Overview

Go beyond the typical Turtle Canyon snorkel tour on this 2.5-hour Waikiki coral reef and waterslide adventure. Begin with a scenic cruise along the Waikiki coastline toward Diamond Head, taking in sweeping ocean views while watching for sea turtles, spinner dolphins, and seasonal humpback whales.

Then head to a coral reef snorkeling site away from the crowded Turtle Canyon area. Snorkel among tropical fish, coral reef habitat, and Hawaiian marine life—including sea turtles, which are seen on most trips. When you’re ready for more fun, take a ride down our 20-foot waterslide, bounce on the water trampoline, or relax on the floating lily pad.

With a maximum of 40 guests, you’ll have more room to enjoy the boat and the water. Snorkel gear, flotation equipment, snacks, and unlimited soft drinks are included.

It’s a great choice for families, couples, and groups looking for a Waikiki ocean experience that combines scenic cruising, snorkeling, sea turtles, and plenty of fun on the water.

What To Expect

Your adventure begins at Kewalo Basin with a scenic cruise along the Waikiki coastline toward Diamond Head. Relax aboard, enjoy views of Waikiki from the water, and keep watch for sea turtles, spinner dolphins, and humpback whales during whale season.

After the cruise, your captain will take you to a coral reef snorkeling site away from the busy Turtle Canyon area. Following a safety briefing, grab your included snorkel gear and enter the clear Hawaiian waters to explore the reef and look for colorful tropical fish, sea turtles, and other marine life. Sea turtles are seen on most trips, although wildlife sightings can never be guaranteed.

There’s plenty to do beyond snorkeling. Ride down the 20-foot waterslide, bounce on the water trampoline, or relax on the floating lily pad. Guests can enjoy the different water activities throughout the time at the reef.

Snacks and unlimited soft drinks are included aboard before returning to Kewalo Basin.
