Na Pali Coast Explorer Ocean Rafting Snorkel Tour (from Kikiaola Harbor)

NaPali coast tour

Reviewed by: Tim and Christie

The Na Pali coast is gorgeous and something everyone should see, especially from the sea. Our boat sat 12 guests and was very fast, but smooth. I didn't get sea sick on this fast boat and didn't really even get wet! We did the beach landing and snorkeling. Snorkeling was good and the hike to the Hawaiian village was interesting and informative. I would recommend this activity.

BOB's Hawaii Underwater Scooter Adventure & Turtle Watching Tour

July 14, 2011

Reviewed by: Steven Quade

This was the most memorable moment for us. The chance to go underwater for people that can not swim was great. The water was so clear and the fish and turtles just swim up to you. They were so colorful. They were eating out of our hands. The crew was great and they took very good photos. I would love to do this one again. Thanks

Many Thanks

Reviewed by: C.C. from Burbank, CA

We were on the early Monday morning 6/14th encounter. I want to thank the crew for a very enjoyable time and keeping us safe. I have not been in deep open ocean water for over 40 years...it's a shark thing. The crew made it very worthwhile. The pictures on the CD are fantastic!

Captain Bob's Kaneohe Sandbar Snorkel & BBQ Lunch with Free Transportation

The snorkeling was fantastic!

Reviewed by: Art

My wife and I went on this snorkeling cruise in late February, and it was the funnest part of our vacation on Oahu. Allthough there are many choices for snorkeling you could take while in Hawaii, and on Oahu, I really think this was good for the price. The crew, the lunch, and especially the place where we snorkled - Kaneohe Bay. Fantastic! The sandbar was fun, I think they should spend more time there, or incorporate another tour that would be just for those wanting to lounge around on the sandbar and have some drinks and food. We are glad that we went on this activity, and would do it again!

Kealakekua Bay Guided Kayak & Captain Cook Snorkel Tour - Adventures In Paradise

Peaceful

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

Liked how this was in a bay...not in come choppy ocean with tons of waves and where I feel like I am having to fight just to stay upright...no way, this was nothing like that. It felt almost like I was back home at the lake and really peacefully just gliding through the waters.

And the bay itself is really pretty. Then the snorkel section of the trip was really fun too. To get in and see fish and wildlife I had never seen before was exciting.

Overall it was a really wonderful time in Hawaii and made a highlight of my vacation. Mahalo.

A great time

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

This was the third time we've taken Captain Bob's and for the third time, we had a great time. This has become a "must do" activity for us on every trip. The crew is friendly and helpful - Jenner and Kelly stood out for us - and the lunch was very good. The sandbar is my favorite part of the activity. As long as Captain Bob keeps sailing, we'll continue to climb aboard!

Ko Olina Ocean Adventures Snorkel with Wild Dolphins Rafting Tour [Open Soon]

So So....

Reviewed by: The Langes

The tour was very predictable. There wasnt much "uniqueness" about this tour. The wait time to even board the boat was extremely excessive. There were 3 people at the check in counter and only 1 of them was accepting people and checking them in while the other 2 enjoyed the chaos. After waiting in line to check in for over 30 minutes we were herded outside only to hurry up and wait some more. Boarding the boat finally approached and we sat there for another 20 minutes while they explained snorkeling to the group. Once we got to the first snorkeling site we waited on the boat another 20 minutes before getting in the water. After about 30 minutes in the water the captain demanded that we all get back in the boat. Now we were off to see the dolphins. This was about a 40 minute ride up the coast. The view was great. Once we arrived at the dolphin site we all took turns getting in the water and watching for them to swim underneath us. Not with us but underneath us. Okay, it was pretty cool

Sail and snorkel trip was great. Thanks to the all-girl crew and everyone at Captain Bob's. Special thanks to Jenner for his bus trip narration and musical cruise entertainment.

Only poor note was the ride home. Bus trip back to Waikiki was a nightmare. Traffic was horrible and Vince is way too polite to be a city bus driver.

Kaanapali Deluxe Snorkeling Cruise with Breakfast, Lunch & Drinks - Trilogy

Fun Family time

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

We took our son on this tour and every one of us loved it. He had the best time learning about all the new fish and animals and underwater sights that were new to him, and we loved the idea that he was getting educated without even knowing it...as were we.

My wife is a sweet tooth and she could not stop raving about the cinnamon rolls! And I was partial to the lunch. I don't know if it was because we had been out swimming and snorkeling around, but everything tasted just so good, and I ate enough for four of me it seemed! ha.

It was a great day, The staff was excellent and we felt very looked after the whole time. A+

Molokini Crater & Turtle Arches Snorkeling Tour & Snuba Dive - Aqua Adventures

Awesome replacement for SCUBA

Reviewed by: Handa

I haven't ever SCUBA'd and this is as close as one could get with little to no experience snorkeling or diving. The staff was top notch in their customer service. There are some other tours out there for a bit less money but they have so many people on their tour. Aqua Adventures was amazing in that the smaller tour (mine was about 20 some people) allowed for a more personal experience. I would do it again. I had plenty of time at two locations to SNUBA and snorkel. The fresh sandwiches and not too sweet mai thais (sp?) were great. Thanks AA for the awesome time!

