West Oahu Snorkel Cruise with Dolphin Watch, Kayak, SUP, Waterslide & Lunch

Nice day on the water

Reviewed by: ELL

This was our 2nd time doing the Dolphins and You Tour (we did it in 2017). Last time was amazing as we had a very calm day and saw lots of dolphins. This time it was quite rough and we did not get an opportunity to swim in the ocean with them.
We did enjoy our time anchored in the bay, where we snorkeled, kayaked and swam. Lunch was delicious and the crew was terrific.
Even despite not seeing dolphins, it was a lovely day.

Reviewed by: ナインナイン

母/娘で参加しました!
朝は天候が悪く、遠くの方で雷雨も鳴ってましたが昼過ぎには晴れてきてイルカもクジラも近くで見ることができ、嬉しかったです。かなり揺れたので船酔いする方は注意!シュノーケルも楽しかったですがウォータースライダーが開放感抜群で最高でした!フレンドリーなスタッフの皆さんと日本人のガイドさんもいたので安心して最後まで楽しむことができました。
また友達と参加したいと思います!
心からありがとうございました。Mahalo!!

We had an awesome time. Checking in was a breeze. The crew was friendly and entertaining! Definitely had the best captain who took her time to track down dolphins and even whales for us to see. A must do if you’re in Honolulu.

Fantastic trip

Reviewed by: Adrienne and Tim

If you are looking for the best you have found it. Captain Mark handles the boat like a pro. The staff is the best in the world. The trip and experiences are phenomenal. My husband loved the water slide. I had an amazing time snorkeling. Seeing sea turtles, trigger fish and more. Whales were supper cool. The views are breath taking.

クジラやイルカ、ウミガメが泳ぐ原始の海を水面近くで体感!

Reviewed by: moto

家族4人でレンタカーに乗って現地入りしました。子供がシュノーケリング未経験のため少し早めに行き、ウェットスーツのサイズを決めたり道具の使い方を教えてもらいました。スタッフの方々は皆さんとても親切でした。独自のボートはホエールウォッチングクルーズの中でも最も水面に近く生き物の動きや様子をとても近くで感じることができました。海洋生物に関する解説も専門的であると感じました。最後はそこに飛び込んでシュノーケリングを楽しめるので、他のホエールウォッチングツアーでは体験できない楽しさがあると思いました。初のハワイでしたが、次行った時もこの会社の少人数で体感型のツアーに参加したいと思いました。

Waianae whales did not disappoint!

Reviewed by: Blu3yedblonde

An hour out, we were all (including crew) worrying we wouldn’t see any whales. Crew had seen 1 in the morning.
Into the 2nd hour 2 beautiful hump back made their appearance. They put on an amazing show for us, with multiple breaches. It was truly a memorable tour!
Crew was so positive, friendly, and informative. They were as happy as we were, with such a stunning “show”.

野生のイルカウォッチング&ウミガメシュノーケリングクルーズ フラやSUPなど充実のマリンアクティビティ<ランチ付き/ワイキキ&コオリナ送迎/日本語/英語ガイド>

ぼったくり。高価な値段に対して価値は無い。

Reviewed by: hawa

イルカと一緒には泳げません。船の上からイルカが泳いでいるのを眺めるだけ。イルカと泳げると思い参加しただけに残念でなりません。
HPにはイルカウォッチングと記載がありましたが、TOPページに載っているのみで、他のページにはイルカと泳げる様な曖昧な書き方だった為、イルカの近くには行けないけど、見える距離で一緒に泳ぐのかなと思い参加しましたが、船の上から数分イルカを眺めるだけです。
YouTubeにもイルカと泳いでいる動画が未だに載せてあったり、誘導広告のようで、紛らわしいです。
その後のシュノーケルは珊瑚も熱帯魚も全くおらず、何も居ない海で何を見ろと言うのでしょうか?
亀と会えると搭乗員から言われていたのに、亀も居ない。他のお客さんも早々に海から上がりつまらなそうに船でしてました。
唯一滑り台だけが面白かったですが、これで1人2万円の料金は高すぎて割に合わない。今まで色々なツアーに参加しましたが1番満足度が低く、高額でした。
お弁当も美味しくない。オプションで付けられる、これまた高額な写真は絶対に付けない方がいい。自分達で撮った方がよっぽど良い写真ばかりで、魚も亀もイルカとも泳げないので、ただ海に浮いてるだけ、船に座ってるだけの写真です。
こちらのツアー絶対にオススメしません。
客が少なくなり、経営厳しいからなのか、こんなに内容と見合っていない高額な金額設定にしているのではないかとさえ思います。違うツアーにすれば良かったと後悔です。

The crew was incredible! We loved seeing so many dolphins up close and got to see a few sea turtles too! The crew ensured everyone stayed safe while in the water which helped us relax knowing they were there if any of us needed a little help. We also loved the Hawaiian traditions included.

I took my folks on this boat trip, and they had a great time. We spotted a whale about 50 yards out and saw a bunch of flying fish. The crew were fun and informative and showed us all sorts of sites. I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone who wants to see a whale or just enjoy a big catamaran.

Super chill whale watch.

Reviewed by: Kathryn Reich

Loved the catamaran, as we got to sit on the sturdy netting and relax during our ride. We saw a mother and newborn calf and hung out with them for the duration of the trip. Adorable. The crew was entertaining, kind, and resourceful.

We were three adults, but we saw several families with children of a variety of ages enjoy the activity as well. It was winter when we did it and it was super warm. They provide sunscreen, but if you are particular about brands, bring your own. Also if you are sensitive to the sun, bring a hat that is able to withstand the wind. Two additional notes: bring shoes you are ok with being locked up as this is a shoeless cruise. And you get two drink tickets with a very serviceable bar and local draught brews.

2-Hour Afternoon West Oahu Whale Watching Tour - Hawaii Nautical [Dec-Mar]

It was awesome!

Reviewed by: Aki & Matt

Twenty minutes after leaving Waianae harbor, my husband spotted a whale spout first. After that several pairs of whales were spotted during the 2 hour tour.
We were so excited when one appeared at a distance of about 20 yards (whale came up to the boat) Also we watched a whale with a baby, and the baby appeared to wave to us hitting the surface of the water several times with a pectoral fin awhile looking at us.
The waves weren't so strong on that day, so even I, who get seasick, could spend the day out to sea without any problems. I was relieved that there is a restroom on board.
We relaxed sitting back enjoyed the whales and good drinks with snacks . We really had a great time.
The captain and the three staff members always took care to make us feel comfortable. The boat appears and sounds to be in good working order. We felt safe on it.
Thank you, CPT Dave, Quin, Aaron, and braeden!

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.

The dolphin tour was so crowded and even though the guide was friendly and the people were very friendly there were just too many. Many people didn’t actually get to see the dolphins in the water and were being kicked with fins because of how crowded it was. We will not be doing that again unless there are less people.

Reply from activity provider

Aloha Megan,
We are sorry to hear that you found the tour too crowded and will pass this feedback onto our operations management. We have modified operations this month so that we are better dispersing guests between tours available. We are also actively researching for the optimal passenger count that allows us to serve as many guests as possible who dream of swimming with dolphins while still prioritizing safety and comfort. We hope this helps to demonstrate our commitment to your satisfaction. Mahalo and aloha!
