Waikiki Boat & Sailing Cruises
Ride on the winds and waves of Hawaii as you set out on the best Oahu sailing and cruising adventures along Waikiki Beach! Take your pick from a variety of ocean activities, and begin your day early with a visit to your captain's favorite snorkeling spots, take a scenic boat tour at twilight and watch the beautiful sunset as you sip on tropical cocktails, and even dine on a delicious Pacific-Rim inspired feast. Then simply relax and enjoy amazing views of the Waikiki coastline and Diamond Head.
Turtle Snorkeling Cruises & Tours
See turtles on the best snorkel cruises in Honolulu, and swim among the Hawaiian green sea turtles in the open ocean. Visit the popular Turtle Canyon, and see where turtles rest on the reef while schools of colorful tropical fish swim around and clean the algae off of the turtle's shells. This beautiful and unique symbiotic relationship creates the perfect spot to see Hawaiian turtles in the wild, and a visit to Turtle Canyon is a must-do tour for any visit to Oahu. Book a turtle cruise today!
Diamond Head Crater Hiking Tours
Diamond Head Crater is one of the most iconic landmarks in Hawaii, and can be seen as part of the skyline from Waikiki Beach. 19th century sailors dubbed the 760-foot volcanic crater "Diamond Head" after mistaking its sparkling calcite crystals for diamonds. Diamond Head is now a popular hiking destination for both locals and visitors who are looking for an easy hike and breathtaking views from the summit, stretching from Waikiki to Oahu's south shore.
Water Sports in Waikiki
The famous Waikiki Beach is home to a variety of fun water-based activities! Go scuba diving along coral reefs and sea turtles or paddle a traditional Hawaiian-style outrigger canoe. Learn to surf at the birthplace of the sport, or try something a little more extreme with a parasailing or flyboard ride. The calm waters of south shore Oahu are the perfect place to try out something new, fun, and exciting during your stay in Hawaii!
