All-Inclusive Kailua Beach Day Experience - Lunch, Snorkel, Bike & Gear Rental

I am going on 4 years doing the activity.

Reviewed by: -PAUL-

I do this activity every time i come to Oahu. Next time i come in, i will do this activity twice. One day i will do my normal thing using the bicycle to the secluded area i found my first year there and relax. Unfortunately this year was a bit overcast, which i blame on the volcanic disruptions from the big island. Second day i want to use a kayak to the Mokulua islands. Staff and service is great!

I visited Kailua, Lanikai Beach, and Kailua Town! Renting a bike costs an additional $10, but I think it's worth it to get around in a limited amount of time! The Japanese staff kindly shared information about the town, suggesting that takeout from Boots & Kimo's is better and telling me about shops that only locals know, which helped me navigate efficiently. Also, I was happy that lunch was included ❤︎ The recommended pizza was really delicious! If I have the chance to go again, I would definitely participate once more!

They will help you find wild dolphins. 野生のイルカを探してくれる

Reviewed by: 38915

I participated on a sunny day in February. The staff were cheerful and bright, making it a fun experience. We were able to see wild dolphins. However, we didn't see as many as we had hoped from the photos, and the time we spent watching them was brief. This can depend on the weather and luck. On the day we participated, it was quite windy and the waves were high, which made it cold and required some stamina. Some participants experienced seasickness.

They put a lot of effort into searching for dolphins. It took a while to find them, and we ran out of time for snorkeling, but we did see whales as well.

Since our belongings got wet from the high waves, I recommend protecting anything you don't want to get wet with sturdy plastic. Also, due to the dolphin search and road congestion, the return time can be a bit delayed, so it's better not to schedule anything too tight after the tour.

2月の晴れた日に参加しました。スタッフのみなさんは笑顔で明るく楽しかったです。野生のイルカが見られました。写真で期待していたほどは見られず、見た時間は少しでした。これについては天候や運もあります。参加した日は風が強く、波も高かったので寒くて体力もいりました。参加者の中には船酔いする人もいました。
イルカ探しを一生懸命してくれます。イルカ探しに時間がかかり、時間切れでシュノーケリングができなくなりましたが、クジラも見られました。
高波で荷物が濡れたので、濡らしたくないものはしっかりビニールで防ぐことを勧めます。
イルカ探しや道路混雑で帰りの時間が少し遅くなることもあるので、ツアー後の予定をギリギリに入れない方が良いです。

Swimming with turtles

We had the best adventure. After seeing so many other cruises going out looking crowded and rushed we were a bit concerned.
Turned up at 8.30, check in process easy and efficient =)
Great weather, even better staff.
And best of all plenty of space for all on the catamaran. We were blessed with a small group.
Short cruise out and we were already spotting turtles.
All our equipment checked, help given if needed and off we went. 2 hours of watching dozens of green sea turtles in their natural environment. AMAZING!!
having Zac in the water with his trusty surf board gave everyone a great sense of ease.
On our tour was a gentleman who didn't feel to sure in the water but the boys went out of their way to get him an extra floatation buoy and stayed close til he felt more comfortable.
I would recommend Ruski (?) and Zac and the Mana Kai tour to anyone who asked.

I got to see dolphins, turtles, and whales! イルカとカメとクジラに会えた！

Reviewed by: PiPi

I participated in mid-February. What I was really glad to have were the wetsuit, a large plastic bag for my belongings, and an underwater camera.

It was a cool day, and I was worried about the cold, so I rented a wetsuit for $10. Sitting in the shade of the boat was really cold, so it was definitely the right decision to rent it. My belongings were stored under the seat, but of course, waves came into the boat. Since clothes and bags got wet, it was also a good idea to bring a large plastic bag. I bought an underwater camera for this trip, and I was really satisfied that I could capture great photos and videos of the dolphins!

The Japanese guide was adorable, and the local crew members were all very friendly, making it a really fun tour! At first, we didn't encounter any dolphins and only saw whales, but in the end, we came across a pod of dolphins and were able to swim with them! I definitely want to participate again next time.

