Don't let the less then perfect weather deter you from going. We went on a cloudy overcast day and were still able to enjoy the fishes and sea turtles. Bring a water camera, get picture opportunity.

This was the most fun my girlfriend and I had. The water was a little murky the day we went out there, but you could definitly see all sorts of fish out there. It was our first time snorkling and our guide was excellent and stayed with us and continuously made sure we were all ok! He even showed us out where there were 2 huge sea turtles. We can't wait to go back!

It was the most wonderful experience for both of us! Allen was an exceptional instructor, holding my hand almost all the way. He was very patient, and we were surprised he had some cold drinks and snacks for us. He gets an EXCEPTIONAL rating! (September 2008)

The bay is so beautiful! We saw fish of every size, shape, and color. We even saw a sea turtle, which was what I really wanted to see. This is a MUST for any animal lover.

Excellent adventure, was disappointed one of the family members had a fear of water that could not be overcome. The snorkeling was fantastic and the owner knew all the great places to go and see aquatic life. WIsh there would have been some sort of refund for the one member who could not get out in the water.

The beach was beautiful. Very good for boogie boarding but snorkeling was not happening unless you took a thirty minute walk to get there with all of your equipment. To get to the beach was a five minute walk which was not bad but there was no transportation offered to the family to get to the snorkeling part of the beach. Really this outing was over priced. Carrying four boogie boards, towels, and snorkeling gear with kids is not fun. So we did not to get to go snorkeling here. There should have been a small shuttle offered to get to certain areas of the beach. Who wants to be carrying this equipment back and forth to the beach. The meals offered was good but again we had to wait till just before leaving to eat because the food services are back at the rental facility. All they need to offer is a shuttle and I would not hesitate returning.

This was by far the best part of our vacation! We chose to do the small group tour because my husband can't swim and has never been in the ocean. Not to worry, our guide, Alan, was fabulous!!! He was very patient and helpful. Not only did he help us with the technical part of snorkeling, but he brought us to some areas of Hanauma Bay that most don't see. We were lucky enough to swim with four sea turtles! We would certainly go back!

This was the first time I have ever been snorkeling and it was wonderful, the guide was very helpful and patient. If the current every got tough he would grab our hands and pull us through. It was the high light of my trip to Hawaii and I would recommend it to anyone.

This was my husband and I first time in Hawaii and our 1st activity was snorkeling in Hanauma Bay. Our guided snorkel tour, Allyn was very helpful and he brought snacks and drinks for us that was well needed for this activity. Equipments were provided. The snorkeling was awesome; we were taken to about 8 feet or more of water and had a chance to swim with the fishes. Hanauma Bay is beautiful but with this hands-on experience, we both learned to appreciate it. There were tons of fishes out there as we were snorkeling and we also had a chance to get very close to the corals. Overall, my husband and I enjoyed this very much. Thank you so much.

Our guide, Alan, was wonderful. This was my first time snorkeling and I was a little (ok, a lot!) nervous. Alan literally guided me by the arm and made sure I was ok the whole time. The bay is spectacular, the water clear and the fish incredible! I would recommend this tour to anyone new to snokeling and to those with experience.

My boyfriend and I went on the Hanauma Bay snorkling adventure. It was great to see the area and we did see a lot of fish but the activity was a little slow and boring for us (we had both snorkled before) I recommend this activity for first timers or those with children. We did enjoy it but not as much as we would have if it was a little more exciting or faster paced. The guide was nice and very friendly but not very informative about what we saw.

This is a very beautiful spot, lovely beach. I have been snorkling many times before including the Great Barrier Reef but have never done a guided tour. It was great to have a guide because he took us to places we would never have gone without him and saw much more. He new where all the hiding spots were. We saw so much more than if we had been just on our own. and what a great swim we had. Then snacks were provided after the tour. Well done! Cindi Johnston Whitby, On Canada

Alan was prompt and greeted us with a friendly smile and manner. He was thorough in his explanations and made sure we understood his message. Kiko (sp) was great with her bubbly personality and her delivery of sea creatures to the girls. The sea life was incredible and the girls had a grat time. We all commented on the quality of equipment as well which was top notch. Go, try them out. I would recomment it.

Having a guide was really nice since this was my first time ever snorkeling. Alan taught us the basics and provided us with equipment needed. It was great seeing all the colorful fish. One downfall (which wasn't anyone's fault) was that the water was really rough the day we went, so the experience was cut short since we couldn't go out as far as planned.
Would recommend to first-time snorkelers!

This was our first experience snorkeling and my wife cannot swim. Our instructor, Alan, helped my wife overcome her fears and we were both able to enjoy the bay. Alan took great care to guide us and make us feel comfortable. We immediately observed a multitude of fish and coral reef creatures in some of the clearest water we encountered on Oahu. We fell in love with snorkeling and will definitely do it again. We would definitely recommend this adventure to everyone.

Great experience. Friendly staff, great for people who like to spend the day exploring and relaxing outdoors. Kailua & Lanikai are great for relaxing on the beach, snorkelling & kayaking and isn't overly crowded. After spending the day at the beach, come back and get sweets & shave ice at the next door eateries and enjoy the ride back to Waikiki.

数あるシュノーケリングツアーの中で
こちらは達人ガイドさんが徹底案内してくれるということで
選びました。
その言葉通り、自分たちだけだったら行かないスポットに
連れていってもらえました。
ほかと比較できないのでわかりませんが
キレイなお魚がたくさん見れたし、大きなカメにも
会えてよかったです。
はじめてのシュノーケリングだったのですが
意外と体力を消耗することに驚きました。
今度はもっと体力をつけて、参加したいです。

10歳の息子を含む家族で参加しました。全員海外でのシュノーケルの経験があります。
ガイドの方は日本人ではありませんが日本語もお上手です。呼吸の仕方など丁寧に教えてくださいます。泳ぐ場所も沖には出ないので、シュノーケルが初めての方でも安心して参加できると思います。
ガイドの方が1時間ウミガメの見れるスポットを探し案内してくれました。ラッキーにもウミガメに遭遇して感激しました。効率よくシュノーケルしたい方にはガイド付きツアーがおすすめです。
ただ私達のように慣れている人には少し物足りないかもしれません。
1時間のガイド同行シュノーケルが終わるとすぐに帰ります。フリーで泳ぐことはできません。あと1時間でもフリーの時間があればもっと楽しめたと思います。
又1時間の間休むことなくひたすらウミガメを探して泳ぐので海中をじっくり楽しむ事ができません。
あくまで初心者向けのツアーだと思います。
