Here's what makes this semi-private turtle snorkel & catamaran cruise Honolulu experience truly special – you'll join just 5 other passengers for an intimate 2-hour ocean adventure that feels worlds away from crowded tourist boats. Departing from Kewalo Basin Harbor near Waikiki, your deluxe power catamaran heads straight for Turtle Canyon, where Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles glide through crystal-clear waters alongside vibrant tropical fish you won't find anywhere else.
As we cruise along Oahu's stunning south shore, our expert guides get you comfortable with top-quality snorkel gear while sharing insider knowledge about the marine life you're about to encounter. The protected waters here create perfect snorkeling conditions – no battling rough waves or strong currents. Once we reach the offshore reef at Turtle Canyon, you'll slip into an underwater world teeming with life while safety divers keep watch and crew members share fascinating stories about local wildlife and Hawaiian culture.
Keep your eyes peeled during the cruise for spinner dolphin pods, and from January through March, migrating Humpback whales often steal the show. We're so confident you'll spot turtles that if you don't see any, your next trip is completely free. The catamaran itself is perfectly equipped with shaded and sunny seating areas, an iced cooler, marine restroom, fresh water shower, and complimentary drinks including bottled water, local juices, and sodas.
This semi-private turtle snorkel & catamaran cruise Honolulu adventure welcomes swimmers aged 5-70 who are in good health.
