Great day!
Took my family out on this, as it was something close to where we were staying and completely different from most of the offerings on Waikiki.
We did the HOT 2, with the jet-ski and the helmet dive. I've always wanted to SCUBA, and this was an amazing introduction to it! Got to see several turtles and lots of different colorful fish. SOOO much fun and a great way to spend time enjoying the sunshine as a family.

Surprised mom
My family and I were visiting the islands last year during Mother's Day and they treated me to this special brunch! I had no idea why we got on the bus headed down to the harbor, but once we got on the boat I can definitely say I was pleasantly surprised!
The food was great, and we had an amazing time on the top deck looking at gorgeous Waikiki. A great way to show your moms, grandmas, or anyone else how much you love them, they will definitely enjoy this one of a kind cruise.

Super time!
I had friends visiting the islands, and they wanted to do something a bit different, and 'off the beaten path' so I decided to take them Ocean Kayaking over in Kailua! We headed out, a bit late, and got there and the staff at Kailua Sailboards and Kayaks were amazing and friendly, telling us all the best insider tips for kayaking out there! We got out into the ocean, and it was extremely windy and choppy, but it was so much fun heading out to Flat Island and then over to the beach for a bit of relaxing snorkeling and sunbathing. Thanks again to the great staff at Kailua Sailboards for all their help with everything kayak and ocean related, my friends and I had a blast braving the elements and spending the day out on the water!

Fun with Hawaii Watersports!
Even though the weather wasn't cooperating, we had a great time with Hawaii Water Sports.
The water was kind of cold, but the staff was great at getting us to do the activities and have a blast doing them! The bumper tube was a lot of fun, flying across the wake of the boat, and I even was able to stand up wake-boarding!
SCUBA was great, the visability down there the other day was fantastic, and saw some awesome turtles and eels, we could even hear the whales singing underwater! What a great day!

SNUBA is awesome
I have always wanted to, yet been afraid, of trying SCUBA. My boyfriend and I headed to Hawaii for vacation, and we decided to head out and try this first before doing a 'discover SCUBA' dive.
It was awesome! Breathing underwater, while a bit scary at first, is incredibly easy and safe and one of the coolest things I have ever done, if only it had lasted longer! Swimming along with the fish, instead of above them, was something I can't even really explain, you just have to try it for yourself.
After this was over we decided we definitely wanted to try SCUBA, and plan on doing this activity next time we're in a tropical place!

Hawaiian Outrigger Canoe Paddling
A wild ride
Great fun. Have done a bunch of watersports in the past on my trips to the islands, but had never thought to try surfing in a canoe. My friend really wanted to try this, so for the group price we decided it was definitely worth checking out.
Headed over to the SE side of the island, and luckily had a warm and sunny day for our tour. The staff was very knowledgable about the sport and anything else we wanted to know.
Great experience for families and new visitors to the islands looking to experience something of "Ancient Hawaii" firsthand.

Fun, fun, fun!
Went on the morning whale watch and had a grand time. Easy pick-up from downtown Waikiki, took you to the boat and boarded. Get to take a picture as a family, and then they give you an in depth description about humpback whales and their migratory patterns and everything else you wanted to know!
They have a kids program too, where they take the extra time after they explain it to everyone to make sure the little ones understand everything they said!
Saw a few whales this morning, unfortunately none of them were jumping, but they were very awesome none-the-less! I highly reccomend this activity to anyone who has never seen whales in the wild before, as it was definitely an experience I will never forget!
The Star of Honolulu is also an boat in excellent condition and they take care to make sure each and every passenger gets to spot a whale!

Fun, Easy and Scenic Hike!
Attended this hike as a family with small children (ages 4&7) and this was a perfect morning outing! The hike was paved and only a moderate incline, and the views along the way up and from the top are remarkable!
Unfortunately the tides were not perfect for the blowhole to really be going, but we did get to see some spray and the kids enjoyed it as well.
Overall, a very professionally run operation with great pickup and dropoff services. The hike was a nice way to get out and see other sights!

Whale Watching Tour on the America II
Guaranteed whales!
Whale Watching on the America II is quite the adventure! We saw a whale within our first 20 minutes of searching, and were lucky enough to see several during our time out on the water!
The best part of this trip is the guaranteed Humpback whale sightings! If you do not see a whale on your first trip out, your next trip is free!
Sailing aboard an America's Cup Contender isn't a bad way to see the whales either, as the smaller numbers make it less noisy and less crowded so you are able to enjoy the surreal beauty of the whales even more! I highly recommend this tour to anyone wishing to see Hawaii's migratory whales and want the intimacy of a small boat with great professionalism!
