Wildlife & Animal

[Reviewed by HawaiiActivities.com Staff]

My morning with Iruka Hawaii's dolphin swim and snorkel was nothing short of absolutely perfect. From start to finish, every moment on the water was just fantastically fun!

... moreThe boat was a pleasantly spacious and comfortable, and the crew was incredibly helpful and impressively knowledgeable about dolphins. Their expertise added a whole new layer of appreciation to the experience~

Snorkeling twice was a highlight, and I spotted a bunch of fish and turtles, but the real showstopper was seeing bottlenose dolphins gliding beneath us. It was definitely something I will never forget :)

We also got great views of Hawaiian spinner dolphins from the boat, and I can't describe just how adorable it is when you see them jumping and spinning out of the water. Definitely glad I had my phone camera ready!

Lunch was simple yet delicious, hitting the spot perfectly, and the availability of snacks was a great way to stay fueled for the adventure.

And a massive shoutout for the provided transportation from Waikiki to Waianae since it is almost an hour drive, and I wouldn't have been able to get out there any other way.

Can't wait to go again!!!

Absolutely incredible experience! Every crew member was friendly, knowledgeable, and joy to be around. We saw two large pods of dolphins (crew estimated each pod to be about 100 spotted dolphins) - it was awe inspiring t... moreo see these beautiful animals in their natural environment. After two separate snorkel tours for dolphins, we moved to shallower water for various activities - the crew members were so helpful and great with kids wanting to try everything! Splurge and purchase the professional photos! We highly recommend this tour to everyone and will definitely go again the next time we visit.

The whole family loved this experience! The crew is so knowledge on all part spinner dolphins and their habitat. I defintely recommend booking now because they were talking about a ban on Oahu!

This was my favorite part of our vacation. The staff were very friendly and professional. I loved that they really emphasized how important it is to respect the ocean wildlife. We got to see the spinner dolphins, turtles... more, and fish. I highly recommend it!

Had a blast, highlight of the trip for my teen daughters!

While the tour itself was great- we did see dolphins and turtles- this company has no regard for covid protocols. They pick you up and I asked prior to see if they enforced masks on the bus- as that is the law. They assu... morered me they were. When we got picked up the driver wasn’t wearing a mask! When I asked him he basically ignored me. Half the passengers weren’t. My family double masked but with no windows open it was very unsafe. If you want a safe experience- I would not pick this company.
