図で下を見るのですが、真下というよりは、前方で、浅く遠くを見ないとイルカは見えません。そうしている間に何も見えずイルカが去ってしまい、全く見られなかった人達も同じグループには数人いました。
”イルカと一緒に泳げる”とありますが、イルカは決して寄って来てくれるわけではないようです。感覚としては、海の中からイルカの群れを見る...という感じでしょうか。一緒に泳ぐならシーサイドパークの方が確実に楽しめるかと思いました。あと何度も海に入る、船に戻るを繰り返し、船も大きいわけではないので、高齢の方や小さい子供は少し辛いかもしれません。

イルカが終わったら、次は場所を移動してシュノーケリングをします。ここで40-50分過ごしました。滑り台やカヤックを出してくださり、ウミガメを見たりとクルーの皆さんはとても頑張ってくださいました。

最後に、お名前は控えますが送迎から一緒の日本人女性クルーが、とても残念な感じでした。
研修中との事でしたが、たぶんその日が初日だったのでしょうか、説明中は、I don’t know how to say in Japanese ! や、超すごいんでぇ！などとあまり日本人の接客では使わない言葉を連発し、「注意事項のビデオを流すので、よく見てください」と流したものの狭い車内の中で、彼女は先輩クルーやカメラマンに、ご自身の犬や旦那様(一部かなり下品な内容を日本語と英語を混ぜて話されていて不快極まりないです)の話、今日これ終わったらうちに遊びに来ない？などと、積極的に話しかけ、その声が邪魔になりビデオの音声なんて聞こえませんでした。それを注意しない先輩男性クルーもどうなのか...。
そういうお話は業務中でなく、終わっかてからしていただきたかったです。ツアーに参加する日本人は全く英語がわからないと思われているのでしょうが、その日に参加した人達の中で、「あの人、すごい事話してるね...」と顔を見合わせていましたよ。日本人参加者がほとんどのツアーなのですから、もう少し配慮をしていただきたかったです。

Of course, we were thrilled to see dolphins and honu ❤️ My husband jumped into the sea and within five minutes, he cramped up in both legs and had to signal for help, and the staff came to his rescue. They were lifesavers. The weather was perfect, but the seawater was a bit cold, and since the bus had air conditioning on the way to and from the site, I think a jacket is necessary. For lunch, snacks like pineapple and hamburgers were provided, but if you're a big eater, I recommend bringing some light snacks besides bananas. I'm really glad I participated.

Hawaii OPを探して あちこちの口コミを見て読んでVELTRAさんに決めました。予約の段階から気持ちの良い対応をして頂き VELTRAさんに決めて良かったと感じました。
朝の集合かなり早かったですがモーニングコールもしてもらい スタッフさんの未優ちゃんが とても気持ち良く 1日を案内してくれました。
肝心なツアーですが スタッフの皆さん とてもハワイアンなおもてなしで 最高でした。勿論 イルカ・ホヌも見れて感激❤️ 夫が海へ飛び込み5分で両脚がツリ すぐにリタイアサインを送り スタッフさんに助けてもらいました。命の恩人です お天気は最高に良かったですが 海水少し冷たく行き帰りのバスは冷房が効いているので上着は必要だと思います。ランチにスナック パイナップル ハンバーガーが出ますが大食いな方はバナナ以外の軽食持参した方がよろしいかと…。参加して良かったです。

2.5-Hour Spirit of Aloha Waikiki Turtle Snorkel Tour with Cocktails from Hilton

Morning snorkel cruise from the Hilton Pier

Reviewed by: Howard

We took the Lunch cruise from the Hilton Pier on Waikiki beach to see the sea turtles, it was a great time to go out onto the water. Nice short ride out to the turtle area. The crew was fantastic, very informative and friendly. Gave great instructions on how to see the turtles and one of the crew members was in the water for assistance and to answer questions. After viewing the turtles they put the sail up and we sailed a little further out to sea and that was fun and exciting. Very nice lunch buffet and a few Mai Tais also made it a great time. Clean boat, great crew, nice lunch and got to swim with the Turtles! Will definitely do this cruise again when back on Waikiki.
