Our tour takes our guests along the beautiful coast of Waikiki, where we anchor at the well-known snorkel location called Turtle Canyon. This reef is known for the abundance of Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles that come to get their shells cleaned by the surrounding reef fish. The turtles frequently come up to the surface to breathe, where they can be seen by spectators who are both in the water and relaxing on the boat. In addition to turtles, you might see other local marine life. This includes various types of reef fish, eels, octopus, urchins, rays, and dolphins. Also with a chance at seeing Humpback Whales during Dec-April. Our crew is highly experienced with guiding guests around Turtle Canyons and maximizing their experience with the wildlife. When you feel satisfied with your in-water experience, hop back onboard our boat to enjoy the sun with complimentary beverages. Our Honu are protected by the State and Federal Governments, which means that you are not allowed to touch them.

You need your own towel and make sure you have your swimming gear already on - something to bear in mind if you are spending the day out and doing the later afternoon tour. This is a vibrant young company and they were very gregarious and fun. We only caught two turtles to view BUT were lucky enough to see whales late in the season (late April) and also a very curious seal which came right up to the boat so these were unexpected bonuses.

Wonderful time on the water both on the boat and snorkeling in the ocean. The guides kept us informed and safe. Encounters with the fish and turtles were great both on the surface and sea floor. A bonus was seeing the white tipped reef shark.

The crew were really awesome and the boat was great. Saw about 6-8 turtles and a bunch of other fish. There were a lot of other groups out there (can’t imagine how any it is in high season!) and the water clarity was a little bit murky but overall a fantastic experience and a really nice company to go with.
