Small group is a MUST, great crew and experience

What a great experience! Small group size is key and allowed for a greater experience. Our group were confident swimmers and we were able to dive down and get awesome photos and videos (extra charge for video and photos and very worth it!!!) Holly, Sarah, and Phil were a great crew and we would highly recommend them!

The Highlight of Our Hawaii Vacation!

This was one of the highlights of our trip! The small group size made the experience feel relaxed and personal, and the guides were incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. We added the video package, and it was absolutely worth it! The guides captured amazing footage and photos of us snorkeling with the sea turtles, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the experience without worrying about taking pictures ourselves. The videos turned out incredible and are the perfect keepsake from an unforgettable day. We were lucky enough to snorkel with several beautiful sea turtles, and to top it all off, we even had a surprise dolphin sighting on the way back! It made an already amazing tour even more special. If you’re looking for a well-organized snorkeling tour with an outstanding crew and incredible wildlife encounters, I highly recommend this trip. We would absolutely do it again!

Awesome snorkeling

This tour exceeded all my expectations. From the moment we got on the boat, the crew was friendly, professional, and clearly passionate about what they do. They made sure everyone felt comfortable and safe, whether you were a first-timer or an experienced snorkeler. The water was crystal clear, and the marine life was absolutely stunning—we saw colorful fish, vibrant coral, and even a few sea turtles gliding by.

Loved it

Great captain and guide. Very professional. I was very happy to be on a smaller boat and not be with a group of 50 other people. Saw turtles and a bunch of reef fish.

Would do this again!

I enjoyed the whole experience, they took their time to get us in the right spot. I loved that we weren’t with a huge crowd and they were able to focus on a small group. Highly recommend.

BEST small group snorkeling trip

Saw so many turtles today and the crew was Absolutely amazing guides. We did videos and photos too, you won't be disappointed. You're in a small group, unlike most of the turtle snorkeling trips in area, only 8 people total on our boat including our 2 guides. This was an amazing experience
