Whales on the second venture!
Posted on: 2015/02/09
Picked up on time from our Hotel. Driver was very friendly, his helper was kind enough but quite young and she decided to get some sleep on the way to the ship, she must have had a late night bless her!(Not very professional!).
Onboard, breakfast was good and definitely worth the extra, you could help yourself as much as you like. Unfortunately we didn't actually get to see any whales on this trip so we were offered a free ticket for another day, which is very fair, however we did have to pay again for transportation which I think should have also been included. We also paid again for breakfast because it was worth it.
Our second cruise however we did finally get to see some whales which was great, as this was our main reason for coming to Oahu at this time of year.
Overall it's a very worthwhile trip to go on, even just for the views of Honolulu and the Breakfast.

Fantastic Day Out
Posted on: 2013/10/08
Had an absolutely great day. I have only done one other dive about 20 years ago, so I booked an introductory 2 tank dive. The instruction by Bob was excellent. There was just myself and 1 other customer on our first dive then on the second we were joined by another instructor. We had encounters with Scorpion Leaf Fish, Moray Eels, Star Fish and not forgetting the best of all, the Octopus, which decided to attach itself to Bobs face. We were allowed to touch many of the different species under the close observation of our instructors. We spent at least 20-25 mins on the first dive and probably 30-35 minutes on the second. A truly memorable day from collection from my hotel to being dropped back off again. Wish I'd done it at the beginning of my holiday to then get certified from PADI. I'll just do it the next time.....

Sea Life Park Hawaii Dolphin Experiences & Day Pass / Dolphin Encounter + Sea Lion + Reef Encounter
Fantastic Day
Posted on: 2013/10/02
All Cameras (except waterproof, wind on disposeables), spectacles (unless fitted with a strap around your neck, all jewelry and hats are not allowed in the water with the animals. They charge $16 per photo of each of you, and $40 for a dvd, all in all a very lucrative and over priced business. If you book more than one experience, as we did, let them know you are waiting outside the reception area as it is extremely cold in there and the staff are never on time to collect you, you will get hypothermia if you are still wet from a previous experience. Other than these minor issues, we had a great day and thoroughly enjoyed each experience. We did the dolphin, sea lion and sting ray experiences.
