Hawaii Nautical Waikiki Deluxe Snorkel with Turtles Tour from Kewalo Harbor

Amazing! So many turtles!

Reviewed by: Lauren, 2021/10/12

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!

2.5-Hour Turtle Snorkel Tour from Waikiki Beach - Hawea Rainbow Sail Catamaran

I did enjoy it but wouldn't do it again.

Reviewed by: Jessica, 2021/10/10

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.

An amazing afternoon on the Manu Kai catamaran

Reviewed by: Birthday Chris, 2021/09/30

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.

My wife and I had a great time! The crew was super helpful and friendly. They were great about getting the correct gear, pointing out interesting items - including the 5 turtles we saw that day.
Captain Ryan and his first mate were awesome, and we will definitely go again and can absolutely recommend this experience to others.

Waikiki Snorkel with Turtles Cruise with Beers & Cocktails - Ke Kai Catamaran

Catamaran boat out to snorkel with sea turtles.

Reviewed by: liz, 2021/09/14

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.

2.5-Hour Turtle Snorkel Tour from Waikiki Beach - Hawea Rainbow Sail Catamaran

Turtle canyon snorkel tour

Reviewed by: Sheila, 2021/09/05

We had a great time. Staff was helpful and kind. Waves were choppy but didn't stop us from getting it done!
When you get to the Duke statue look for the rainbow umbrella on the beach. The catamaran is tied up in the water waiting for you. The sail was not up so didn't see the rainbow sail on the catamaran. Check in with the folks at the umbrella and wait patiently for the late comers. We had approx 25 people on our tour and it was just right. Not over crowded but not spacious either.
They took us out about 15 mins off Waikiki shore to a place called Turtle Canyon. There were several other boats and craft out there doing the same thing. But it did not interfere with us.
We saw plenty of fish and 1 turtle. Fun was had by all. For the price you can't beat this tour. I am a frequent visitor to Oahu and would bring more friends on this tour again. Coming back next year with a different group and will suggest it again for them. Great for beginners and intermediate snorkelers.

NOT WORTH IT !

Reviewed by: Coraline G., 2021/09/03

Not worth it !

The boat ride was very rough, we barely had 15 minutes in the water. The water was really blur and we saw almost nothing.
Unfortunately the drink were not good as well, the mai tai was only ice and juice … not recommended!

Fun snorkeling for the first time

Reviewed by: Michelle, 2021/08/30

2nd time being in hawaii and haven’t gone snorkeling until now. The experience was very exciting especially seeing the fishes and sea turtles. The life guards and the kids were very helpful ! Such a fun couple of hours spent at waikiki beach. I decided to buy my own snorkel gear for sanitary reasons. I want to try it again some time when i get the opportunity too.

Waikiki Guided Turtle Snorkel Tour with Snacks & Drinks - Holokai Catamaran

Best experience of my life!

Reviewed by: Natasha, 2021/08/29

This was an awesome experience! I saw so many turtles, which was my only goal in Hawaii. I also saw dolphins in a distance. The guys on the boat were awesome! One of the divers dove down with my camera and took pictures for me of the turtles up close with a respectful distance.

I, sadly, also got seasick on the boat. I had no idea I would get that sick. The hosts were so helpful without making me feel embarrassed. They kept checking on me, bringing me water and lavender oil which helped a lot for the sickness.

I also loved that they were respectful of the turtles as you will get fined if you touch a turtle in Hawaii. They made us keep our distance from the turtles which I really respect and love about Hawaiin culture. They actually care about the Earth and animals.

Reviewed by: Emily , 2021/08/28

We saw lots of turtles on this trip. The staff was great and welcoming to our young kiddos (4, 6, and 7yrs old). We enjoyed the drinks after snorkeling and would do it again. We saw tons of turtles ans tropical fish the whole time we were snorkeling. I would definitely recommend them to anyone going to Waikiki.

We had a great time with the Manu Kai crew! Our snorkeling adventure was fun and exciting, the process was easy and carefree. We got to see about 4-6 turtles at turtle canyon also tons of fish and had plenty of time to snorkel. The crew is very knowledgeable and accommodating, offering drinks and taking pictures, they also are very concerned with safety and we always felt safe aboard the boat. Overall just an awesome experience! Thank you Manu Kai!

Go. See turtles

Reviewed by: K. K, 2021/08/27

Picked up right on the beach. We drove in from north shore and parked in the garage across the street. The boat ride was 10ish minutes to the canyon. Had at least a full hour in the water. There were 7 or 8 turtles right there the whole time. Tons of fish. A few minutes after we got there a few other tours showed up and there were a lot more people but still enough space for all tours. The crew was awesome. This was the best tour we booked this week.

Mana Kai Turtle Snorkel

Reviewed by: Liz , 2021/08/26

Our family enjoyed the boat ride. It was about 15 min away. The staff was wonderful. I was able to see only two turtles and some fish. That was very cool. The current was a bit strong at times. Glad the staff helped me with their surf boards.
My three kids ages: 4,5,8, had a hard time swimming because the current was a bit strong so they were only in the water for about 5 minutes. The goggles & snorkel equipment were too big for the toddlers. Next time we will pack ours. We did pack the vests for the kids but they do have some available.
They did see some turtles over the surface. Great weather. We did the 2 pm tour. Make sure to pack some nausea medicine, some folks felt very sick.
We liked being able to bring our own food & drinks.
