I cannot brag enough about the crew that took us out on the boat tour. I can't remember all of the names, but I do remember Tomoki, Rebecca and Tyler. There were two other women and a guy with them and they are all incredibly sweet human beings.
This was my first time snorkeling in 18some years. I was also using a Easybreath Full Face Snorkel Mask for the first time which I do NOT recommend for anyone. About five seconds after jumping into the water I went into a full panic attack from not being able to breath in the mask. I felt like I was drowning and it didn't get any more graceful from that point going forward, folks. LOL! The crew was right by my side, holding my hand, allowing me to use the safety float and talking me through it until I could FINALLY feel at ease using one of their snorkel masks. Had it not been for their patience and understanding I'm not sure that I would have left the boat for any further snorkeling. I'm so incredibly thankful for them. :)
Beyond my hot mess of a panic attack, they made the entire tour fun with their hula dancing and interaction with the guests. Even the safety demo was fun. The food was great, the boat was clean as was the bus getting there. My OCD was a happy camper.
I highly recommend this tour and I will do it again should I ever return to Oahu. They are true professionals who share their Hawaiian heritage and experience to make you feel 100% a part of it. Mahalo, my Dolphins and You family. :)
