5.00This was an experience of a lifetime! The captain and crew were GREAT! We got to see a bunch of whales. This was the first time I’ve ever jumped off a boat into the ocean and snorkeled. I swam near a sea turtle and I saw a bunch of tropical fish. It was truly magical! The crew was very helpful in alleviating my fears, especially Laura. She took the time to talk me through the entire process from jumping in, how to swim with fins and how to get back into the boat. Everything was very organized. They really make sure you have a wonderful experience!
Experience to remember.

5.00This was the highlight of our Hawaii trip. We were able to see a seal, multiple kinds of dolphins, a humpback whale, and sea turtles! Every single person on the crew made us feel welcome. They were always checking in with us to see how we were feeling, making sure we felt safe and secure during the swimming portions, and I could tell they genuinely wanted us to have a great time. Shout out to Captain Stef, First Mate Tim, Travis, Laura, Lucas, Amelie, Gaylen, and photographer Yuya. Thanks for making our last day of 2025 INCREDIBLE. An experience I will never forget.
Scam

1.00It’s a scam. We didn’t swim with dolphins and they had no intention of having us Swim with dolphins. A complete waste of money!!

5.00I can't swim, so the ocean is my specialty I never thought about swimming with dolphins. However, the president of the Dolphin University, Dolphin, recommended it to me and I made a big decision! At first, there was fear, but more exciting than that, we won! The result. It was so amazing. Seen from land and from the sea are very different worlds Dolphin♡ Thanks for the push! The Japanese staff Ryuichi and the cameraman Yuya supported me as I was scared, and even I in "I can't swim, I can't speak English" had the best time. I hope to be back here again! Aiki
