Waikiki
Jenna and her crew were fantastic. They ensured we had a wonderful time sailing, snorkeling, and just an all-around fun time on the water. If your looking for good look no further. If you're heading to Hawaii for vacation I just want a quick day of snorkeling Turtle sightings and multitudes of fish you have to go with Jenna's crew
We had a wonderful time!, My son really enjoyed it. Staff was very nice. We got to see turtles had amazing Snorkeling experience.
Couldn't get tickets for Hanauma Bay, so chose this instead. Sent two 30-somethings on the excursion. They loved it! Saw several large turtles and lots of fish. Leaving off the beach is a plus since we were already laying out there. short and sweet and easy!
Very welcoming, the drinks were a plus! Best experience our family had on our trip to wakiki beach! The crew was amazing and funny with great personalities! I am scared of water and with this snorkeling adventure they made us feel very safe!
This was an amazing experience! We got to see so many sea turtles and different kinds of fish and the mai tais were delicious! The entire crew was so kind and helpful the entire time, and I even got a recommendation on where to go for dinner after talking with our captain, JJ, and it was delicious!
11/10 experience, I will definitely be returning to the Ke Kai next time I’m on the island!
Cons: Location wasn’t too clear, better signage in the future would be great.
Buoyant donut was too small for the amount or people, so lots of bumping and kicking, including from the trainer. A bigger float donut would be perfect.
Water was murky, but not much can be done about that. Maybe a heads up from the diver if they have an indication of the water condition before hand would help.
Pros: Diver was great in making sure that we got to see a few fish. He also dove down to grab some of the water life and we got a chance to hold them in our hands.
We brought our own snorkel and mouth piece, and diver was very helpful in making sure it was secure to their masks.
Diver was very knowledgeable and got us checked out with our photos and videos in hand very quickly.
Definitely recommend this for super beginners!
This activity was great for beginners. The instructor was amazing and made sure everyone had a good time.
The only drawback that day was water was very murky and made it difficult to see as many see fish and other sea creatures.
I would highly recommend this activity and instrutor.
Took our family out for a morning excursion, was a little disappointed that we didn’t go much further into the ocean or to a smoother cove. But we did see turtles & other fish around the coral! We can’t wait to get our disposable camera developed to capture our adventures! The Ke Kai provided all the equipment and safety briefings for snorkeling, all equipment was cleaned & sanitized before & after use.
Unfortunately, even through Dramamine & ginger ale 3 out of 4 of our family members got sick on the return ride to shore. The staff was sooo sweet and checked on us frequently! They took great care of us and recommended techniques to curb our seasickness that we didn’t expect to hit us so hard. I guess for us, it’s a good thing the boat ride was shorter off the coast than what we expected, lol
Overall excellent experience that got us off the beach and in the water! Would highly recommend this catamaran and crew!
Capt JJ, Brandon and Alex were rockin young lads passionate about beautiful hawaii and making sure we respected her gorgeous waters. Very diligent about our safety from Alex with the snorkelling gear and the water with great knowledge from Brandon. Happy dayz and they make a mean mai tai. From da aussie
Got a few families together and it was right outside our hotel! I would srick with this boat tour for future trips!
Our family loved the ease to access this snorkel boat! Had so much fun!!
Super fun and informative loved the small group feel and friendly staff went on turtle snorkel cruise and ended up having dolphins swim with and under the boat soo amazing!! Also snorkeled with many turtles. Been on many Hawaii cruises this one was the best!!
Five years ago, when I went to Waianae to snorkel, I didn't have fins, and it was difficult to return to the boat. However, this time I had fins, so I was able to enjoy seeing fish and sea turtles up close. Additionally, I was lucky enough to encounter dolphins!
The best part is that you can board from a hotel in Waikiki, which makes good use of your time. However, there is no Japanese guide, so it would be great if you could go with someone who understands English. I was with my daughter, which was helpful. I think it would be nice to have a sign with the same explanations even without a guide.
5年前に、ワイアナエまで行きシュノーケルしたときはフィンがなく
船まで戻るのが大変でしたが、こちらはフィンがあったので、とても楽しく魚やウミガメを近くでみることができました。
さらにラッキーなことにイルカにも遭遇しました！
何よりワイキキのホテルから乗船できるので時間が有効につかえますよ。
ただ、日本語ガイドさんはいないので英語がわかる人と行けるといいですね。娘と一緒だったので助かりましたが。
ガイドさんがいなくても、同じ内容の説明プラカードがあればいいのに、と思います。

Great experience family 1st time snorkeling guide funny and made you feel comfortable in the water
right off waikiki beach, easy and quick fun snorkel and we saw a lot of fish!