2月中旬の参加です。あってよかったなと思ったのは、ウェットスーツと、荷物を入れる大きなビニール袋と、水中カメラでした。

その日は涼しく、寒さが心配のためウェットスーツを$10で借りました。船の日陰のとこに座っていたら、ほんとに寒くて借りて正解でした。また荷物は座席の下に入れますが、もちろん船に波が入ってきます。洋服とかバッグとか濡れるので、大きなビニール袋も持って行って正解でした。またこの旅行のために水中カメラを購入しましたが、バッチリとイルカの姿を写真でも動画でも撮れたのが自分的には満足でした！

日本人のガイドさんは可愛い方で、また乗組員の現地の方もノリがいい方々ばかりで、ほんとに楽しいツアーでした！
最初はなかなかイルカに出会えず、クジラばかり目撃してましたが、最後にはイルカの群れに出会い、一緒に泳げました！

It exceeded my expectations! 期待以上でした！

Reviewed by: みちゅまま

I was worried because the day before was a cold, rainy day during the rainy season, but on the day of the trip, it was clear skies! The bus driver who picked us up was friendly, which lifted our spirits. We took off our beach sandals and boarded the boat barefoot. My son was worried about seasickness, but we arrived at the sandbar before he could feel sick (laughs). Even in shallow areas, the water was only up to our knees, and there was no beach, but the sunlit sea sparkled beautifully. We were able to see turtles while snorkeling as well.

After that, we had a great time playing with kayaks and stand-up paddleboards. Renting a kayak at the hotel costs several thousand yen, so I think this was a good deal.

I actually didn't have high expectations for the lunch buffet, but it was incredibly delicious. The bone-in short ribs and chicken were tender, and putting chili beans on rice was exquisite. There were also desserts and sweets, and whenever they ran low, they quickly refilled them, so I ended up going back for seconds!

During the meal, pufferfish and turtles came around the boat, and we were able to take pictures with them. The guides on the boat were very friendly and attentive, making the experience enjoyable.

On the way back, the bus had fluffy towels on the seats, making for a comfortable return. Thank you very much!

雨季の参加で、前日が寒い雨の日だったので、心配していたのですが、当日は快晴！

そのあとも、カヤックやサップで遊んだり楽しい時間を過ごしました。ホテルでカヤックを借りるだけでも何千円もするので、お得だと思います。
実はあまり期待していなかったランチバイキングだったのですが、とーっても美味しかった。骨つきカルビも鶏肉も柔らかくて、ご飯にチリビーンズをかけて食べるのは絶品でした。デザートもスイーツもあり、少なくなるとすぐに足してくれてお代わりして食べてしまいました！
食事の時にも船の周りにふぐ？や亀がやってきて、一緒に写真も撮れました。

Sandbar サンドバー

Reviewed by: すずき

First, we had some free time at the sandbar. We took pictures together, and the staff took photos with a GoPro. It seems we can get those photos from the website about a week later. After that, we went snorkeling to see fish and sea turtles. However, the water was quite murky, so there weren't many fish, and the turtles were only visible from a distance.

Afterward, we had lunch. There was meat, fruit, and snacks, along with warm tomato soup and coffee to help us warm up after being in the cold sea.

Then we had more free time, where we played with the paddleboards, floats, and beach volleyball. At the end, a turtle came close to the shallow water near the boat, allowing us to see it up close. It was a lot of fun!

まずはサンドバーで自由に過ごす時間がありました。みんなで写真を撮ったり、スタッフの方がゴープロで撮影してくれました。1週間後くらいにホームページからその写真ももらえるらしいです。そのあとは、シュノーケルで魚やウミガメを見ました。ただ、海が結構濁っていて、魚も少なく、ウミガメもぼんやり見えるくらいでした。
そのあとは昼食です。肉やフルーツ、お菓子もあって海で冷えた体にあったまるトマトスープやコーヒーなどもありました。
そのあとはまた自由時間で、ザップやうきわ、ビーチバレーをして遊びました。最後は船の近くの浅瀬までカメが寄ってきてくれて触れるような距離で見ることができました。とても楽しかったです！

This trip became my best memory. この旅で1番の最高の思い出になりました

Reviewed by: Bee

I participated in the Dolphin University about five years ago and had such a great time that this time I decided to join Dolphin Junior High. Last time, I joined in August, so it wasn't too cold, but this time, since I participated in February, it was chilly in Hawaii during the mornings and evenings, and honestly, the water was quite cold.

Since we spent a long time on the boat, with the wind blowing, I strongly recommend dressing warmly. Last time, I was able to see dolphins, but only from a distance, and there were few of them, so we moved by boat and dove about three times just to catch a glimpse of them. This time, I was lucky enough to swim with the dolphins for a long time after just one dive.

