f you have ever dreamed of swimming with wild dolphins in Hawaii, this is the tour for you!

Experience Oahu’s spinner dolphins in the Hawaiian tradition of respect for these beautiful animals. We recommend that snorkelers assume a passive float position in a safe, non-intrusive manner. Snorkel at a pristine reef teeming with coral gardens among schools of brilliantly colored reef fish.

This cruise also takes you to Oahu’s Turtle Town, where sea turtles like to hang out. It is a natural turtle cleaning station. Here, the turtles gather to get their shells and skin cleaned by algae-eating reef fish. This amazing process of nature happens right in front of you!

Seasonal bonus: During whale watching season (December 15 – April 1) this tour includes whale watching and hydrophones to hear whales. Watch these majestic mammals, often accompanied by their newborn calves, play in and cruise the waters of west Oahu.
