Frequently Asked Questions

I Am Not Comfortable With Using A Mask And Snorkel What Options Are For Me?

We have a number of different items you can use to enjoy the water and the reef below you without getting your head wet. Our sea-view boards allow you to rest comfortably on the board and look through a viewport to see the marine life below.
How Much Time Do We Have To Snorkel

This tour takes about 1 hour to travel down to the snorkeling spot that you will absolutely love. We are moored at that location for just over 2 hours so you have plenty of time to get waterlogged and explore all the top sites.
Can You Swim With Dolphins In Hawaii?

Yes. There are multiple facilities on Oahu and Big Island, Sea Life Park, Kahala Resort and Waikoloa Resort, where visitors can swim and touch dolphins. Wild dolphin snorkel tours are available in some areas. Although it is not technically illegal the harassment of wild dolphins is. This occurs daily on those "swim with wild dolphins" snorkeling tours with enforcement being difficult. We ask that you do not choose to swim with wild dolphins. We do encourage dolphin watch tours.
Will We See Dolphins On This Cruise?

Yes, we guarantee that you will see dolphins or we will book you on another cruise for free. That is how confident we are that you will see dolphins on this tour.
