Ko Olina Snorkeling Cruise & Dolphin Watching Tour with Picnic Lunch and Drinks

Bella Esperienza

Reviewed by: CLaudia, 2013/09/14

Abbiamo fatto questa escursione durante il nostro viaggio di nozze ad Honolulu ed alloggiavamo all'Hilton Hawaiian Village.
L'escursione è stata nel complesso molto bella, ma il servizio navetta per portarti dall'hotel al porto dove partiva il catamarano è stato veramente scadente, all'andata non c'era posto per tutti e due ragazze si sono fatte 40 minuti di strada in piedi, al ritorno abbiamo aspettato circa 40 minuti perchè la navetta ha ritardato.
l'escursione invece è stata molto bella, abbiamo fatto 2 immersioni, abbiamo visto 3 tartarughe ma di delifini neanche l'ombra.
A bordo c'è un bel pranzo e i ragazzi sono gentilissimi e carinissimi!

West Oahu Snorkel Cruise, Marine Life & Dolphin Watch Expedition from Waianae

Amazing!!

Reviewed by: salejo, 2013/09/03

Mandy & Ali were great guides during the entire excursion. We arrived at our destination to pick our food options and grab our snorkeling gear. No restroom on the boat so please go before getting on the boat! You can bring your own drink & snack on the boat since lunch won't be til afterwards. We swam w/ spinner dolphins at our 1st spot. It was so amazing to see the baby dolphins! We explored the reef at our 2nd spot, which had so many different kinds of fishes. Ali swam to us w/ a starfish & other things for pictures & even explained to us what we were holding. After this, they took us out to see the spotted dolphins (Hawaiian name "kiko"). There were sooo many of them riding our waves, swimming under the boat, & flipping in the air. It was so amazing to watch. They explained they were hunting & they hardly see these dolphins. Afterwards, you go back to eat lunch then head back to your hotel. This was the highlight of my trip & I plan to do this again when I come back!

This was a wonderful experience. The driver Larry is amiable and knowledgable who provided all the information needed for the trip and he gave detailed description about the areas along the road. Crews on the boat are professional and helpful. They did an excelent job in making it an enjoyable trip on the sea. Watching the golden sun vanishing into the ocean, eventhough we did not make encounter with the dolphinss, yet it was an unforgetable pleasant experience.

Ko Olina Snorkeling Cruise & Dolphin Watching Tour with Picnic Lunch and Drinks

Ko Olina Snuba Sail

Reviewed by: Reena, 2013/07/25

Our group of 17 took the afternoon sail. The crew wants to have as much fun as their guests so they do their best to create a memorable experience. One meal, snacks, non-alcoholic drinks and complete snorkel gear is included in the cost.

There are two locations where swimming among sea turtles is likely. For $5 you can get a quart size of fish food and it is suggested to feed the fish at the last location. Divers don't mind diving to the bottom and up close to the marine life with your waterproof camera to get some amazing shots - just ask them. A photographer comes along to capture all the beautiful moments both on board and underwater. A dvd of 500+ photos of your trip for $65 is worth it.

Served during the last snorkling location, our family style lunch of kalua pork and teriyaki chicken sliders with all the trimmings was plentiful and satisfying. Alocholic drinks are $4.

Great first-time deep sea snorkling experience. Would definitely go again with these guys! Mahalo!

Comments from activity operators

Thanks for joining our newer product- the Catamaran Snorkel and Sail- we love the stylish snorkeling experience we can offer on this tour and that the boat can accommodate both food and a bar. We also offer a mini dive called SNUBA on this trip. On your next trip out, we'd love to show your group. Thanks again for joining us. We look forward to your return visit!

My 10 and 11 year old daughters and I went on this excursion. It was a dream come true. Our captain took us up to a cove area where there were a good 30-50 spinner dolphins were hanging out! We had a blast. We then moved over to the sea turtles and we just loved that as well.

Reviewed by: Kylie, 2013/07/15

This was without a doubt the highlight of our holiday, loved it. The girls that took us out were great, they took us to our first location where we got the chance to swim with about 5-6 dolphins, then we moved on to the sea turtles, just great. On our return trip the girls took us back to our first location where there was now a pod of about 70 dolphins that we got to swim with. Just amazing. Thanks girls.

