A Fantastic Family Outing

From kids to adults, there are fun activities everyone can enjoy. Our comfortable 55-foot vessel has restrooms onboard and many places to watch the view as we cruise along the shore, watching for dolphins. Once we reach our snorkeling spots, you can snorkel in the pristine waters to explore a vibrant underwater world filled with diverse sea life. In addition to snorkeling, you can paddle our kayaks and try your hand at stand-up paddleboarding. And you need to hop on our 20-foot water slide - “Slide for Life!” (with each slide, you’ll feel a little bit younger. Like a time machine!) Or, if you prefer, just kick back on the boat and soak up the sun!

Description

This tour provides an unforgettable experience with dolphins on the stunning west side of Oahu, allowing you to observe them in their natural Hawaiian habitat from the boat.

Our crew’ll also treat you to an authentic Hawaiian hula performance while enjoying a complimentary lunch.

We’ll kick off our boat ride by reciting a Hawaiian chant called “E Hō Mai.” This prayer is offered to the gods of the sea, asking for a safe journey and an abundance of wildlife. Embodying the Aloha Spirit, our “locally grown” crew members are certified in CPR, First Aid, and Lifesaving techniques. They are also talented hula dancers!

Itinerary

With transportation from Waikiki included, our brand-new 55-foot power boat departs from Oahu's beautiful west coast, the natural habitat of Hawaii’s wild dolphins, framed by the stunning Waianae Mountain Range.
We’ll start with an authentic Hawaiian chant “E Ho Mai,” inviting good fortune for our journey. Then, we’ll cruise the West Side in search of the acrobatic Hawaiian Spinner Dolphins, famous for their playful spins and long snouts.
After observing the dolphins, we’ll head to the area’s top snorkeling spot, Makua Beach. Here, you can explore a vibrant underwater world filled with diverse sea life, including “Honu” (sea turtles), colorful fish, occasionally manta rays, whales, and monk seals.
Our crew will invite you to enjoy water activities like 20-foot water slide kayaking and paddle boarding, or you can simply relax on our two-deck boat or wraparound bow seating while soaking up the sun. The choice is yours!
On the return trip, our talented crew will entertain you with authentic hula dances; they might even teach you a dance!
Before we return to the harbor, you’ll be treated to complimentary lunches and water to recharge. Choose from Turkey Sandwich, Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich, or Spinach Wrap. Additional drinks and adult beverages will be available for purchase!

Cancellation

Your purchase is 100% refundable, provided you cancel your reservation at least 24 hours (for group charters) or 72 hours (for private charters) before its check-in time. The company reserves the right to cancel or reschedule tours at any time due to weather or capacity.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the age limit?

We recommend that only guests who are 2 years and older join our tours.
Will I get motion sickness?

If you are especially susceptible to motion sickness, it’s a good idea to take precautionary anti-motion sickness medication.
Can I touch the dolphins and turtles?

No. Touching marine life and coral is illegal by Hawaii state law. Contact with human skin can make dolphins and sea turtles more susceptible to disease and cause them stress. But the animals often come close by our guests, and simply being in their presence is incredible.
Is there a restroom on the boat?

There is a public restroom in the harbor, and there are two full restrooms on board the boat.
