Awesome experience

It was mine and my family’s first time doing this. It definitely was an experience of a lifetime as we saw quite a bit of sharks.

Exciting and scary!

A very wild and thrilling activity! We wasn’t sure if brave enough but really glad we did it. Exhilarating but also able to feel comfortable and safe while experiencing the 6 or 8 sharks circling us. We had 8 people in the cage together for maximum dive time and felt there was plenty of space.

Operator response

We are so appreciative of your thoughtful review. We hope to see you out on the water with us again in the future.

You will get sea sick....

You will get sea sick. Even first boat out in the morning. If watching other people get sick makes you sick even worse. We learned after that 80% of people get sick. I may never be able to go on a boat again. It’s unfortunate because the sharks are amazing and the experience is cool but it’s impossible to enjoy.

Operator response

Aloha, Thank you for your comments. I had a chance to chat with our Captain and from what he said is that they had to keep moving the boat to get a clear spot for better visibility. We are sorry that you got a little seasick but I am glad to hear that you got to see some sharks. I truly hope to have you back on tour with us on better conditions.  Mahalo, Joe Pavsek

Sharks!

Very cool experience. You get about 20 minutes of time in the the cage. We saw about 6 to 10 different sharks on the day that we went. It is pretty exhilarating at first, but once you are in the water, you are good to go. Overall, it is good for the money.

Operator response

Thank you for the review!!!

Lots of sharks up close....

Lots of sharks up close. Bring your own go pro for close up videos. Also nothing provided but snorkel gear. Quick trip so likely don’t need food. Bring water.

Operator response

Mahalo for your review and 5 stars. We sure hope to see you all next time.

Once-in-a-lifetime experience!

This tour is definitely a must do when visiting the North Shore of Oahu! My family and I had an incredible time and were truly blown away by the experience. Getting that close to sharks in the wild was absolutely a once-in-a-lifetime experience and a huge highlight of our trip. Our crew, Matty and Mel, were extremely professional, friendly and informative! We felt very safe the entire time we were on the boat and in the cage. Overall, an incredible tour and one we will certainly do again on our next trip to Oahu!

Operator response

10/10 Experience

Such a wonderful experience!! Our captain and crew were very knowledgeable and nice!! Very informative about the Galapagos sharks we were diving with. 10/10 would definitely book again. We went at 7:00 am and I recommend doing this early in the morning when it isn’t too hot out yet and the sun isn’t too strong, plus you still have the entire day when you’re done diving with the sharks. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience !!!
