Best snorkel/turtle/dolphin tour ever - Steff, Brooke and Lucas were an excellent team! Steph was an excellent captain and Brooke was a marine biologist very helpful and kind and knowledgeable. She literally picked up a seat, urgent and other things for us to hold!!!!, and Lucas was extremely , friendly, kind and fun. He learned a way to attract a dolphins by clapping underwater. This was our first time to Hawaii and a lifelong dream of who to be in the water like this.! The best thing is that they had prescription snorkeling gear.

1000/10 - The whole Excursion was great! We had a prompt pick up at a neighbouring resort. The bus was clean and in great condition. The bus driver was fantastic! (Very funny) It was a one hour scenic drive down to our boat. The whole crew (including the captain and photographer were great!) They were equally as excited about our sittings and were VERY informative, fun and friendly! We seen SO many dolphins, we even saw TWO endangered monk seals while snorkeling ( a m a z i n g ) and whales on the surface – in the distance. Would highly recommend this experience to any and all travellers! Would 10/10 return on future trips. We can’t wait to see our photos and video! Mahalo for everything!!

Dolphin Tour - Hands down one of the best experiences of our trip! The dolphin tour was incredible from start to finish. Captain Jason was knowledgeable, professional, and made the entire ride smooth and fun. Koa, our instructor, was amazing—super engaging, informative, and made everyone feel comfortable in the water. Huge shoutout to Ken, who went above and beyond by speaking another language to help international guests feel included and taken care of. That level of thoughtfulness really stood out. And Brian absolutely killed it with the photos—seriously next-level. The shots perfectly captured the experience, and we’ll treasure them forever. Thank you all!!!! Mahalo 💕 See you soon!

Snorkel Trip of a Lifetime - This tour exceeded all expectations. The crew on this boat was fantastic! They were respectful to the ocean, and we saw monk seals, manta rays, whales, dolphins, and sea turtles. The experience was our best time on all of Oahu, and probably the best snorkeling experience for any of us. The members of the crew were exceptional and they knew exactly what they were doing when it came to dealing with the wildlife. The boat captain was terrific and the individual guide who took us into the water were amazing. They served us lunch after we snorkeled, and it was delicious. The entire experience was a 10 out of 10! I give my highest recommendation to this tour company

Putting the fun in dolfunnnn! - The speed boat was a rip and a half! Shout out to my crew, Captain Jason, photographer Katie, and big dawg snorkel master Travis. Can't say enough about this group of talented individuals. Even though we didn't get to swim with dolphins, we surfed with them like absolute g's. Big time fun and lots of laughs. Will definitely run it back next time on island and need to do the manta tour on the big I. Also met crew member Kaden before taking off and was loving the energy she brought to my experience.

Dolphins and More Dolphins - Fabulous morning with Jason, Kua and Riuchi ( sorry if the spelling is wrong). The waves were big! But never felt in danger. Loved the journey on the boat and the joy of the spray in your face. Saw dolphins and shared the water with them as they swept by. Then saw a second, different type of dolphin. Up at 5am but would do it again tomorrow. Great experience led by an excellent team.

We were not able to go on... - We were not able to go on the tour due to weather. The captain used great discretion in canceling the tour for safety reasons. The crew was outstanding. The boat would have made the adventure really comfortable and fun had we been able to go. The lunch was very tasty and appropriate. The bread was awesome! Pick up and drop off was great- they even accommodated dropping us at the cruise ship terminal rather than the regular drop off spot.
