What To Expect
Our Kauai Guided Shore Snorkel takes you on a 2 hour (from start to finish including check-in) guided snorkel with a certified dive instructor from the shore. There is NO Boat involved with this tour. Actual snorkel time is roughly 45 min-60 min. This adventure will have you snorkeling Kauai’s pristine south shore reefs and have you learning about our tropical fish, sea urchins and sea mammals. We are often greeted by a turtle nesting on the beach or a Hawaiian monk seal basking in the sun. What a wonderful experience from a distance, it is the law to keep within 50 feet of our endangered species. Learn more about our Hawaii ecosystem and identify an array of tropical fish. Beginners Welcome. Upon making your reservation here with Viator, Kauai Z Tours (The actual tour provider) will reach out asking for additional information to finalize confirmation. **WE CANNOT PROVIDE TRANSPORTATION, PLEASE MAKE ARRANGEMENTS PRIOR TO GETTING TO ISLAND**

5.00Had a great tour of Koloa Landing with Anna. Saw a few turtles. I am not a great swimmer but I felt very safe in the water even though it was really deep with an inflatable life vest on and a floating borad for backup! Anna kept a check on the whole group, making sure we were ok and enjoying the experience.
Best Snoreling Ever

5.00We went on a different snorkeling excursion on our last trip to Hawaii. We went out on a boat, were given instructions and then went into the water sine distance from the shore. It reminded me of some kind of moonscape and we only saw a few fiish. On this visit, our very exoerienced guide gave us instructions then took us out into a reef area. We had a floating devise to hang on to and he was especially thoughtful and kind to my deaf brother-in-law. We saw wonderful coral, tons of fish, many turtles and it was an entirely different experience. I would recommend It to anyone!
