About This Experience
Skip the crowded tourist boats and experience Oahu's North Shore aboard North Shore Catamaran Charters' afternoon snorkel tour & sail Haleiwa (4.7 stars, 381 Google reviews). With a maximum of 16 people on a catamaran licensed for 25, this 3.5-hour sailing adventure offers a small, personal group experience.
Your journey begins with a sail along the North Shore coastline, where Hawaiian green sea turtles can be observed near the shore. You may encounter spinner dolphins as they escort the catamaran, surf the bow wave and put on a show as they play in the wake.
The snorkeling takes place at spots near famous Waimea Bay in clear tropical water. Hawaii's living reefs are host to hundreds of species of fish and other marine life. The snorkeling spots are home to sea turtles, and it is easy to come eye to eye with them while in the water.
Our professional crew provides guidance to ensure everyone has a safe experience. All snorkel equipment is included aboard the Ho'o Nanea, though you're welcome to bring your own gear. After exploring underwater, return to the boat for a refreshing cold drink.
This afternoon snorkel tour & sail Haleiwa welcomes guests of all ages and operates during summer months from Haleiwa. All tours have a 24-hour notice cancellation policy - cancellations with less than 24 hours notice will not receive a refund. Book your small-group snorkeling adventure from $117.
