This Ain't SeaWorld, it's The Real World...

Our guided snorkeling tours are listed as #2 in National Geographic's "Top 10 Trips with a Splash"

The Call of the Wild


Our biologist crew are committed to integrity and quality, leading in environmental stewardship and creating unforgettable memories for our guests.

Morning cruises on the Waianae coastline focus on whales, turtle reefs, and dolphin encounters. Small groups optimize the experience for both guests and ocean life. Encounter whales, green sea turtles and dolphin pods enjoying aquamarine waters, all year long. Snorkel gear, drinks and snacks included. Swimming with wild dolphins is much safer than in a captive setting.

Or, discover 'Hidden Hawaii' departing from our Honolulu / Waikiki location for half day, full day, or longer adventures, Travel the migratory paths of whales and pelagic seabirds. Experience miles of white-sand beaches, snorkel the most extensive coral reef systems in the state, swim with wild dolphins and indulge in dramatic seascapes far off the well-trod tourist path
