Grand Circle Island Tour With Snorkeling

After guiding visitors around our island, I can tell you this grand circle island tour with snorkeling delivers Oahu's absolute best in a single unforgettable day. You'll spend 10 hours exploring the complete island in our comfortable, air-conditioned mini coaches-small groups mean you get the personalized attention you deserve.

We start with Oahu's iconic landmarks: Diamond Head Lookout at the stunning Amelia Earhart lookout overlooking blue ocean waters, then the dramatic Halona Blowhole rock formation. Feel the power of Sandy Beach's shore breaks on fine sand, continue to Makapuu Beach at Oahu's easternmost point rising 647 feet above sea level, and soak in Waimanalo's gorgeous turquoise waters and white sand. We'll also visit Chinaman Heat (Mokolii), known among locals for its distinctive shape. The breathtaking Byodo-In Temple-a replica of a 950-year-old Japanese temple-never fails to amaze.

The North Shore is where things get exciting. We hit legendary surf spots including Sunset Beach, the famous Banzai Pipeline with its barreling waves, and Waimea Valley, home to 60-foot winter waves and the Eddie Aikau Competition. Your snorkeling session at a popular local North Shore beach often rewards you with sea turtle encounters, followed by lunch at one of our favorite local spots.

Historic Haleiwa Town showcases the iconic Rainbow Bridge, while roadside fruit stands offer the freshest tropical produce. The North Shore Macadamia Nut Farm is a hidden gem most tourists miss.

We wrap up at the world-famous Dole Plantation for unique souvenirs and Oahu's first coffee visitor farm, where Hawaiian coffees are roasted daily on-site.