Boat was in good shape, experienced and friendly crew who knew right where to go for all to have a wonderful time!
Our first time snorkeling and it was the perfect experience. The crew was awesome - professional & fun. A Lifeguard was on board and kept a close eye on everyone. The turtles were so amazing! Highly recommend this tour!
Awesome crew, seen turtles, dolphins, all kind of finding Nemo fish. Best price. My only suggestion is to display a better sign or set up to know where to go
The boat was a great experience! They were very experienced made sure we knew how to use the equipment. One of the guides was in the water pointing out the turtles and all the fish. It was easy to float and snorkel. The boat was easy to find and the drinks were great! My daughter realty enjoyed the experience!
Had the best time of our lives the boat is amazing and staff was great!!!!!!!!! Seen lots of turtles and fish!!!!!!!!! Totally worth it plus you get drinks also!!!!!!!!!!
Very cool experience. Saw lots of fish and turtles. The view at the island was nice as well. Only thing I was not happy about was the life guard told us to remove the flippers while the tide pulling us away. Mad it pretty hard to swim to the boat. I'm a decently strong swimmer and I barely made it. Besides that great experience
The crew was so kind and professional. We had an amazing time snorkeling and seeing the fish/turtles! This was definitely one of the highlights of our trip!
I was expecting to be sailing since we were aboard a sailboat. I was very disappointed and expressed my interest to sail with the crew (the wind was awesome) they said we could sail back. I brought this up several times and got other passengers excited about it as well. The crew decided we didn't have enough time even though we waited at the snorkel spot long after everyone had come out of the water. We did not get to sail back. Additionally when we were snorkeling I saw a turtle covered in fishing line all tangled up... I pointed this out to the crew and they said "oh well we cant touch them" with complete apathy.
It was quite depressing and the apathetic unenthusiastic crew just made it worse. Seek another sailboat tour. Maybe they will actually sail.
The Prius departs from a location next to the Waikiki Hotel, which is easy to find and has relatively good security.
The terms and conditions are in English and can be read via a QR code, but you can easily translate them using a translation function.
There were no Japanese people present, but there are gestures during the explanations, so it works out fine.
I think it's recommended for those who want to experience a non-daily life without Japanese people around.
プリウス ワイキキホテル横から出るので、
わかりやすい場所で治安も良いほうです。
規約書はQRコードで読み込むタイプなので、英語ですが翻訳機能で和訳すれば問題ありません。
英語のみ日本人はいませんでしたが、説明時にジェスチャーがあるのでなんとかなります。
日本人がいない非日常を味わいたい方にはお勧めだと思います。

Very good trip. Crew was very knowledgeable while at the same time very relaxed. Put everyone at ease, regardless of experience level. Just the right size boat/group size.
Wonderful to be out on the water; we saw a couple of turtles on the way out and a couple more while snorkeling, as well as a variety of fish. Would recommend this excursion to others.
Beautiful experience!!! Boat captain and crew were super friendly, helpful, and funny
We had so much fun! The guides were so fun and goofy and great at helping us see the turtles and fishes. thanks for one of the most memorable experiences I have ever had! Wear coral safe sunscreen & bring xtra snacks & juice/water!!
Great experience! The crew were amazing and super helpful pointing out the spots were the turtles were. It is a smaller boat which creates a more personal atmosphere, but we still had a lot of room onboard plus we got to sit on the net. Again, big mahalo to the crew! We got to surf a few waves on the boat lol. 10/10 highly recommend.
Crew was very helpful and friendly. Plenty of turtles to see. Unforgettable experience
Very limited instruction was given into how to use the mask and snorkel. Mine was all twisted up and none of the staff provided any assistance.
The reef area is choppy and murky making it very difficult to see. There were 4 other boats there so the area was quite crowded. We saw 1 turtle and a few fish. Pretty disappointing.
If you are looking for a magical reef experience then I suggest go somewhere else like the Great Barrier Reef in Australia.
Back on the boat we were offered 1 drink only even though the tour says 3 alcoholic drinks are provided.
Wouldn't recommend.