We were very close to them, and thanks to the dolphins coming back multiple times, we were able to see them continuously. It was truly moving to swim with the dolphins at a distance where I felt I could reach out and touch them. The weather was also great, and the water was so clear that I was able to see many fish and baby sea turtles while snorkeling.

The photographer Mike was great at creating a fun atmosphere and took lots of pictures while making everyone laugh. I realized that the vibe of the tour and how well the participants are engaged is really important. There were about 800 photos in total, and it would cost around $50 for the data, but since there were about 30-40 tour guests, the photos with us in them were just a small part, and since everyone was wearing wetsuits and goggles, it was hard to tell who was who (laughs).

Of course, there were many beautiful underwater photos, but I thought $50 was a bit steep, so I decided not to purchase them. I think if the price were a bit more reasonable, more participants would buy them. Also, I thought last time that the cleanliness of the portable toilets at the port was unbearable... It takes about one to one and a half hours to return to Waikiki after that, so we have no choice but to use the port facilities. However, for Japanese people, that toilet is quite a painful experience...

It would be helpful if we could at least be driven to a nearby restroom. This is a tour I definitely want to participate in again when I go to Hawaii next time, so I hope you will consider it. The person who joined me had never been to Hawaii before, and when I asked him what his best memory from this trip was, he immediately replied, "Dolphin Junior High!!!" (laughs) It truly became a wonderful memory. Thank you very much.

イルカ大学に5年ほど前に参加して、とても楽しかったので今回はイルカ中学に参加することにしました。
前回は8月に参加したため、そこまで寒くはなかったですが、今回は2月参加のため朝晩は冷えるハワイで、増してや海の中は正直かなり寒かったです。
船に乗って長時間移動するので、風も吹きますし、暖かい格好で行くことを強くオススメします。
前回もイルカを見ることができたのですが、遠目でしかみれなかったり、イルカの数も少なかったので3回ほど船で移動してダイブして、なんとかイルカを見れた！という感じでした。
今回はついていたのか、1回のダイブだけでずーーーっとイルカ達と泳ぐことが出来ました。
距離もとても近かったですし、イルカ達が何度も戻ってきてくれたおかげでひっきりなしに会えました。
手を伸ばせば届きそうな距離でイルカ達と泳げて本当に感動しました。
天気もとても良く、海底まで透き通って見えていたのでシュノーケリングもたくさんの魚達や赤ちゃんウミガメにも会うことが出来ました。
カメラマンのマイクも盛り上げ上手でたくさん写真を撮ってはみんなを笑わせてくれますし、このツアーはやっぱり雰囲気というか、どれだけ参加者を盛り上げられるかが大事なんだなと感じました。
写真は全部で800枚程度あり、データで50ドル程かかるとのことでしたが、30-40人ほどのツアー客がいるので自分達が写っている写真はほんの一部ですし、みんなウェットスーツとゴーグルをしているため誰が誰だかわかりません(笑)
もちろん写真は水中のものなど素敵なものが多かったですが50ドルは高いなと思い購入は諦めました。
もう少し求めやすい価格にすれば多くの参加者が購入するのでは？と思いました。
あと前回も思ったのですが、港での仮設トイレ(ぼっとん)の汚さは耐えられないレベルです…その後ワイキキまで戻るのに1時間から1時間半くらい？はかかるので港でするしかないのです。
ただ、日本人にはあれはなかなかの苦痛なトイレです…。
せめて、近くのトイレまで車で移動して頂けると助かります。
次回もハワイに行ったら絶対に参加したいツアーなのでご検討よろしくお願いします^^;
一緒に参加した彼は人生初ハワイでしたが、この旅で1番の思い出は？と聞くと、イルカ中学！！！と即答してました(笑)
本当に素敵な思い出になりました。
ありがとうございました。

Hanauma Bay Self-Guided Snorkel Tour & Gear Rental with Hotel Transportation

Reliable transportation

Reviewed by: Mike

Second time I have used this tour to get to and from Hanauma Bay. Especially a great value if you already have your own snorkeling equipment as you can take the price down a few dollars without equipment rental.

Go first thing in the morning and be ready to get into the water by 8am or earlier. That way you can snorkel without the crowds until the circus arrives around 10am. By then I had already gotten 2 full hours of relatively unspoiled pics of all that I wanted to take and enjoyed lounging on the beach until the pickup time.

Fun trip!