Ko Olina Snorkeling Cruise & Dolphin Watching Tour with Picnic Lunch and Drinks

Good experience, but not amazing snorkeling

Reviewed by: User038575, 2013/06/18

I gave an ok/average rating because this was an expensive excursion and the snorkeling was not up to par. The staff was incredible---- friendly, fun and courteous, but this seemed to be a boat ride geared toward hanging out and drinking on the boat rather than seeing awesome fish, coral reefs, etc. We had 2 snorkel stops and fish/turtles were average. But the crew made sure we saw dolphins from the boat, which was cool.

As far as snorkeling, it was nothing too interesting especially because my husband and I have done amazing snorkeling in Maui and Bora Bora. If you want to drink and relax for an afternoon, this is a top choice. But, a little too expensive for what you get if you are really into snorkeling and seeing different kinds of underwater life.

Comments from activity operators

Thanks for your feedback. We definitely understand that our reef is hard coral- so not the soft fanning coral you get in warm waters, but we strive to do a great job showcasing what we do have to offer on Oahu. One of the sites is Oahu's second largest living reef, though due to weather/water conditions we can't always go there. Perhaps next time you can join us on our other tour- the Dolphin Snorkel Tour- which offers THREE snorkel sites (not two that the Sail offers) including a chance to snorkel view dolphins in the wild. It sounds like you are seeking more adventure and that is what that tour offers. Adventure! We hope to see you again. Thank you!

Excellent adventure. Don't miss it!!

Reviewed by: Stone Family, 2013/04/19

This was awesome!!! We not only saw dolphins but we saw humpback whales at the end of their migration. They also took us to a reef where we snorkeled with a sea turtle and saw tons of tropical fish. The girls on the boat crew were awesome. Highly educated about the ocean environment and the sea creatures. This was definitely one of the highlights of our Hawaii vacation. Don't miss this activity. Especially if you can do it during the whale migration season. Also, Domingo, our shuttle driver that picked us up from the hotel was a great tour guide as well.

West Oahu Snorkel Cruise, Marine Life & Dolphin Watch Expedition from Waianae

Just Terrific

Reviewed by: garathome, 2013/04/12

They pick you up at your hotel and drive you to the west side. They gear you up, they advise you not to touch or chase. You get on the water and if you're lucky, like us, you spot a pair of hump back whales. Then when they locate the dolphin herd, you get to swim among them for about an hour. Then you get to spend almost as much time over a reef, where you can swim with sea turtles and other fish. It was just terrific.

Then you get a decent sandwich and a drink, because you will be hungry after a full morning. Then they drive you back to Waikiki.

Excellent photo disk available to chronicle your trip, at a good price, if you wish. 400 photos of your trip + bonus file with great pics of dolphins, whales, and the area.

Only negative was no changing facility, public restrooms only. Also no bathroom on the boat so be prepared.

Definitely worth the price for this experience.

絶対にイルカと一緒に泳ぎたくて、ツアーに申し込みました。
船での移動はそれほど苦にはならず、船上でのクルーのパフォーマンスも楽しめました。
ただ、前日の雨の影響で海の透明度が悪く、青く輝く海でのイルカ!!とはいかなかったです。
イルカを探しながら、何回も準備して飛び込んでを繰り返しました。結果、2回イルカを見る事ができましたが、一緒に泳ぐ事はできませんでした。
シュノーケルのポイントもあまり魚を見る事ができず、残念でした。
でも、海の中は寒くなく、気持ちよくぷかぷかできました。
船上のハンバーガーは特製ダブルバーガーが当たり、ラッキーでした!
イルカを見れた感動は確かにありました。
次回は一緒に泳げればと思います。
フラはまあまあ、おもしろかったです。

P.S
船は波を受け揺れるものです。船酔いを甘く見ないほうがいいです。私はなれているので大丈夫でしたが、船酔いした方が何人もいらっしゃいました。参加する方は酔い止めを服用してから乗船しましょう(^^)
