Frolick with dolphins and turtles in Hawaii during this Big Island snorkelling catamaran cruise !
Swim with dolphins and turtles and revel in the pure blue waters off Oahu’s west coast during this snorkelling catamaran cruise departing from Waianae! Known for its relatively dry environment, Oahu’s west coast is the best spot to explore if you’re looking for some guaranteed sunny weather while you snorkel on Oahu!
After getting picked up from your hotel in Waikiki, you will be driven to Waianae Small Boat Harbour on Oahu’s west coast to board the Poseidon. The newly built catamaran, Poseidon, has everything you need to enjoy your time out on the water! Equipped with a 20ft built in water slide, 2 bathrooms, a hot shower, plenty of shade, and a selection of water activity accessories, you will be able to relax in comfort and have unlimited fun in the ocean as you snorkel with dolphins, turtle, and fish off the coast of Oahu!
After meeting the crew and receiving a safety and activity briefing, once you are out on the water, the adventure starts with watching for dolphins! As soon as dolphins are spotted, the boat will stop and you will get multiple opportunities to jump into the water and swim in sight of these beautiful creatures. After the pure magic of swimming in the same waters as wild dolphins, the catamaran will head closer to Oahu’s shores for the snorkelling portion of the boat tour.
While you jump back back in the water to snorkel and play, your guide will point out Hawaii’s diverse array of fish and turtles to you as you explore the reef. You will also be able to enjoy other ocean activities such as a custom built-in slide, paddle boards, kayak, and a floating mat! After hours of snorkelling and swimming, as the boat returns to shore, you will get to indulge in a complimentary lunch to end your snorkelling excursion from Waianae.
