Hilton turtle canyon snorkel was worth doing. - This was a fun Excursion. Saw lots of fish, hundreds in a school. Large, beautiful, bright colored fish. A few turtles were there, too. Water was a very blue color, but a slight bit murkey. Could see clearly about 10 yards or so. Fun boat ride, as well. Waves were a rolling 2 to 3 feet. 1 or 2 people were feeling it, but, the other 30 people had a great boat ride.

Great time for our family - Capt Jack and crew were awesome. The water was a little choppy but we saw turtles and fish all the same. A nice sail afterwards was so relaxing. Overall very enjoyable!!

Not quite what I had hoped for... - The staff was helpful and friendly. The catamaran was nice and gear was nice quality. I enjoyed the cruise and the beautiful views. They had a blue float off the back of the boat for us all to hang onto as everyone geared up but the material was very rough and scraped up my arms and also became over-crowded and I almost went into a panic. The water was very rough and too many people swimming too close to me which gave me extreme anxiety. I did not see near the amount of marine life that I expected - only a few fish and no turtles.

Just ok - I think it was designed for younger people. Everyone was partying after the swim. I was with my 13 year old Granddaughter. I also want to point out that the rew was awesome except for the older blonde woman. She was rude to me because I was not feeling well after I swallowed a gallon of sea water. She was anything but understanding. The rest of the crew were great.

Turtle snorkel tour - I was originally booked to go out on the catamaran that is docks at the Hilton Waikiki dock. I was called the morning of and told that they cancelled the tour due to lack of reservations/people scheduled to go out. I was given a later in the day option, a next day option or out of another harbor option. Due to my own scheduling needs I choose the other harbor. I had to take an uber to get there. Check in with the captain was fine. While riding out to our snorkel spot I sat toward the aft of the boat. Where a conversation was taking place between the captain and a friend of his that would be most akin to “locker room” talk. The conversation included discussing the captains current girlfriend’s physical attributes. This was very distasteful for someone in the hospitality industry. Lunch was provided on the boat and I had asked for a gluten free lunch. I was given two slices of turkey meat, with copious amounts of lettuce and one small piece of cucumber. I was not offered chips or anything else. The snorkel went well even though the visibility was not the best due to storms. We did see turtles and many fish.
