Waikiki Sea Turtle Snorkel Tour with One Drink | 2-Hour Morning Adventure aboard Moana Catamaran

It was okay, the crew was great.

Reviewed by: Baker

The only reason I gave an okay was because we ordered breakfast to have on the boat. Some how the company did not order the meals. We were told we would receive a refund. We have not received the refund yet but that also falls on me because I have not followed up. Our snorkeling date was March 16, I am writing this April 10th.

Snorkeling in waikiki

Reviewed by: Amanda

This was an amazing tour the guides were amazingly friendly and informative! The only down side for me was there were a lot of people in the water which made it difficult to really float and see the marine life. But it was mid day and it was a tourist trip. My daughter loves sea turtles so for her this was a dream! I would do it again but maybe earlier in the morning! Thanks again for a wonderful trip!

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

Excellent Experience

Reviewed by: Susie

Would definitely recommend this experience. Because of COVID, our group of 13 were the only people on the boat and once everyone was done snorkeling, they took us out to sail by Diamond Head. So even though I didn't get in the water, I enjoyed the time spent sailing. The rest of the group that went snorkeling, said it was amazing - wish I would have gone snorkeling. Maybe next time!

Great experience! Only issue is other customers..

Reviewed by: Mcs

Turtles!! We saw tons of turtles and they come right up to you and swim alongside you. The guides were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. My only issue was that there was two other customers who showed up about 30 minutes late and costed us about 30 minutes of our trip which was incredibly frustrating as they showed up with bags of takeout food (likely why they were late) while everyone else was respectably on time at the scheduled meet time. Even better with covid restrictions as there was only 12 people on board and it was very stress free and such a great experience! Mahalo for everything!

Awesome trip!

Reviewed by: Scott

There was a huge storm the night before, so we were unable to swim with turtles. HOWEVER, these guys still offered to take us on a sail, even though we were the only two guests on the boat. They said, "Well, you booked it, so we still wanted to take you out on the boat." We saw several different schools of dolphins, and they were experts in steering close to them and sticking with them so we could get some regally close up videos! Music was fun, and they shared lots of interesting info with us throughout the sail. I highly recommend!

I took my family ranging from 10 years old to 30 years old. Everyone had a great experience, even the 10-year-old who was a bit fearful at first. The crew help them overcome his fear of being in the water with the turtles. Cruise right now it’s a ball, welcoming and we felt very safe like the equipment being sanitized. They offered us drinks, water soda juice whatever we like. They checked on us regularly to make sure we were comfortable and felt safe. They were very entertaining during the right and very professional and the water. I would definitely recommend to my friends and family.

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

Good Break from the Crowds at Waikiki

Reviewed by: Ohio Couple

Captain Woody and Jacob were very knowledgeable, engaging and personal. We wanted to snorkel for 1 -2 hours and did not need drinks and food, just a couple of relaxing hours in the water and sitting. This was very affordable and low key. The turtles did not disappoint us as we followed and observed several along with a multitude of fish.

The trip does not include flippers so we rented 2 pairs for 10.00 total from the Waikiki Dive Shop on Nahua St., a short walk away.

The view from the boat on the way to the submarine was beautiful. There weren't many fish near the submarine, but I was able to see a lot of small fish and sea turtles. Before getting on the submarine, there was someone who interpreted in Japanese, but the explanations from the crew inside the submarine were in English, so I couldn't understand what they were saying.

潜水艦に行くまでの船からの景色が綺麗でした。潜水艦の近くには魚があまり来なかったですが、たくさんの小さい魚とウミガメも見られました。潜水艦に乗る前までは日本語で通訳してくれる人がいましたが、潜水艦の中でクルーが説明している内容が英語だったので何を言っているのか分からなかったです。

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

Up close and personal with sea turtles

Reviewed by: Stan Flouride

This well-run tour took us to a place known as Turtle Canyon a few hundred meters off of Waikiki where sea turtles come to get cleaned by algae eating fish.
There were a couple of dozen of varying ages (judging by their sizes) and though touching is prohibited, it was easy to get close enough that you could have.
Sharp, amusing crew, well maintained and clean masks, snorkels, and fins provided, and cold local beer.
A great combination.

Atlantis Submarine アトランティス潜水艦

Reviewed by: はるしゅん

I participated with my 4-year-old and 6-year-old children. I was hoping to see various fish and, if lucky, a sea turtle. On the day of the event, while on the boat heading to Atlantis, we were able to see wild dolphins on the way there and a whale on the way back (the whale was quite far away, but the dolphins were very close).

There was an explanation in Japanese, and we were not too far from Waikiki Beach, where we saw many fish and, finally, the sea turtle. We even spotted a small shark, which made the kids enjoy the experience throughout. The boat was comfortable, but the air conditioning was a bit chilly, so having a light jacket might be a good idea.

4歳、6歳の子供達と参加しました。色々なお魚や運良くウミガメが見れたら嬉しいなぁと思っていましたが、いざ当日参加したらアトランティスに向かう迄の船内で行きに野生のイルカと帰りに鯨を見る事が出来ました。(鯨はだいぶ離れた距離.イルカはかなり至近距離でした)

日本語での説明もありワイキキビーチからそんなに離れていない海底で沢山の魚そして念願のウミガメ、小さいサイズでしたがサメも見る事が出来子供達は終始楽しんでいました。
船内も快適でしたが、やはり海外エアコン？空調？が少し肌寒かったので羽織りがあると良いかもです。

There were sea turtles swimming too! ウミガメも泳いでました！

Reviewed by: ハワイ初心者

We participated as a family. It was our first day at Waikiki Beach, and we were amazed by the beauty of the ocean with the kids. On top of that, we were thrilled to see sea turtles swimming right nearby.

There was an option to take a photo with Diamond Head in the background, which I thought would make a great memory, so I decided to purchase it.

We traveled by boat for about 10 minutes to get to the submarine, and during that time, we were able to see a whale in the distance. The guide spoke in Japanese and entertained us with jokes. Inside the submarine, we were satisfied with the experience as we could see corals, fish, and sea turtles up close.

However, I experienced more motion sickness than I expected. They provide etiquette bags, but I recommend that those who are sensitive take medication beforehand.

家族で参加しました。
ワイキキビーチに初めて行った日だったので、海のキレイさに子どもたちと感動しました。その上、海辺ではウミガメがすぐそこを泳いでいて大興奮でした。
ダイヤモンドヘッドをバックに写真を撮るという観光地特有のオプションがついていましたが、思い出になると思い購入しました。

潜水艦に乗るまで10分ほど船で移動するのですが、その際にクジラの姿も遠くに見ることができました。
ガイドは日本語で、時にジョークもあり楽しませてくれます。潜水艦では、サンゴや魚、ウミガメも間近に見ることができ満足な体験でした。

ただ、思った以上に乗り物酔いします。エチケット袋は用意されていますが、弱い人はお薬を飲んで行くことをおすすめします。

Amazing trip joining the turtles at their day spa

This cruise was amazing and my partners highlight of our trip. The captain was very informative and went through all the possible creatures we were likely to see. At the reef we saw a number of turtles being cleaned by the fish which was very interesting to see. As a bonus we even saw a humpback whale as we headed back to the dock. Would definitely recommend this cruise.
