Best fun on the water

There are so many snorkeling cruises to choose from, but I am very glad that I chose Captain Bob! It was a breath of fresh air to get out of Waikiki and the beaches and the sky were absolutely breathtaking. The food was grilled fresh and the crew were made sure that all guests were attended too. Really, I just cannot say enough good things about this tour and have been recommending it to all my friends! Now they just need to get to Hawaii lol. Good job!

Snorkeling at the sandbar

My family and I had a wonderful time with the Bob's boat and would recommend this tour to anyone coming to the island of Honolulu. Everyone had a good time since there was something for everyone to do. My grandmother just wanted to chill on the boat, and she did, my mom would wade in teh shallow water and then work on her tan, and my brothers went crazy chasing each other down the sand bar. Me? I had a blast snorkeling at the reef and hope to go back soon!

Quick, cheap and easy

It is a shuttle and they get you to Waikiki in one piece. Can't ask for anything more! The staff members are very helpful and they did everything they could to make the quick trip painless. Will use again when I come back.

Can't wait to come back!

We all had a great time and I cannot say enough on how wonderful all the crew members are! They were all very attentive and helpful as well. My sister had never been snorkeling before and they had her swimming around and looking at fish in in no time. The area is also beautiful too and how cool was it to hang out on the sand bar in the middle of the bay?! Great time!

So romantic!

The food was great, the show was amazing and watching the sunset with Diamond Head in the background was perfect! Much better than any of the other luaus I have been on!

A piece of history awaits...

This has been one the best tours I have taken in Hawaii, and definitely the most memorable one. Not only did we see Pearl Harbor, but we were taught so much about the military history Hawaii and being able to go to other points of military interest was a definite twist on the typical Pearl Harbor tour! The guide was a vertiable fountain of knowledge. It is easy enough to go to the Arizona Memorial, but that is just a mere tidbit of the vast expanse of history that is there for learning in the islands. Everything was perfect from pickup to dropoff, and the memories that I have from this experience are priceless.

Amazing Sunset and an Amazing Time!

We would like to thank you for recommending this tour to us since we had no idea that a cruise like this was available from lahaina. The crew aboard the boat were awesome and the food was absolutely delicious. It was great to walk around the boat and nibble on all the yummy appetizers that were available! My compliments to the chef! Being able to see the sunset from the ocean made this one of the best times I had while in Maui. I really cannot wait to come again and hope to see you all soon!

A really good experience

The Hawaiian Fire Surf School name was given to me from someone I know back home who loved their lessons they received. I am pleased to tell you that they were right about this outfit. My 18 yr. old son and 12 yr. old daughter really had a good experience and felt comfortable out on the waves with the surf instructors. The lessons were given at a secluded area of the beach where the instructors could spot every one of their students. There were four instructors in the water with about 15 students willing to help the students catch the perfect wave. As a parent, I also felt comfortable because the operation was so well organized. I could see at times that my daughter would drift with the wind but the instructors would spot her immediately and give her a tow back and lead her into a wave to catch. I never felt nervous about the safety of my children. I would highly recommend this surf school. Not only were the lessons great but the instructors were really fun and friendly.

luaus r kewl

Some friends and I got together to attend the Royal Hawaiian Luau at the large beautiful pink hotel of Waikiki and it was great. We were greeted with beautiful orchid flower leis at the entrance of the luau by the performers and immediately served a welcome mai tai. The whole setting of the feast was decorated with class and Oh-My-Goodness, the beach and the sunset was perfect to capture a photographic memory.

The host of the show did not waste anytime in welcoming all the guests preparing us for a wonderful feast and show. The food was delicious. There were several isles of Honolulu's most popular food and desert and lets not forget the huge roasted pig that everyone looked eager to taste. The Polynesian performers were brilliant. They were graceful, energetic, and very entertaining. They got the audience involved and let visitors get an experience their first hukilau and Tahitian dancing. The Polynesian performers were awesome and very energetic. They really put on a great show.

Snorkeling with Dolpins are a Joy

They took us to a great snorkeling spot off of Electric Beach, the captain took us to see a pod of dolphins too!

After a quick safety briefing, we headed out from Ko Olina into the cerulean waters of the Pacific with nothing but a sunny cloudless sky above us. I immediately made my way to the bow of the boat so I could have a totally unobstructed view of the western coast of Oahu and the feeling of the ocean mist as it sprayed on us felt divine!

Soon after we hit the open water, the captain informed us that a pod of Hawaiian spinner had been spotted a little ways up the coast, so before we went snorkeling, our we all got to see these dolphins in action.

Spinner dolphins are actually nocturnal creatures, so they go out into deeper waters during the evening to hunt and eat, and then they come back into the shallower coastal waters during the day to relax. It is so cute watching the babies jump and frolic as the adult spinners took it easy in the water. They came right next to
