Come aboard the Kai ‘Oli ‘Oli for a half-day of exploration, relaxation, togetherness.
This is the perfect combination for the perfect tour adventure in Oahu! Interestingly, Kai ‘Oli ‘Oli translates to “joy on the ocean”, and, frankly, Ocean Joy Cruises could not have picked a more suitable name. From its high-powered catamaran that will take you to a relaxing cruise along Oahu’s west coast, the awe-inspiring sights, the thrilling dolphin and other marine life encounter, the company of friendly and well-trained staff and crew members, and the scrumptious Hawaiian meal to cap the tour, Ocean Joy Cruises is definitely your ticket to a “joy on the ocean”!
For this tour adventure, Ocean Joy Cruises will be providing you with high-grade snorkeling equipment, and as well as instructional guides and assistance from its well-experienced crew. These inclusions will most certainly guarantee your utmost comfort and enjoyment as you go into the water and explore the underwater beauty that Oahu has to offer!
Down under, prepare to see untainted coral reef and rock formations and precious sea creatures, such as spinner dolphins, sea turtles, and tropical reef fish, all of them enjoying themselves in their pristine, well-preserved home. That said, make sure to practice responsible touring and snorkeling, which you will also be enlightened about by Ocean Joy Cruises’ passionate, ocean-loving crew. Surely, this is not only an adventure to remember, but is also a learning experience about the preservation of Hawaii’s oceans and marine life!
After that exhilarating time undersea, Ocean Joy Cruises makes the cruise back just as special, as guests are to enjoy a mouthwatering meal and some local refreshments on the ride back. Feast on delicious local meals, sides, and drinks while relishing the views and the breeze–truly a wonderful way to finish off such a fun, jam-packed day.
This tour is available everyday, and depending on your schedule and preference, you may choose to book a morning tour (Morning Calm Cruise) or an afternoon tour (Afternoon Adventure Cruise). Both, of course, promise an unforgettable time with your companions as you get a thrill out of the beautiful island life. Kai ‘oli ‘oli, indeed!
