Sea turtles, Eagle ray, and fish Oh My! - Mahalo nui loa to Honolulu Snorkel Co, their incredible crew, and to the Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles we had the pleasure of snorkeling with! Extra special shout out to Eve, one of their newest crew members who not only kept us safe during our guided tour, but taught me how to free-dive and took photos with the go-pro we rented from their shop. Talk about a good time!

Awesome snorkeling guides! - Special shout out to captain Carlos, Avery, Madeline, and Amrhon who were very knowledgeable and professional but also very kind on our tour! They were able to direct everyone's swimming abilities and keep safe control over the group of us while in the waters. This was the best snorkeling tour I've been on. They made sure your gear fit appropriately before hitting the waters, and sprayed our snorkel gear down so we could see clearly. A solid amount of time was spent in the water, and we were able to visualize 1 turtle! Great tour!

Snorkeling with the turtles - We have been snorkeling several times but there are several reasons I believe this was the best. Any day in the ocean is a good day so the thing that makes them great is the crew. The crew on Lola was super friendly, respectful, and helpful. When they are dedicated to you being successful, everything is a win. They truly work with all skill levels. If you are a beginner or advanced you will enjoy this tour. Margaret, Madalyn, Ty, and Emron (the talkative one) are fantastic.

A highlight in Waikiki - We did 2 tours with this company as a family of 10, ages 10-79. Everyone had a great time and we saw lots of sea animals on both tours. Several sea turtles. The captain, tour guide Enron, and 4 other staff we interacted with were personable and professional. It was the perfect balance of knowing the crew was following safety precautions but they also had a laid-back, fun vibe. I was really impressed with the patience the guide, captain, lifeguard and shipmate provided to people who were inexperienced and nervous snorkelers. Our experiences on the turtle snorkeling tour and whale watching tour were the highlights of our time in Waikiki.

Alright - Unfortunately there were many jelly fish in the water and we weren’t able to go snorkel in the original place, however the crew made sure we were still able snorkel and we did end up getting to see some wildlife. our biggest downside to this trip was the fact that one of the crew members named Emily was wearing a swimsuit that showed her entire butt. Of course we were all sitting down so we had a perfect view of it. She bent over multiple times revealing even more. This especially bothered us because of all the kids on board! completely unprofessional and uneceptable.

Not what I expected - The three lifeguard crew were very sweet and helpful, and we loved them. However, the whole experience has been a disappointment. first, the way the boat is being driven has caused us significant sea sick and the captain did not do anything to help with it, and that's given the fact that we have never been sea sick before. second, its a very crowded area where we looked for turtles, and there were numerous boats and passengers around the same tiny area at the same time. Did not see any turtles, unfortunately, although we appreciate how sweet the lifeguard crew was.

Creepy, not family-friendly - We were expecting a fun, family-friendly snorkeling tour but were surprised to be greeted by thong-clad sixteen-year-old girls being exploited for tips. The families with children were visibly uncomfortable as teenagers dressed for a strip club walked around offering drinks. This was not advertised as an adult-oriented activity, but I don't know what else to call it. Yes I do: exploitative. Those girls were too young to ATTEND such an event, much less host one. We just wanted to see some turtles.
