Turtles and You

Here in Honolulu, few experiences compare to swimming alongside our beloved Hawaiian green sea turtles, and Turtles and You Honolulu delivers exactly that magic. This 2-hour snorkeling adventure departs from Kewalo Basin Harbor aboard a spacious double-decker boat, complete with wraparound seating that gives everyone the perfect vantage point.

What sets this tour apart? Their turtle-sighting guarantee. The crew knows exactly where these gentle giants love to hang out, and they're so confident you'll spot them that they offer free rebooking (valid for three years) if you don't see any turtles during your trip.

Your adventure starts with convenient round-trip transport from Waikiki. Once aboard, you'll cruise past Waikiki's iconic coastline while scanning for Hawaiian spinner dolphins. Winter visitors get a bonus—humpback whale sightings are common during their migration season.

The water safety-certified crew welcomes swimmers of all abilities, guiding you to prime snorkeling spots where green sea turtles glide through crystal-clear waters alongside colorful Hawaiian reef fish. All snorkel gear is included, plus complimentary soft drinks and snacks to keep you refreshed.

Between turtle encounters, you'll enjoy an authentic hula performance that adds beautiful cultural context to your marine adventure. The boat's thoughtful design maximizes both comfort and wildlife viewing opportunities, while the experienced crew ensures your safety and positions the vessel perfectly for those coveted turtle moments.

Turtles and You Honolulu welcomes guests ages 2 and older, though the tour isn't wheelchair accessible. Come dressed in swimwear with reef-safe sunscreen, towels, and motion sickness medication if needed. Check in 30 minutes early at Kewalo Basin Harbor—and remember, no shoes allowed onboard for safety. Starting from $99 per person, this unforgettable experience requires 48-hour advance cancellation for full refunds and has limited storage space, so pack light for your Hawaiian marine adventure.
