One Ocean Diving Hawaii Shark Dive on Oahu & Snorkel Tour Experience
Amazing & above expectations!
Reviewed by: Jon, 2021/09/09This experience was AMAZING! At peak, I counted 12 sharks swimming around & below us. A few of the large ones came level with us to check us out! It was intimidating & inspiring! Plus, there just happened to be a large barracuda where we anchored who seemed as curious by us as we were of the sharks!
I'll admit that I was intimidated at the thought of being cageless. When I saw the barracuda at the nose of the ship I was all the more intimidated. But, this was why I did cage-free, i wanted to stomp this fear/intimidation.
We were in the water for a long time (I think 30 to 40min). At around 20min I decided to let go of the ship & just swim around a bit with the sharks & the barracuda! I cannot describe the full experience. It was amazing being in a "foreign land" (the ocean) with these incredible creatures!
I got my money's worth & more and I absolutely will do another cage-free dive next time I visit! I've found a new love with this experience!
Also, the three employees who led our escapade were great, interactive, & friendly.
I highly recommend people bring a go-pro & selfie stick. Also, let go of the boat, even if briefly.

Jamie O'Brien Surf Experience - North Shore Surfing Lesson at Turtle Bay
Wills the man!
Reviewed by: Asefi, 2021/09/07I booked the lessons online having never been to Oahu or the north shore, but when i found out it was at Turtle bay Resort I knew it was the right place to be.(Forgetting Sarah Marshall was filmed there), but ya probably knew that!!
They have a little canopy set up next to the resort loading doc, very easy to find.
Will have us some basics on paddling, and standing up. Right after Dry instructions we hit the water. My wife and i were so eager to ride as for we are avid snowboarders for 20yrs. Let me tell you it’s a little different than riding a mountain. Like will said majority of the time you are paddling just to ride a 20sec wave, but it’s all worth it.
Next time we are going to surf all days in Hawaii.
Thanks again Will!!!

North Shore Round-Trip Shuttle from Waikiki to Haleiwa, Waimea Valley & More
Great Service
Reviewed by: Jeff, 2021/09/05I never write reviews, but figure I would with this because of how good the experience was. The driver was on time, communicative, helpful, and courteous. He even got out of the van to find me during the departure. And with that said, the van was clean and spacious. I'd definitely roll with this company again. Mahalo for a great experience!

Shark Diving Hawaii - Cageless Pelagic Snorkel Tour with FREE Photos & Videos
Fabulous
Reviewed by: Kahla, 2021/09/01This tour was amazing! The crew and captain was very knowledgeable, extremely nice and friendly, and funny. The Captain did all he could do to attract the sharks for us and the safety divers made sure we felt safe in the water and had everything we needed. It was a little choppy, but that part was out of their control, so I'm good with it! Overall, 10 out of 10!!

Shark Diving Hawaii - Cageless Pelagic Snorkel Tour with FREE Photos & Videos
Phenomenal, Once in a Lifetime Experience with the Sharks!
Reviewed by: Daniel A., 2021/08/23A heartfelt welcoming by the family team! Loved that they are down to earth, invoke conversation with you, dead serious about your safety and constantly staying vigil of your swim out with the sharks. They constantly checked in with you to see how you’re doing from riding to from on the boat, to swimming in the open ocean. It was great to see the sharks get up close to you to make you a bit alert but nothing I could say was dangerous and a close encounter. I will come back to them for sure!! Island view Shark Dive Tour will be the place I’ll be recommending others to go try. Thank you team for a spectacular experience for my son and I.

Royal Star Grand Circle Island Tour - East Oahu , Pali Lookout, Haleiwa & Dole
Best bus tour in Oahu
Reviewed by: Gil, 2021/08/22Kalani was our driver we were greeted with a smile. We made a couple stops for the remaining passengers. Than we were off all the stops that were made we were not rushed but Kalani did give us times and reminders to be back on the bus and at our food stops told us were to go to beat the long lines and eat the best food. Kalani was very informative and kept everyone involved. Thank you again for the memories and great times. We saw Oahu in a way that set us up to know were to go when we come back and have more time to be on the island.