Reviewed by: Judy

Trip was really fun. I was afraid of getting sea sick but the water was calm. I’ve been on many snorkel trips in Hawaii and Cabo San Lucas that take you out on a boat for 5 hours or so and provide lunch. Those I felt were way too long and you lose half the day. This one was only about 2.5 hours in the morning which was perfect. We had our 10 year old son with us and his attention span is short and he tires out after 30 minutes of snorkeling. Best part was we got on and off the boat at Waikiki Beach and did not have to drive to a harbor so we saved another hour or so. We saw lots of turtles right away and our son loved snorkeling with the turtles even though he was not a good swimmer. They provide life vests to everyone. I highly recommend going on this tour.

However, it happened to be a very cold day, so I gave it one star less. The tour itself was excellent.

The weather wasn't perfectly clear, but the sea was beautiful. I thought I had chosen a day with low water levels for the sandbar by researching in advance, but there was still water up to my knees. However, I was satisfied because I was able to see sea turtles while snorkeling. The guide was also great, getting everyone excited and actively taking photos, which was a nice service. The only point for improvement would be that since there were quite a few people on the tour, it took some time to gather everyone, and there were moments when we bumped into each other while snorkeling.

天気は快晴ではありませんでしたが、海は綺麗でした。肝心のサンドバーは事前に調べて水位が低い日を選んだつもりですが、膝下くらいまで水があったもののシュノーケリングでウミガメを見ることができ満足です。ガイドさんも盛り上げてくれ写真を積極的にとってくれるなどサービスがよかっったです。唯一改善点としては、ツアー人数がそれなりに多いので集合に時間がかかったりシュノーケリングの時にぶつかったりしたことでしょうか。

We were blessed with good weather, but for a while after setting sail, there were no signs of dolphins, and I started to lose hope, thinking it was just nature. Then, during our last chance, we encountered a large pod of about 60 dolphins! We were able to swim quite close to them and even witnessed them jumping, which was incredibly exciting.

On our way back, we had another amazing encounter with a mother whale and her calf at a surprisingly close distance! I was moved by the adorable sight of the baby whale mimicking its mother by flapping its tail. At the sea turtle spot, I was also thrilled to swim alongside a quite large sea turtle.

Even if you're not a strong swimmer, the instructors were very attentive, making for a safe and enjoyable experience!

大満足で帰り途中、かなり近めの距離でクジラの親子に遭遇！赤ちゃんクジラが親を真似て尻尾をパタパタする可愛らしい姿に感激。ウミガメスポットでもかなり大きなウミガメと一緒に泳げ大満足でした。

泳ぎが苦手でもインストラクターの皆さんがしっかりとアテンドしてくれ、安心＆楽しい時間でした！

ありがとうございました^ ^

I was able to see sea turtles so many times that I got tired of it! 見飽きるほど何回もウミガメが見れました！

Reviewed by: wattanwattan

There is a dock about an hour from the hotel by shuttle bus, where we take a boat to the sandbar.

The area where the boat arrives at the sandbar was about waist-deep, but in some places, it was shallow enough to reach just below the knees.

While the sand did not emerge above the water's surface, the view was absolutely stunning! It felt surreal to walk in the middle of the ocean.

As soon as we arrived, we were able to see sea turtles swimming near the anchored boats, and during snorkeling, we saw sea turtles resting on the coral and many fish.

The staff spoke Japanese and made the experience very enjoyable.

I’m really glad I participated in the tour.

One thing to note is that this activity is weather-dependent. I participated in February, which is not only the rainy season but also when the water can feel cold. If it’s not sunny, the view may not be as breathtaking. Additionally, the UV rays are strong.

I recommend applying sunscreen, wearing a rash guard, bringing a slightly larger towel to dry off after getting out of the boat, and bringing something like a hoodie to wear.

送迎バスでホテルから1時間ほどのところに船着き場があり、船でサンドバーに向かいます。

サンドバーは、船が到着する場所は腰ぐらいの深さでしたが、場所によっては膝下ぐらいまでになるところもあります。

砂が水面から顔を出すことはありませんでしたが、大絶景！です。
海の真ん中を歩く非日常感。

停泊している船の近くを泳ぐウミガメを到着してすぐに見ることができ、シュノーケリングでは海底のサンゴの上で休んでいるウミガメとたくさんの魚を見ることができました。

スタッフさんは日本語で盛上げてくれるのでとても楽しい時間が過ごせました。

ツアーに参加して本当に良かったです。

注意点としては、天候に左右されるアクティビティであることです。
2月に参加していますが、この時期は雨季であるばかりでなく、海に入ると寒く感じます。
晴れていない時は大絶景とまではいかないかもしれません。
そして、紫外線は強いです。

