West O’ahu Sail and Snorkel
About This Experience
Escape the Waikiki crowds and head to Oahu's tranquil western shores for this west o'ahu sail and snorkel adventure that perfectly blends sailing with underwater exploration. This 3-hour ocean experience departs from the peaceful waters near West O'ahu resorts, where you'll discover pristine snorkeling spots away from the tourist masses.
Your journey combines the best of both worlds – gliding across Hawaiian waters under sail, then diving beneath the surface to explore Oahu's vibrant marine life. The tour includes everything you need: snorkeling gear, expert instruction, and a satisfying deli lunch to keep your energy up. Adults 21+ with valid ID can enjoy three alcoholic beverages, while everyone stays refreshed with complimentary drink service throughout the sail.
Here's what makes this west o'ahu sail and snorkel Honolulu experience truly special: on Sundays and Wednesdays, you can pair it with the Palehua Ridge Hike for the ultimate "mauka makai" adventure – Hawaiian for mountain to sea. Imagine hiking Oahu's ridges in the morning, then sailing and snorkeling the same afternoon.
Departing from the less crowded West O'ahu resort area, this tour welcomes everyone from first-time snorkelers to experienced ocean enthusiasts. All equipment and instruction are provided, so you can focus on enjoying the crystal-clear waters and colorful reef life.
Starting from $149 per person (adults $179), this comprehensive package includes sailing, snorkeling, lunch, beverages, and alcoholic drinks for qualifying guests. The 3-hour duration strikes the perfect balance – substantial enough for a memorable ocean adventure, yet short enough to leave time for exploring other parts of the island or simply relaxing at your resort.
