Kona Manta Ray Night Snorkel Tour - Small-Group Adventure from Keauhou Bay
Lots of Mantas
Reviewed by: Awesome day!
We had a great trip! We had non stop manta ray action! Apparently we were very lucky. I left my phone on the boat because the current was a little rough. It was an awesome experience, would do again!! They were literally belly to belly with me. It was a really cool experience!

Truly Majestic
Reviewed by: Susan
It was awesome! As soon as we got in the water we had Manta rays doing barrel rolls around us. Captain Kai, Justin and Jaz made the experience alot of fun. They know their Manta rays. An experience I recommend. Lady's I did this solo, don't hesitate. The night I went was well worth the money. Aloha!

We were able to see quite a few whales, and that was very neat and interesting to see. The staff was very knowmedable about the whales. All of the staff were very kind and helpful with asking if we needed anything to snack on or drink, and with helping us get to our bus after the whale watching.

Fantastic!
Reviewed by: Maddie
The crew were fantastic! First part of the trip had difficulty finding the Whales (Mother Nature you know) but the captain and crew were relentless in the search to provide us an excellent experience! We found a group of whales that came extraordinarily close to the boat. Refreshments and snacks were also provided. Great for any traveler, family, couples or solo!

Justin was so knowledgeable about the manta rays - we learned many interesting things. The equipment provided was very good quality and most comfortable.

Kona Manta Ray Night Snorkel Tour - Small-Group Adventure from Keauhou Bay
Coolest experience of my life!
Reviewed by: Coolest experience
This was the coolest experience of my life, and that is not an exaggeration at all. Plus that is saying a lot as we are world wide travelers and have done epic things. Every person living on the Big Island or traveling to the Big Island should do this! If you are considering it and wondering if it will be kinda cool or maybe sorta lame (like I thought it might be) let me assure you it is beyond cool!
We literally had to have close to a dozen manta rays swimming around us, most would swim within inches of us. Some VERY large ones also! No need to fear they have no teeth or stingers and are harmless (unless you are plankton). These creatures are truly magnificent!
The crew onboard was wonderful and knowledgeable. When we were done there was hot tea and a snack which was an added bonus.

Amazing Shark experience!!!
Reviewed by: James Atwood
This was such a great experience for my son and I. The crew was super awesome, very safe and knowledgeable about the area and types of sharks. Loved that they took video and pictures using there own equipment so we didn’t have to worry about bringing our own equipment.
I am so happy that we did this!!!! At the end of this amazing experience, we got to see a whale since it’s what season right now
Hands down, best freaking company to go shark diving with!!!! Got to see so many sharks and it was truly an amazing experience.
Looking forward to doing it again when I visit!!!!

Hawaiian Parasailing Tour & Adventure from Waikiki Beach [800ft & 1000ft Lines]
What an experience!
Reviewed by: Gina
Wow! Everyone in Hawaii needs to go parasailing! My boyfriend and I did the 1000ft parasail and it was amazing. Our guides who were loads of fun really made it a cool experience. They take pictures for you that you can purchase for $35 that come on an SD card. The process of parasailing was quite simple. You step into some straps, sit down on the end of the boat and they clip two clips on and then BOOM YOU ARE OFF into the sky! You gradually get higher and it is so serene up in the sky. Literally breathtaking. After 6-7 minutes of flying, they lower you down and dip you into the water (for fun lol). So be careful if you are wearing glasses/sunglasses. You’ll get a nice cup of salt water tea!

This little adventure is something you won't want to miss out on. I'm really glad we made it part of our Oahu vacation! Knowing ahead that if there were no sightings you would be able to use your ticket again later is awesome. We loved the pineapple drinks on board and the staff was top notch! It's great for all ages! I only wish they had more options for food or snacks, though that could be covid related, I'm not sure. Do this!

2-Hour Afternoon West Oahu Whale Watching Tour - Hawaii Nautical [Dec-Mar]
WOWW
Reviewed by: Prachi D
This a must do activity. Since Dec to Mar is mating season, they guarantee you sights of whale or will offer you another trip.
Those whales are majestic to watch. The views of west Oahu from the boat were treat to our eyes. I haven’t seen a landscape that beautiful. The good part is our boat was NOT overcrowded at all. The boat also had net at the front where you can sit. Its an amazing experience to feel the ocean waves so close.
The staff was super nice and fun. We were late by 3 mins and still they were courteous and waited for us. The music on boat is fun and the crew will keep entertaining you with the Hawaii'an language to call out whales and also jokes!! They were also helpful in clicking pictures for us. We even managed to get a pic with whale's tail in the background!!!
They offer 1 free drink per person (alcoholic/non-alcoholic) and a snack too :). I would suggest not to drink while on boat if you have a motion sickness. We had US COVID vaccination card so weren't required to take a COVID test. Please check with COVID requirements before booking.

We are so glad that we booked this during our trip to Oahu.

Doug, Natalie, and Nicole were an awesome crew, striking the perfect balance of fun and informative. We saw quite a few whales while still getting to enjoy the beautiful morning on the catamaran.

Good one time experience
Reviewed by: vkmr
Great experience viewing aquatic life from submarine. Totally worth to visit once in a lifetime. On downside, finding the checking point was too cumbersome. Do plan to reach well advance in time. Did see lots of fishes, turtles. A bit on the expensive side, but again where else you would see marine life so closely without getting wet.
Mahalo for your excellent review! We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your recent experience with Atlantis Adventures, from the shuttle boat ride to the deep-sea exploration. We love hearing from our guests and are thrilled to know you had a fantastic submarine adventure! Thank you very much for sharing your valuable feedback and recommendation.

Favorite snorkel boat!
Reviewed by: Yes to Hawaii
Love, love, LOVE this boat! It's a beach catamaran so no transportation is needed. Plus, they provide you with FINS that are super comfy and adjustable. After snorkeling, you get some snacks and can purchase drinks on board. We got the souvenir Holokai shaker to keep. We did the 9am cruise which was perfect for visibility and to catch a little bit of sun before it got too hot in the afternoon. Would recommend!

2.5-Hour Turtle Snorkel Tour with One Cocktail - Waikiki Rainbow Sail Catamaran
No frills catamaran sail in Waikiki, lots of Turtles
Reviewed by: Yes to Hawaii
With this cruise, we were provided with snorkels and snorkel vests. However, no fins are included. I'd recommend finding some fin rentals as it can be pretty exhausting to snorkel without them. Saw lots of turtles and fish! This catamaran is also a beach catamaran so the boat comes right up on the sand. It's right across from Duke's Statue (not to be confused with Duke's Waikiki restaurant). If you'd like a short activity in Waikiki to get out on the water, this is perfect! We did the AM cruise and visibility was perfect.

SPACIOUS catamaran, great visibility, lots of fish
Reviewed by: Yes to Hawaii
This catamaran is super nice! Since it was an early snorkel cruise, we opted to add-on a light breakfast so we could sleep in a bit more in the AM. Visibility was amazing. On the boat ride to the snorkel spot, we were so lucky and saw dolphins. This is incredibly rare in Waikiki so we were so excited to have gotten the chance to see them! There were tons of fish at Turtle Canyon. This boat provided us with floatation belts AND fins. The fins helped us out so much and we were able to cover so much more area than if we didn't use them. Loved this cruise & would recommend!
