Waikiki Guided Beach Snorkeling Tour for Beginners with FREE Photos & Videos

Amazing First Time Snorkeling Experience

Reviewed by: Nishant

Ricki was very patient and helpful in making our (my wife & my) first time snorkeling experience so good. My wife didn't know swimming but Ricki's tips helped put her at ease and she enjoyed it as well. Due to the small group nature of the tour, fortunately there was only 2 of us and we had lots of fun. Saw lots of fishes and reef. Would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for beginner lessons.

ZOLA IS AMAZING!!!

Reviewed by: Lisa Covington

I have to admit that this being my first time snorkeling, I had never been so scared and nervous in my WHOLE life!!

Zola, our instructor, was extremely patient and caring throughout the entire experience. Even through I had to concentrate extremely hard with breathing and using my flippers, I was SO proud of myself and I couldn't have done it without him.

Ask for Zola for the snorkeling tour, you wont' be sorry. You will be in terrific hands!

Great first scuba experience! Great Instructor!

Reviewed by: Natalia

It was our first scuba dive experience and we could not have had a better time!
All thanks to our instructor, Zola, he was super helpful from diving safety to the techniques and made us enjoy every second of the dive.
We want to point out and send a special thanks to Zola on how patient he was. He made sure I was comfortable in the water, since I was a bit scared at first, still getting used to the equipment and picking up the new breathing pattern.
We'll definitely do it again!

Waikiki Mermaid Photoshoot & Swim Tour at the Magic Island Lagoon

I proposed to my fiancé on this trip

Reviewed by: Bobby Romadka

My now fiancé loves mermaids. So I knew she would love to do this. She absolutely loved swimming with the tail on and the photo shoot we did was absolutely hilarious. If you’re a guy, you will probably have to swallow some ego here but it’s worth it. Ricki the instructor is amazing. We swam and then I popped the question overlooking diamond head. Great for all ages.

Super amazing experience!

Reviewed by: Priscilla

My boyfriend and I went to this event on the first day of our trip. Our coach is so nice and accommodating. The oxygen tank is heavy and I couldn't really carry it. So he actually carried it for me and helped me wear it when I was in water so it didn't feel heavy haha.
For the next half an hour, we dived around and saw so many small, tropical fishes swimming around us. We saw coral reefs and even a starfish.
It was our first time scuba diving, and our coach is so patient and nice and explained the procedures and things to keep in mind to us in detail. He also answered all the questions I had. He took photos and videos of us scuba diving.
Overall, it was such an amazing experience!

サーフィン・レッスン　アラモアナ・ビーチ･パーク　3歳から参加できる！ by サーフHNL

It was a good experience. いい経験でした

Reviewed by: はは屋

I visited Hawaii to celebrate my 60th birthday. Other tours were limited to those under 59, so I signed up for this one. I thought it would be my last chance to take on this challenge in my lifetime, and I was eager to participate, but it required quite a bit of physical strength. I managed to stand on the board just once for a short time.

The water at Kewalo Basin was beautiful. I fell off multiple times, but the water felt refreshing, like soda. I wanted to ride the waves while looking at the city skyline from the sea, but I didn't have the luxury to do that. I participated with my daughter, and although we communicated in Japanese, I could manage to understand most of it, as it was mostly in English. The staff must have had a tough time attending to someone like me, so I would like to express my gratitude. I was late for the morning pickup, so I deducted one star for that. Overall, it became a shining memory in my life. Thank you very much.

還暦の記念で訪れたハワイです。つまり私は６０歳です。他のツアーは５９歳までとなっており、こちらに申し込みました。生涯で挑戦できる最後のチャンスと思い意気込んでまいりましたが、相当体力が必要で、短時間ですが、１度だけボードの上に立つ事ができました。
連れていってくれたのはケワロ湾で水がきれい。何度も落ちましたがラムネのような水中で、それはそれで気分がいいものです。波に乗って沖からビルの街並みを見ながら進みたかったですが、そんな余裕はありません。同行した娘と二人での参加でしたが、？という日本語で　まあ　なんとか理解できるかな・・ほとんど英語です。スタッフはこんなおばさんにつきっきりで対応してくれて大変だったでしょう。御礼申し上げます。朝、ピックアップに遅刻してきたので　星ひとつ減点です。私の人生の中でピカッと光るいい思い出となりました。どうもありがとうございました。

Reviewed by: Mr Ed

Neither of us had been paddle boarding before, but by the end of the lesson we were both standing. The safety briefing and instruction was tailored to us and our level of experience which was none. Both Mike and Michelle(hope that's right) were fantastic, just the right amount of cajoling to get us on our feet without any pressure. Talked about every topic known to man as we paddled about, had a great time and a great laugh too. I can highly recommend these guys and the company too as I later booked a surf lesson for the end of the week, which also rocked.