日焼け止めを塗り、ラッシュガードを着用することと、船から上がったら体をしっかり拭くことができるように少し大きめのタオルを用意すること、パーカー等の羽織る物を持参することをおすすめします。

イルカ大学　イルカウォッチング＆シュノーケリングクルーズ　イルカと泳ぐプランも！マリンアクティビティも充実＜ランチ付き／日本語／ワイキキ＆コオリナ送迎可＞

I encountered a large pod of dolphins! イルカの大群に逢えました！

Reviewed by: くるころるんるん

The tour took place in Hawaii under unusually low and rough weather conditions. Right after departure, many people started feeling seasick, but it turned out to be a lucky day, as we encountered a large pod of dolphins that swam leisurely beside us and even surfaced, which the crew described as a miracle. During snorkeling after the dolphins, we also had the rare chance to see a ray.

The weather changed rapidly, with rain, sunshine, and clouds, but thanks to that, we were able to see a double rainbow. The strong winds made it difficult to stop shivering on the boat. There was no place to change out of wet swimsuits, so we had to dry off with towels and put on a jacket while still wet. Those who are not confident in the cold should be cautious on cloudy days. For those worried about seasickness, I recommend starting with a shorter dolphin tour.

ハワイでは滅多にない気温が低く荒れ気味の天候の元でのツアーでした。出航直後から船酔いする人続出でしたが、イルカの大群に出会えた上、イルカ達がずっと私達のそばを悠々と泳いだり、水面に浮かび上がって来たりすらクルー曰く奇跡のようなラッキーデーでした。イルカの後の亀とシュノーケリングの際も珍しくエイに出会えたりしました。
途中雨が降り、晴れ間が出たり曇ったりと目まぐるしく天気が変わりましたがお陰でダブルレインボーまで見られました。
風が強くて船上で体の震えが止まらず辛かったです。濡れた水着を着替える場所は無いのでタオルで拭いて濡れたまま上に上着を羽織るしかありません。寒さに自信のない人は曇りの日は要注意です。船酔いの心配な人はまずは時間の短いイルカ中学に入学する事をお勧めします。

I was able to meet a dolphin. イルカに会えました

Reviewed by: ４人家族

I was happy to fulfill my long-time dream of swimming with dolphins. I was able to see them up close. It was cold, but the wetsuit I borrowed was helpful. If there's one thing I want to mention, it's that since I rented a car, I met at the designated location, but the meeting point, the "public restroom," was quite hard to find. It was still dark at the meeting time, and other participants' bus was delayed, which made me quite anxious, wondering if I was at the wrong meeting point. In the end, I found out by asking someone from another tour company. I had asked during the confirmation call the day before, "Will I be able to find the restroom easily?" but the response was vague.

長年の夢（？）だった、イルカと泳ぐことができて嬉しかったです。しっかり見ることができました。寒かったのですが、お借りしたウエットスーツが役にたちました。一つだけ言っておきたいことがあるとしたら・・レンタカーのため、現地集合にしたのですが、集合場所の「公衆トイレ」がかなり分かりづらかったです。集合時間はまだ暗かったし、他の参加者のバスが遅れてきて、集合場所が違うのではないかと、かなり不安な気持ちになりました。最終的に、他のツアー会社さんの方にお聞きして判明しました。前日の参加確認の電話で「トイレってすぐに分かりますかね？」と聞いておきましたがその辺のお返事も曖昧でした。

It became my number one memory and lesson from my trip to Hawaii! ハワイ旅行での1番の思い出と学びになりました！

Reviewed by: おまき

I participated in February, which is winter and the rainy season in Hawaii. Although the wind felt a bit chilly, the weather was pleasant and enjoyable. Our shuttle bus driver, Pete, had a friendly and relaxing talk in Japanese that made the ride to the port fun from the start.

My partner, who has had ear surgery in the past, was a bit scared of the water, but the supportive staff and the variety of activities helped ease those worries. They explained that the boat would sway due to the wind, and they sold anti-nausea products for those who didn't bring medication or couldn't take it. We purchased some, and they worked very well for us. On our return flight, the plane was quite bumpy, and many people felt nauseous, but thanks to the anti-nausea products we bought, we were fine. It turned out to be a surprisingly good purchase (it's a good idea to bring cash in dollars if you plan to buy).

