Waikiki Snorkel with Turtles Cruise with Beers & Cocktails - Ke Kai Catamaran

Can't stop talking about it

Reviewed by: Isaiah Carter

I have waited my whole life to go to Hawaii. It was well worth the wait and a huge part of that is because of Manu Kai Waikiki Snorkel with Turtles Cruise. It was amazing!
The crew was professional, fun, and awesome. They made us all feel safe.
Next time I do this cruise I will bring my own snorkeling equipment. My only complaint is that I wish it was longer. The best part of this was being able to do this with my beautiful family. We all had such a great time and we look forward to our next visit to Hawaii to do it again.

I strongly recommend Manu Kai Waikiki Snorkel with the Turtles with Beers and Cocktails. You will be happy you did it. Oh yeah, the Turtles were magical it made me even more in love with Hawaii. I haven't been able to stop talking about it.

Thank you so much for a great time!

Waikiki Turtle Canyon Snorkel Sail Holocaust Catamaran

Reviewed by: Angel

My family and I had a blast on our snorkel trip. This was our first time doing anything like this and it was amazing. We were able to see lots of fishes and turtles. The water was so clear that it made it so easy to spot fish. The captain and his crew were very professional and helpful. We had a great group of families with us and made the trip that much better. On another note we were able to see one of the crew members catch a fish on our trip. Fun time. Recommend for everyone to try.

アトランティス潜水艦ツアー ハワイの海底30mを進む海中アドベンチャー <ヒルトン・ハワイアン・ビレッジ発/日本語ナレーション(要事前ダウンロード)>

An incredibly valuable experience. めちゃくちゃ貴重な体験

Reviewed by: ゆちょぱ

Is there a submarine experience in Japan? The wrecks of ships and airplanes were incredibly impressive, and I was able to see sea turtles, which was wonderful! Perhaps due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there was no Japanese guide, and I got a bit lost along the way, but it turned out to be a very valuable experience!

日本であります?潜水艦体験!
船や飛行機の残骸が迫力満点満点で
海亀にも会えてとっても良かったです!
コロナ渦だからか日本語ガイド無く

Our ride and staff were exceptional in providing a safe and fun experience. As with any new experience sometimes we find it is not for them. But the staff checked on our safety and encouraged a fun and welcoming experience despite snorkeling not being for everyone.

Waikiki Snorkel with Turtles Cruise with Beers & Cocktails - Ke Kai Catamaran

Interesting experience

Reviewed by: Pam

It took awhile to get comfortable snorkeling in the ocean where you can't just stand up if you want. Nervous that the waves would take me under the boat I could not relax. Our guides were wonderful and talked me thru it until I calmed down. After that it was quite an experience. Not exactly what I expected swimming around with turtles because they were swimming way below you but it was still cool. The fish also stayed down lower which after snorkeling where the fish come right up to you in shallow water was alittle disappointing. Afterwards the Mai tais and beer were good except my daughter was sea sick by then and only wanted to go to shore. Would recommend this cruise.

Waikiki Snorkel with Turtles Cruise with Beers & Cocktails - Ke Kai Catamaran

Snorkelling with Turtles

Reviewed by: Sally

Communication was on point and kept us all in the loop prior to our cruise date. There were no issues is locating where we had to be.

5 staff in board were all really friendly, helpful and great advice. My son had issues with his snorkel once we were in the water and they helped us out straight away.

There were lots of turtles for us to see, the water was really clear the day we went. They came.so close to us, it was really amazing.
We had a wonderful time, My mum, myself and my 13yr old all really enjoyed ourselves.

I wouldn't take anyone not confident in breathing with the snorkel as it was a bit choppy when we were out there. The team was great from a safety aspect too with rules and regulations, not letting tourists do whatever they wanted and respected the environment.

Would 100% book again with this team.

Waikiki Snorkel with Turtles Cruise with Beers & Cocktails - Ke Kai Catamaran

Short but sweet

Reviewed by: Heidi B.

We want to express our extreme satisfaction with the snorkeling tour we took with our family this morning (10:30 am tour). In particular, the crew of the boat (Junyah, Bella, Josiah, Julian, and Amos) were very professional and accommodating. We really liked that all of your staff were clear with their instructions, but also relaxed and light humored. We really appreciated the time and attention they gave to our daughter, Olivia, who was snorkeling for the first time and required a lot of additional attention. Even though we required extra attention, no one was rude or impatient with us - in fact, they were very kind and understanding. Thanks again to your crew for such a positive experience!

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

It is affordable

Reviewed by: OCFD519JH

Like I said it is affordable. The kids running the boat we’re friendly an did the best they could. 22 people, some of which had not only never snorkeled, but were clearly uncomfortable in the water were too much for the crew to safely manage. I personally had to save a struggling passenger while the guy that was working the lifeguard shift was wrangling other dingdongs! Not the lifeguards fault he was just dealing with too many other folks and couldn’t get to the panicky woman fast enough. I don’t mind, I am a water rescue swimmer with my fire department but still… Her screaming for help couldn’t be heard over the clamoring of the other passengers on deck and the music playing onboard. When folks are in the water 100% attention to the swimmers is the only safe option and if you can’t hear them then the music needs to be off and eyes need to be on the swimmers. The operation was also billed as a sailing and snorkeling adventure with sailing being the key word for me. The wind was fine and other boats were sailing but our sails never went up. If you’re on a budget do it. but for 20-30 more you could do the same thing with a power boat, dolphins and turtles, food and water, and a photographer who would gladly sell you the images from the trip for a few extra dollars. In all honesty a confident swimmer could have reached turtle canyon in a easy half hour of swimming but that’s not for everyone.

For those of you who don’t swim, don’t feel comfortable in the water, or have small children that don’t swim. this is not how you spend your money. Endangering yourself or your family because “anyone can snorkel” in open water, when you’ve never done it before makes the trip that much less enjoyable for everyone including the crew. It is not their job to pay all their attention to you, and it becomes unsafe for everyone else.

Any chance to get in the water will always be awesome for me so like I said it is affordable. If it’s your best option yay!
Go for it!

1-Hour Hawaii Glass Bottom Boat Tour - Waikiki Morning & Afternoon Marine Life Cruise

Great boat trip

Reviewed by: Kerrie Duffy

Very reasonable priced glass bottom boat trip with a knowledgeable captain who told
great stories on the history of the area. His lovely wife even took a family photo for us with diamond head in the background.
We saw dolphins, turtles and lots of colourful fish.
The boat was clean and sanitised before we boarded. Free Water was provided and a toilet onboard.
Only negative is that It would have been wonderful if able to to go below deck to view under or From side viewing panels instead of Viewing down from the top.
I would recommend this trip for the views and experiences.