It was fun!! 楽しかった！！

Reviewed by: yuri

At 41 years old, I tried surfing for the first time! I was really anxious about whether I could do it. The instructor was a foreigner, and right after picking me up, they asked if I could speak English, which made me even more nervous... All the explanations on the beach were in English... I honestly wondered if I would be okay.

But thinking "you learn by doing," I took the board and headed to the ocean. I was told that there were good waves suitable for beginners, and somehow, after about three tries, I managed to stand on the board. The instructor only spoke very simple Japanese, like "Paddle!" and "Are you okay?" But they made an effort to communicate using the Japanese I knew and gestures. Also, perhaps due to the tide, when I got separated from the other tour participants, they quickly came to my aid, and at one point, thinking I might be tired, they asked, "Break?" Even though we couldn't communicate in Japanese, I felt their consideration in their responses.

I didn't request a female instructor, so there were two instructors, one male and one female. (There were five participants in total, including me.) It might be tough for those who have a strong aversion to English. However, the instructors were friendly and fun, and I was able to enjoy surfing itself, so I was very satisfied with the experience.

４１歳にして初めてのサーフィン！　できるかどうかとても不安でした。
インストラクターの方も外人で、ピックアップ後すぐに英語が話せるかどうかを聞かれ余計不安に・・・
砂浜で説明を受けるのも全部英語・・・本当に大丈夫か？！と正直思いました。
でも「習うより慣れろ」と思いボードを持って海へ。初心者でものれそうないい波がくると教えてもらえて、私は３回ぐらいでなんとかボードの上に立つことができました。
インストラクターの方は本当にかんたんな日本語しか喋れなかったです。「漕いで！」とか「大丈夫？」とか。でも知ってる日本語やジェスチャーを使ってなんとか伝えようと努力してくださいました。また潮の流れのせいか私が他のツアー客の方とはぐれたときなどはすぐ駆けつけてくださったり、途中私が疲れてると思ったのか「休憩（する）？」と声をかけてくださったり、日本語が通じないながらも気遣いが感じられる対応でした。
私は女性を希望しなかったので、インストラクターは男女の２名でした。（ツアー客は私を含め５人でした）
英語に拒絶反応を示す方には厳しいかもしれません。
でもインストラクターの方は気さくで楽しい人たちでしたし、サーフィンそのものも楽しむことができ、私としてはとても満足のいく内容でした。

I booked a surf lesson, but I wasn't picked up at the scheduled time. When I called to confirm, I was told that the reservation was for the next day. However, the date and time on the voucher were correct, and I had plans for the next day as well. After I explained this, they agreed to come pick me up. In the end, I was picked up an hour late, but I was able to take the lesson. They even extended the lesson time to make up for the delay after everyone else finished. My daughter, who has study abroad experience, was able to handle the phone inquiry in English smoothly, but I think it would be a bit concerning for someone who isn't as comfortable with the language.

サーフレッスンを予約しましたが予定の時間になってもピックアップされず、電話で確認したところ、予約が翌日になってるとのこと。バウチャーを見ても日時は間違っておらず、翌日も予定もあったのでその旨伝えると何とか迎えに来てくれるとのこと。何だかんだ予定の1時間遅れでピックアップされレッスンを受けることが出来ました。レッスンも皆さんが終わった後も遅れた時間分やって頂けました。
留学経験がある娘だったので英語での電話問い合わせもスムーズに出来ましたが、そうでないとちょっと不安になると思いました。

My wife and I signed up for a semi-private lesson. On the day of the lesson, we were picked up on time and went to the beach in front of the Ward Center. The instructor was a local girl, and she didn't speak Japanese, but she did her best to teach us in a way that was easy to understand, using gestures and other methods. Learning while trying hard to communicate with the locals in Hawaii made the experience even more enjoyable. However, please note that they do take photos, but there is a fee for that.

Really fun thing to do

Reviewed by: vikbmart

We had heard really great things about Girls Who Surf so had picked them for our very first surf lesson. One downside is that apparently it is impossible to actually get a female instructor which makes you wonder about the name of the group. Our instructor was Warren and he did a good job of explaining what all to do and then took us into the water. I was horrible at it and opted to sit out and let my husband finish the course instead and he actually ended up doing rather well. They took photos for us and since we were such bad surfers and there were so few photos they gave us a discount on the photo package. Both Warren and the photographer were really nice. Only possible negative of the outing is that even though we had provided height/weight info ahead of time they did not bring a board big enough for my husband and had to go get another board which delayed the start of our lesson. Wasn't a big problem since the weather was nice and we basically just sat on the beach waiting.

The conversation in English was slow, and they paid attention to our reactions, so it wasn't a problem for us, even though we couldn't speak much. With their excellent support, we were able to stand up from the very beginning, and we were very satisfied with the different views and sensations of the ocean.