Once on the boat, our Japanese guide, Izumi, began her explanation. Izumi's explanations were excellent, clearly outlining what to do and what not to do, which was very impressive. We were excited to be there, but she emphasized the importance of following proper etiquette, not putting ourselves in danger, and not enduring discomfort if we felt unwell. She also mentioned that touching sea turtles incurs a fine of 350,000 yen. It was truly educational, as she provided explanations not found in the guidebook about protecting the environment for future visits.

The captain also tried to keep the boat steady and moved slowly. After about 20 minutes on the boat, we arrived at the planned beach location. Unfortunately, it wasn't a beach, but the shallow waters were calm and very beautiful.

We chose not to participate in snorkeling and instead enjoyed activities on the sandy bottom. The staff was engaging and made it easy to communicate any needs or issues.

Moreover, two sea turtles came close to us!

A cool foreign staff member took photos for us.

We enjoyed a delicious buffet lunch on the boat, which was filling and a lot of fun!

From start to finish, it was an exciting and enjoyable experience! Thank you to all the staff.

Thank you, Hawaii! I want to participate again.

ハワイでは真冬で雨季の2月に参加しました。
やや風が冷たく感じましたが、それも気持ちよく感じるような良いお天気でした。
お迎えバスのピートさんのトークは緊張をほぐしてくれるフレンドリーな日本語トークで朝から楽しく港まで到着しました。
過去に耳鼻の手術を受けている相方さんは、水に潜れなくはないのですが、少々水が怖いので楽しめるか心配だったのですが、そんな心配を吹き飛ばしてくれるスタッフの皆さんのサポーティプな対応と、アクティビティの豊富さでした。
風があるので船が揺れるから船酔いや、波酔いの説明があり、薬を持ってこなかった人や飲めない人用に酔い止めグッズを販売してくれてます。私たちは購入しました。
私たちにはとても効果がありこの日の酔い止め効果も抜群でしたが、帰国の飛行機がかなり揺れて酔ってる人が多かったのですが、購入した酔い止めグッズを使用して酔わずに済みました。思わぬ良い買い物までできました。(購入するなら現金ドルを持って行くといいですよ)

船に乗ると日本人ガイドのIzumiさんの説明が始まります。Izumiさんの説明が秀逸でしっかりと良いこと、ダメなことをわかりやすく教えてくれて感動ものです。
私たちは楽しみにここに来ていること。
でも、楽しむためにはしっかりとマナーを守り、自分を危険に晒さないことはもちろん、具合悪かったら我慢しないことや、海ガメに触ると罰金35万円かかることなど。また次も気持ちよく参加ように環境を守る。ことのガイドブックには載っていない説明など本当に勉強になりました。

キャプテンもできるだけ揺れないようにゆっくりと船を走らせてくれました。船に乗ること20分くらいでビーチ予定の場所に到着。
残念ながらビーチにはなってませんでしたが、浅瀬で波も穏やかなのでとっても綺麗でした。

シュノーケリングには参加せず砂地でアクティビティを楽しむ方を選びました。
スタッフのみなさんが楽しくもりあげてくれて、いつでも必要なものや困りごとを伝えられる状態になってます。

しかも、海ガメさんたちが2匹も寄ってきてくれました。

写真もスタッフの外国人のカッコいいお兄さんが撮ってくれました。

船上で食べるブッフェランチもお腹いっぱい美味しく食べて、最高に楽しかったです！

最初から最後までずっと楽しくワクワクでした！
スタッフのみなさんありがとうございました。

ありがとう、ハワイ！
また参加したいです。

It was cold, but beautiful! I think I could have enjoyed it even more if it were summer. I'm very satisfied because I got to see a sea turtle.

2.5-Hour Turtle Snorkel Sail Tour from Waikiki Beach - Cold Brew Coffee, Snacks & One Drink Included

Ok...but not the best experience.

Reviewed by: Hawaii visitor

The boat staff were very nice, but the weather before this activity wasn’t ideal, so that is part of why this review isn’t stellar. Also, the tour said that snorkelling equipment including fins was provided. Fins were not. They are actually very helpful for staying buyouant, especially in rougher waters like we had, so we were counting on them. The area was VERY busy, with many tour groups out there, so it wasn’t a very pleasant snorkelling experience - as you kept getting kicked in the face. I wouldn’t recommend this - find a nice spot and go on your own.
