5.00This was awesome! Such a friendly crew all the way around. My boys and husband enjoyed the scuba scooters. I tried it but I got nervous and the worker that was with me, was so sweet and tried to calm my nerves. Very appreciative of him for that. The boys saw several turtles and lots of fish. When they were done with the scooters, we got to snorkel.

5.00I highly recommend the Sub Scooters and SeaBobs experience with Island Water Sports Hawaii! The crew was incredibly friendly, professional, and took great care of us throughout the excursion. This was our first adventure in Hawaii, and it exceeded our expectations. The experience was unique, fun, and unforgettable. If you're looking for an amazing ocean activity while visiting Hawaii, be sure to check it out! You don't even have to know how to swim. My teenage son and I had a great time.
Would do it again.

5.00What a fun experience! My daughter (14) and I had a wonderful time on this excursion. The staff is very well trained and friendly! We saw several sea turtles from the catamaran. My personal scooter guide helped me find one while I was in the scooter as well! It was an amazing experience watching all the sea life while scooting around the ocean! We also enjoyed snorkeling prior to our turn in the scooter. 10/10 would recommend!
