For this tour, Ko Olina Ocean Adventures will identify two perfect snorkeling locations, depending on the time of the year of your visit and, of course, the weather and water conditions at that time. You will be taken on a relaxing cruise along Oahu’s breathtaking west coast, where you and your companions are to sit back, relax, and relish the sights and the breeze, while anticipating the exhilarating snorkel adventure that is about to happen!
In the first location, you will get a chance to see spinner dolphins, a huge number of which inhabit Oahu’s seas. You will certainly enjoy watching these creatures’ energy and playfulness from the boat, but you can choose to have an even more enjoyable time by actually swimming with them, which Ko Olina Ocean Adventures also offers. The crew members will gladly assist you into your snorkel gear, which is inclusive of the price you will pay for the package tour. Here, prepare to catch sight of these friendly dolphins in their natural environment and the stunning views underwater! This includes unblemished coral reefs and all those colorful tropical fish down below–truly a magnificent sight to behold!
At the next stop, the star of the show is the Hawaiian green sea turtle! Oahu’s Turtle Town, as can be gleaned from its name, is home to many green sea turtles, as well as many other marine organisms that frequent the area. Similar to the first stop, this prime snorkel location promises sights that will leave you awestruck and wanting more!
