5.00We missed out on getting tickets to Hanauma Bay so when we saw a tour with 100%guarantee to see turtles, I jumped at the chance and booked tickets. And it didn't disappoint. Thanks to Captain Cream and deckhand Shannon, or experience was exceptional. Shannon was amazing, she was in the water with us and pointing out various species and giving quality information to everyone's questions. Her mother would be proud. 🤣🤣 (inside joke). On our way out to Turtle Canyon, we came across a manta ray. We saw plenty of turtles and the fish were a plenty. As we were on our way back into the harbour we had a of of spinner dolphins around our catamaran for about 5 minutes. This tour far exceeded our expectations. Thanks Shannon and Cpt Cream.
