Please meet us at our boat "Lokahi" located in Kewalo Basin Boat Harbor, Slip B-1. Complete your online waiver prior to arrival and arrive at the boat 15 minutes early as the boat departs at your scheduled time. Parking is limited so we suggest arriving extra early to find a spot or take a taxi.
Go beyond the typical Turtle Canyon snorkel tour on this 2.5-hour Waikiki coral reef and waterslide adventure. Begin with a scenic cruise along the Waikiki coastline toward Diamond Head, taking in sweeping ocean views while watching for sea turtles, spinner dolphins, and seasonal humpback whales.
Then head to a coral reef snorkeling site away from the crowded Turtle Canyon area. Snorkel among tropical fish, coral reef habitat, and Hawaiian marine life—including sea turtles, which are seen on most trips. When you’re ready for more fun, take a ride down our 20-foot waterslide, bounce on the water trampoline, or relax on the floating lily pad.
With a maximum of 40 guests, you’ll have more room to enjoy the boat and the water. Snorkel gear, flotation equipment, snacks, and unlimited soft drinks are included.
It’s a great choice for families, couples, and groups looking for a Waikiki ocean experience that combines scenic cruising, snorkeling, sea turtles, and plenty of fun on the water.

Great family activity for all ages!
This was a great family activity! We had family arranging in age 5 to 80 years of age, and everyone had a great time. The staff was personable and friendly. We saw sea turtles, and all sorts of other fish. Even the few who didn’t get in the water had a great time. We would definitely recommend!
