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

Perfect for beginners

Reviewed by: Jan from Minnesota , 2022/03/29

We wanted to snorkel without taking a boat ride. This was a great option. Our party of 3 (grandparents with granddaughter) were all beginners to snorkeling. They provided nice equipment so we didn’t need to purchase anything. The instructor, Ryan, was very knowledgeable. He showed us how to wear the items properly. He taught us the simple steps of snorkeling - breathing through the tube and floating. The lagoon was a perfect, protected place. We saw many different fish and sea creatures. Ryan’s patience with beginners was much appreciated. This was money well spent for an experience we will never forget.

Liz was our instructor/guide and she was awesome! She made sure that we were comfortable in water all the time. She helped us see fish and shells. She took great videos for us to take home. Also, she found a sea urchin skeleton for my son to take home as a souvenir! Thank you so much, Liz! We had a great time! :)

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

Awesome experience for beginners (non-swimmers).

Reviewed by: aj3031, 2021/12/28

We are a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 kids 9yr old and 6yr old). Instructor was very patient enough to guide us how to snorkel. He provided us some tricks to make snorkeling easier for beginners. He was always there to help us out and made us feel comfortable. Except for my spouse everyone else in the group are non-swimmers, the instructor helped us navigate through the water, and to top it he took amazing videos of us while snorkeling :)

Great Experience, Steven was an awesome instructor!

Reviewed by: Steve & Melissa, 2021/07/03

This was an incredible experience. Our guide Steven did a fabulous job and gave my wife and daughters the confidence to give snorkeling a real try. I would definitely recommend this again, and then take that experience and go to a better snorkeling location. Great way to try it out and make sure you able and ready before making the expensive snorkeling investment!

Amazing First Time Snorkeling Experience

Reviewed by: Nishant, 2021/01/16

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, 2020/11/02

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!

Waikiki Mermaid Photoshoot & Swim Tour at the Magic Island Lagoon

I proposed to my fiancé on this trip

Reviewed by: Bobby Romadka, 2020/06/26

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.

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

いい経験でした

Reviewed by: はは屋, 2016/10/12

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。

Waikiki Stand Up Paddleboard Lesson & Guided Tour at Ala Moana Beach Park

In result it was great time.

Reviewed by: Erica, 2016/04/22

I ordered group lesson staring at 10:00am with picking me up at 9:30am.
But I was picked up around 10:20am. I was waiting for almost 1hour. I don't why but I had a private lesson. Maybe he was late. It was good for me. And instructor was amazing buy. He was friendly and kind. And SUP was fun.
If he wasn't late, I would feel great at him. But I couldn't do my plan after that. I wasted time about 1hour. It's important thing. I'm sorry only about that.

SurfHNL. These guys rock!

Reviewed by: Mr Ed, 2015/11/23

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.

楽しかった!!

Reviewed by: yuri, 2015/11/03

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。

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。
