I had thought we had bought the max tickets and the boat was all for my group but that was not the case. Important to call the company and not just what viator allows you to book. It was good just know it’s very very touristy. Tons of people in the water at the Turtle station. Crew was awesome, professional and trustworthy. Bring drinks and snacks. There are none on board. Also be prepared to pee in the ocean 🤣

Lorraine_P

Seeing the turtles was great. Wishes we had seen more fish but only saw a couple. The crew were very helpful and friendly.

Everyone was super nice and they all made sure that we got to see as much as possible. On the way to the snorkeling point they stopped multiple times to let us take pictures of turtles etc. on the surface and during the actual snorkeling they made sure that we got to see as much as possible too

The crew, including the mascot (the cute dog) were a great bunch. Knowledgeable, engaging and helpful. Their dog hanging with us just made the trip.

Got to see another of turtles was a fun experience will do again. Staff was great weather also. Wait time was great. 5 stars

Jonathan_L

Friendly and helpful crew, the boat ride is just as fun as the snorkeling. Sit in the front on the net, you will get wet but it is a blast! We saw many turtles. There are 2 lifeguards on the boat to help and keep you safe, they also have longboards that beginners can grab to steady themselves and feel safer.

Fantastic experience! Firstly, it is so handy that it leaves from such a central location (Waikiki Beach) so that we didn't need to make our way to the Marina like for other similar tours. Secondly, the staff were so friendly and helpful. We went out on a sunny, calm day and it was amazing snorkling with fish and turtles...such a great experience for my 10-year-old and myself. You get awesome views looking back at Waikiki, and the sea was surprisingly warm. I highly recommend this tour! PS: the staff are also super kind to those who get seasick...it was a calm day, so I wasn't sick due to anything other than my overly sensitive stomach, it just turns out that boats and I don't mix well. The staff were so sweet and supportive - which was much appreciated...lol
