They weren't joking when they said "turtles sightings guaranteed" - I think we saw about 5 turtles at once, maybe more! The water was so clear that it made seeing everything, including eels and pufferfish, in the reefs so easy. The crew also found a sea urchin and an octopus that they brought up to the surface for us to see and learn about. They were a very fun group that made the experience easy and fun. We wanted to redo the experience all over again as soon as it was done! I highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting the area!

My three kids had so much fun that they want to do it again! It was a one of a kind, exhilarating experience for the kids and they can’t stop talking about it. They especially loved how they were dipped in the water multiple times :)). My oldest one (17) caught the experience on his GoPro and they continue to relive the experience by watching the videos. Highly recommended!

First they changed our tour from 8am to 2pm which I did not like because supposedly you can see more marine life in the early morning. We only got to see 1 turtle and few fish. Where they took us snorkeling wasn't too far from our departure place, when I was hoping it would be further to enjoy more of the ocean. I did enjoy the snorkeling and the tour but wouldn't do it again.

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.

The crew were excellent on our trip for my birthday on 28 September 2021. The snorkeling was very well managed by the team. The entertainment was first class. Just wish I had made a note of their names on the 12.30pm trip. Thanks.

Captain Ryan and his first mate were awesome, and we will definitely go again and can absolutely recommend this experience to others.

There is no refund for poor weather & the day we reserved our cruise there were dark grey clouds covering the skies & it had rained consistently that while day. I said at least we can see fish from the glass bottom of the boat. Nope. That really only happens during the day and the whole bottom isn’t glass, just 4 lol out areas and 3 of the 4 were covered due to the rain. I said at least we will stay dry under the shelter on the boat… Nope! “There is no avoiding the rain” the captain said. “AND if you tend to get seasick, watch out because you’re in for a bumpy ride!” Alcohol was our saving grace & a positive attitude despite the crappy circumstance we were in. Had the weather been nice it would have been great but watch the forecast before booking!

Amazing experience with these spectacular creatures that don't get the credit they deserve. This tour was definitely an eye opener and will give participants a far better and more educated perspective about not only the shark population but several others as well. Thank you IslandView Inc and the 3 guides who made the experience far more sensational than I suppose I was expecting.
The lead guys name was Sam but unfortunately, I don't recall the other two who were out in the water with us and taking photos. They absolutely made this adventure outstanding for us all!! You guys are awesome. I'll be back!!!

The crew was friendly and talkative. We had never been snorkeling and they made it easy and comfortable. The area where we went there are multiple boats and people, that is not a poor reflection on this tour, but we didn't realize so many people would be in the same place. We did see turtles!! and fish and the reef. They take little time going back so you can get pictures with the view.

Saw lots of Sharks! They come real close up! Crew was professional and very nice. There were 2 groups of 6 people each that took turns in the shark cage on our trip. Just be aware that while waiting on the boat for your turn (or waiting for the other group to finish their shark encounter) you are stuck on the boat and it can get real rocky. If you are prone to se sickness take proper precautions! My girlfriend was prone to sea sickness and suffered a bit while waiting on the boat but she made it through. All in all it was a great experience!!

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!
