Keep an eye on the water as ocean life teems through our waters. From the boat we may see Hawaiian Spinner Dolphin, Humpback Whales (Seasonally), Pilot Whales, Bottlenose Dolphin and even Flying Fish.
Next, get ready for some fun in the water. Our professional snorkeling gear and instruction will get you in and under the sea to view our vast array of tropical fish, Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles, eels and much more! Our captain will select the best spot of the day based on conditions. Have fun jumping off the boat or relaxing on the water's edge.