Good Day

Overall a relaxing sail and a great time was had by my wife and i.

Never snorkeled before, but that was no problem....the boat was really impressively clean and well cared for. SOme tours can be kind of slack about cleanliness (bathrooms, facilities, etc..) but not this one...everything was immaculate. Staff was great. Always "on it" as far as service goes, and we had just a really great day. I could go on this tour several times and still enjoy it just as much, if not more, than the first time. Great staff. GReat day.

The Fairwind crew is the best there is - I highly recommend them to any and all. We had so much fun with our Friday snorkel that we booked another on the following Tuesday. The food was outstanding and the instructions were great. The fish class was lots of fun. Case is a great guy and an excellent speaker to people of all ages. We were only on the Big Island for a week and the Fairwind snorkels were the best memories.......

West Oahu Snorkel Cruise, Marine Life & Dolphin Watch Expedition from Waianae

Family Trip

Reviewed by: Terry

My family and I went on the Hawaii Dolphin Swim & Snorkel on June 26, 2011 morning swim. It was beyond our expectations. We found dolphins right away and the captain and crew knew exactly where to find them. There were several dolphin pods and we were able to get pretty close to them but not touching them. 3 of them hovered about 5 feet below my wife and I making their squeal and clicking sounds. It was amazing. The snorkel equipment they provided was in good shape and very reliable. The boat was fine with plenty of room to move around and feel safe aboard. The crew was very professional, friendly and entertaining. The food was average but any time you've been in the water for a while, coming out to a hot burger is always delicious. I would highly recommend this trip especially if you want to get in the water. We also had time to freelance snorkel in an area 25 feet deep that had several sea turtles hanging out. They were fabulous to watch swim by you on their way to the surface

Great crew. Best fun to value available. These guys have this down to the details. Pros all the way around. You can go with the others if you want but I know the secret.

I went with my family. My wife and daughter were first time snorkelors and apprehensive at the least. Mindy did a great job working with them and getting them into the water.

The captain went out of his way to find fun. The photographer took the best open water photos I've seen. I have seen a few.
The food was generous and tasty.

Thanks guys, see you next time.

Highlight of our Oahu Vacation!

Reviewed by: cathy

We booked this tour after reading about it on a web site. We asked our kids do you want to go to amusemant park setting and touch dolphins, OR swim with them in the ocean, and the results was unanimous The wild ones in the ocean! They picked us up at our hotel and took us to the boat, they were very friendly and punctual. The staff on the boat were beyond awesome. They were fun and explained everything and paid special attention to our 9 year old who was a little scared to go out in the big ocean. Pete sense her fear, and took control and jumped in the water with her and she had the best seat in the house on his back swimming with dolphins! He even brough her up a sea urchin to delight her while she was eating lunch! We had pretty rough water but the captain on the boat did a great job, very obvious he knew exactly what to do in in rough ocean. They bbq'd burgers for lunch with purple colored hamburger buns wheich totally delighted our daughter! They entertained us afterward

Sea Quest Kealakekua Bay Snorkel Tour & Rafting Sea Cave Expedition

Sea Quest Snorkeling Tour

Reviewed by: Tina Thatcher

This was BY FAR the best tour we took - even better than the helicopter tour of the volcano!

We enjoyed the smaller boat - only 12 people on our tour (from teens to seniors) plus Captain Steve and the Drew crew. Other boats seemed to have hundreds on board, although they may have had better facilities. Kayaks can damage the coral, and they aren't as mobile as the boat - no whale searching or cave exploring.

First, Hawaii Activities actually called us to check that we were going to be there on time and asked if we had any questions. Then, we checked in, signed waivers, and were assigned to our boat. It was all very organized and ran very smoothly.

Steve and Drew were very knowledgeable and patient with first timers. They served a wonderful snack (fresh pineapple and other fruits, chips, cookies, etc), and the snorkeling (two spots) was wonderful. They even had a book to help us identify what we had seen.

The icing on the cake was that two whales decided to grace us w

We had a great time on this cruise/snorkel activity. The staff on the boat were friendly and knowledgeable. The snorkeling on the reef was awesome with lots of colorful corals and many different fish. We saw a turtle in the water while we were snorkeling and followed it for awhile. We played water volleyball on the sandbar and it was lots of fun. The boat stopped at a spot where there are green turtles and we saw lots of them. The guitar serenade during lunch was a nice touch. I would recommend this cruise to others.

A QUALITY EXPERIENCE 1st CLASS FUN!

Reviewed by: Laura W.

I've been on other snorkeling cruises but was REALLY IMPRESSED with the boat and the crew. The boat was very clean, open and comfortable. Having great his and her bathrooms was a nice plus as well. The crew were fun, informative and professional. They make you feel very comfortable and taken care of. Swimming with the turtles was a total treat. There's a crew member in the water with you the entire time and they are not only looking out for your safety but are answering questions about the fish, turtles and the total area. In addition, they are educating you so you really "swim" away knowing more than when you came. The sailing portion was really relaxing and peaceful. It's great to see Waikiki & Diamond Head Crater from the water and being able to leave on this trip from the Hilton is a real plus. Even the food and snacks were good. I would definitely recommend this trip.
