From the hostess at the Blue Tent to the boat crew - everyone made the experience enjoyable. Plenty of fish and turtles. Quality snorkeling gear. And finished with a nice relaxing sail around Diamond Head. A definite do again on our next trip. Since we stayed at the Hall Koa, access was a quick walk down the beach. No hassles of finding parking on the busy Waikiki strip.

There were few fish. More than half of the scenery was empty. I felt seasick. Since they don't shine white light on the fish, it was almost a black-and-white world. It was a wedding, so despite having paid a lot of money, my mother whispered, "This is one of the three major disappointments in Hawaii."
魚が少ない。何も無い景色が半分以上。船酔い。魚に白色光を当てないので、ほぼ白黒の世界。結婚式だったので、折角高いお金を払ったのに、母親が「これはハワイ三大ガッカリの1つ」と呟いていました。

It was a nice outing. You can bring your own liquor. The crew was nice. They only offer beer and water, but I think wine would be a nice addition. It was good, especially for the price. Nothing exceptional though.

I participated in a three-generation family trip! My father had been hoping to see a submarine! I was so moved when I saw it emerge from the sea before diving!! However, once we dove, there were not many fish to see. I was expecting to see a variety of fish, but there was a lot of time spent just looking at the endless seabed, with only occasional fish…
3世代家族旅行で参加しました!
父が希望していた、潜水艦!潜る前に海から現れる姿を見て見たときは、感動しましたー!!
が、いざ潜ると、魚少ないのですね〜
もう少し色々な魚が見られるのかな?と期待していましたが、果てしなく続く海底を眺める時間も多く、たまに魚…という感じでした、汗

Memorable experience! The crew provided a fun relaxed environment. They were attentive to our needs but allowed you freedom to explore the boat. Excellent snorkeling near the reef. My family had the opportunity to view a variety of sea creatures. Free snacks while sailing was an added bonus. Great overall experience at an economical price.

From check in to check out, this cruise was absolutely outstanding. The crew took great care of every detail without making you feel micromanaged! You want to swim with turtles?! Sign up! You spend 1.5 hours snorkeling with these amazing creatures. Back on the katamaran, lunch was delicious and plenty of cocktails and soft drinks. Then sails up and sail and it was breathtaking! I really can’t say enough good about this cruise. I would do it everyday if I could! Thank you Capt Josh and your awesome crew for making this the experience of a lifetime! They go above and beyond to ensure it is the BEST experience!

Captain Ryan and his crew definitely do a great job!! You can tell they all love their job and give their customers 150% every time!! We got to swim with turtles and lots of fish and every time we saw Dolphins they would go chasing them to make sure we got a close look every time. The girls at the front desk were also very helpful and when we wanted to buy souvenirs they went out of their way to go upstairs and show us everything they had. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

Great staff who made the trip lots of fun. Saw tons of turtles, though not a great variety of other fish - but I was there to see turtles, and so I was happy as can be!
Got a little woozy after being out on the ocean, and they immediately recognized it (without me having to say anything!) and offered me a dab of lavendar oil behind my ears/under my nose that cleared it right up.
Overall a great trip, highly recommend!

I made a reservation for the Premium Submarine, but later found out that I was put on a regular Atlantis tour with a lower rank. The staff didn't speak English, they were careless, and even when I complained, they didn't take it seriously. It was the worst experience. I will never go again. It's best to choose your tour company carefully.

It was my first time on a submarine, and I had a great time. They had made arrangements to attract fish, so I was able to see a lot of them. Additionally, the divers who were there to observe the fish welcomed us with an aloha pose, which was very nice.
The guide provided commentary in Japanese while the boat was moving, but only offered an English guide inside the submarine. It seemed fun with jokes mixed in, so those who understand English might enjoy it even more. Unfortunately, since we don't understand English, we had to rely on headphones with a pre-recorded Japanese guide, but we still had a great time.
My husband was so captivated by the seabed that he didn't listen to the guide at all, but he still enjoyed it thoroughly. On the boat to the submarine, we were lucky enough to see a whale spouting, which was very satisfying. According to the local guide, there are times when you can also see sea turtles and dolphins.
There were emotions that couldn't be captured in photos, so I'm glad I participated.
はじめての潜水艦だったので、とても楽しかったです。
魚が集まるように工夫がされていて、沢山の魚を見る事ができました。また、魚を観察しに来ているダイバーも、アロハポーズでお迎えして下さり、とても良かったです。
ガイドは、船の移動中は、日本語でガイドをしていましたが、潜水艦の中では、英語ガイドのみでした。ジョーク交じりでたのしそうでしたので、英語がわかる方は、さらに楽しめそうです。
残念ながら、私達は英語がわからないため、ヘッドホンで、あらかじめ日本語で録音されているガイドでしたが、充分に楽しめました。
主人は、ガイドよりも海底に夢中で、全くガイドを聞いていませんでしたが、それでも充分楽しんでいました。
潜水艦までの船では、運良くクジラの潮吹きもみれて、大満足です。
現地のガイドによると、ウミガメや、イルカに会える時もあるそうです。
写真にはおさめられない感動がありましたので、参加して良かったと思います。

I highly recommend it. It's right by Waikiki Beach, so you can enjoy it without wasting time and be very satisfied! I was surprised to see about five sea turtles up close. This was my first time snorkeling like this, and I was really moved. We also saw whales spouting from a distance while sailing! Plus, it ends at 11:30 (but actually lasts a solid three hours), so you can do other things in the afternoon, which is fantastic. Snacks are all-you-can-eat!
すごくオススメです。ワイキキビーチからすぐの所なので時間が取られることなく大満足できます!
ウミガメさんも5匹くらい普通に見れて結構そばに寄ってくれてびっくりしました☆

We took the Lunch cruise from the Hilton Pier on Waikiki beach to see the sea turtles, it was a great time to go out onto the water. Nice short ride out to the turtle area. The crew was fantastic, very informative and friendly. Gave great instructions on how to see the turtles and one of the crew members was in the water for assistance and to answer questions. After viewing the turtles they put the sail up and we sailed a little further out to sea and that was fun and exciting. Very nice lunch buffet and a few Mai Tais also made it a great time. Clean boat, great crew, nice lunch and got to swim with the Turtles! Will definitely do this cruise again when back on Waikiki.

Tours depart every hour, making it easy to adjust your schedule, and it was perfect for an activity before checking in on the day we arrived in Hawaii. The air-conditioned interior of the boat allowed us to slowly recover from the fatigue of our overnight flight. We were able to see large fish and sea turtles around the reefs and shipwrecks, which really boosted our excitement from the very first day of our trip.
1時間に1本ツアーが出ているので時間の融通が利きやすくて、ハワイ到着日のチェックイン前のアクティビティに最適でした。エアコンのしっかり効いた船内で夜行フライトの疲れがゆっくりと癒せます。
魚礁や沈船のまわりには大型魚やウミガメも見ることができて、旅の初日からテンションが上がりました。
