Best snorkeling experience

This was by far the best snorkeling experience we've ever had! We saw so many colorful fish and sea turtles.

My three kids are strong swimmers, but I can't swim and have always been afraid of the water. Whether in Cancun, Big Island, or elsewhere, nonswimmers are usually ignored or left behindโ€”even after paying. But Captain Bruce was completely different. He guided me one-on-one out to the deep-water coral reef and took me on a full tour. For the first time, I felt completely safe and not scared at all. The underwater world was absolutely breathtaking! A huge thank you to Captain Bruce and the crew for making this so special.

Thank you for such a heartfelt review. Hearing that the underwater world felt breathtaking and that you felt safe out there means a great deal to us. The level of individual support our crew can offer depends on the conditions and the group on any given day, so we are especially glad it worked out the way it did for you. Colorful fish and sea turtles with your three kids sounds like a wonderful day for the whole family!

For guests who are less confident in the water, our private cruise is one option worth considering. With one captain for up to six guests, there is more room to make the most of everything the ocean has to offer.

Thank you for taking the time to share this, and we hope to welcome you all back again soon.

Sandbar Tour

Had an amazing time! The crew did an amazing job, very professional and informational. They were also very keen to detail, making sure everyone is safe. One of the best activity, if not the best that we did during our vacation! Highly recommend!

Had a great experience

We were very much satisfied in despite of the rain before the start of the cruise.
The staff were very professional and friendly. The equipment and environment was very good.
Would like to join again if we have a chance to visit Hawaii.

mr

The sea is beautiful. Staff are friendly and full of service spirit. Watched many fishes but only regret was I couldnโ€™t see turtles, but my wife did many by captainโ€™s leading.
Anybody should try.

Highly Recommended!

Booked through Captain Bruce. I chose the first tour at 9am and was picked up from Hilton Hawaiian Village at 730am. The tour included snacks such as spam musubi, chips, drinks, water, coffee, tea and hot chocolate.

Their guides were so helpful, so kind. They even volunteered to take pic or videos of us.

I told my guide, Casey, that I didn't know how to swim. He said it was ok and that he would guide me though the entire thing. Everyone was required to wear a life vest while snorkeling. He guided me though my snorkeling, pointing out the fishes and turtles ๐Ÿข so I wouldn't miss them. There were many times water went into my mask. He lifted my mask for me to remove the water.

From the sandbar, I was able to view Kualoa Ranch, the place where Jurrasic Park, Jumanji and Lost were filmed. I also saw Gilligan's Island.

It was such a memorable experience and I will surely do it again.

If you're interested in going to the sandbar, check the tide chart.

I went when it was supposedly low tide but the water was up to my chest. It didn't stop me from having fun.
