Tour Description

Go snorkeling with sharks in the safety of a steel cage. Go look these fierce looking creatures right in the face on this North Shore Oahu tour. We leave from the historic harbor of Haleiwa and head out for a cruise of the bay where we know sharks congregate. At certain times of year, we will be able to spot whales and other types of marine animals as well as bigger sharks that pass through these waters.

Our steel cage is moored about 3 miles off-shore and sharks naturally approach it due to the crab boats that often drive by, (easy food pickings for them). Visibility is sometimes over 150 feet so you will have the clearest water experience, watching these predators come up from the deep.
