What To Expect

Our cage-free experience allows you to SAFELY swim with sharks in their natural environment. You will walk away with a new perspective and appreciation for these beautiful creatures. Photos and Videos are included for free! We're a family owned and operated company rooted in Haleiwa, Hawai'i on the North Shore of O'ahu. On your trip, we'll be headed three miles off the coast of Hale'iwa to a location that's been in our family for generations, which is about 300 feet deep. A safety diver will escort you into the water where you will be able to safely watch as well as swim with the sharks, and other pelagic creatures. While swimming in the open ocean with sharks and other pelagic creatures, you'll gain a deeper understanding of the ocean and its inhabitants - disposing of the irrational fears and misconceptions of sharks and other ocean creatures. This is a "cage-free" experience where we will be free swimming with sharks for about 30 minutes. No heavy equipment is used. Just us with snorkel gear - so we keep the experience as natural as possible.

    An awesome time with fun guys. They make sure everyone has fun, stays safe, and respects the sea. You’re only in the water for like 30 minutes, but you still need sunscreen.

  • Amazing once in a lifetime experience

    Crew takes care to make sure everyone feels safe in the water. Family run business with roots on the North Shore. Support Kama’aina businesses.

    This experience was fantastic! I really love how our guides are extremely experienced and emphasized respect for the sharks and the environment. I try to book local tours to promote small businesses and their business is by far the best! One of my favorite parts was that I got to just be present because they handled all the photos. Great experience and worth every penny!

    I had a great experience, was able to see lots of Galapagos sharks. Felt very safe the whole time and crew was friendly. If you get sea sick, make sure you take something ahead of time because the ride can definitely get bumpy.
