Waikiki Turtle Snorkeling Tour - With pick-up and drop-off service

Overview

When you choose our popular Oahu snorkel cruise, you’ll be able to swim within safe viewing distance of regularly frequenting fishes and the occasional green sea turtles and hawksbill sea turtles in their natural habitat. If you’re visiting us between December and April, you might get lucky and see Humpback whales. But no matter what time of year you take this cruise, our multi-level deck will treat you to stunning panoramic views of Waikiki and the Pacific Ocean.

None. No turtles but still advertised as turtle snorkeling. There will be no turtles unless you go a spot where there are rocks where they feed on the algae, like at turtle beach in Kona.

Aloha! Every trip is different and we have no control over marine life! More often than not, we have turtles that love to visit us! Please be understanding of our lack of control. Mahalo!

Very over priced tour for what you get. We did snorkel only. They took us to an area where we saw very few fish. If you didn’t “upgrade” to use the water slide/trampoline (an additional $50 a person), there was very little to do. You can only swim in deep water for so long. We saw no turtles until we got back to the harbor. Snacks consisted of watered down lemonade and granola bars. We thought we could relax and lay in the sun on the nets but we’re quickly asked to get off as they were in need of repair. So, we sat for about 2 hours on a metal bench. Not enjoyable at all. Captain was very kind but that’s all I will say that was truly great about this trip!

Aloha! We encourage customers to get packages based on the activities they would like to do and handle. Some people like to do all the activities and some people love to just chill with the sea and fishes. And yes, we do offer an upgrade which is the different of the deluxe and regular package. Everything else you have mentioned is complementary, and we encourage customers to bring their own food and beverages. We do apologize for any inconveniences you may have experienced during your trip. Mahalo!

We booked last minute and the driver didn’t pick us up; however, I called the tour operator and they were prompt and apologetic. The crew was fabulous and caring, always checking on guests. They provided lemonade and granola bars complimentary and had restrooms on board. Tour felt very safe and boat was nice. However, I booked on viator and didn’t know there would be people on water slides, trampolines, and jumping off the boat. This activity definitely discouraged marine life from coming near. The turtle name in the title suggests that guests will see turtles. I understand wildlife isn’t guaranteed, but this tour doesn’t lend itself to seeing wildlife due to location and other guest activities offered. The tour should be named Waikiki snorkeling and remove “turtle” as that sets an expectation that it includes an environment where it’s conducive to wildlife or in an area where turtles go such as turtle canyon, which it doesn’t. It was a nice trip and the crew was great, but didn’t meet my expectations due to the name. Also, viator should disclaim that other activities are offered from the boat on the same trip. I would not recommend this trip for turtle snorkeling; instead ensure to select a trip that goes to known turtle spots like turtle canyon or turtle cove.

Aloha! We do acknowledge that our activities may seem as though it would discourage marine life. However, I assure you that we have seen pods of turtles throughout various trip, it may have just been an unlucky trip! And for that we do apologize and sympathize with your disappointment. Mahalo for coming aboard!
