5.00This is a must do experience while in Honolulu! The crew (George, John and Captain Kareem) were fun, informative and kind. We saw so many turtles and tropical fish. They assisted those with children and people who weren’t strong swimmers. Ali this boat has restrooms and they provide drinks and snacks. Highly recommend!

5.00This was the BEST snorkeling experience ever! The crew was knowledgeable, funny, friendly and helpful! My first trip to Hawaii was made even better by ending it with seeing beautiful fish, several sea turtles and even flipper dolphins on our trip back in. Shannon, Lucy and Captain Greg were great! Book with them!
