Join a Waikiki turtle snorkel sail for a relaxed ocean adventure, combining reef exploration, Hawaiian green sea turtle spotting, and comfortable sailing aboard a spacious catamaran.

Getting started

Head to the departure point listed on your booking, such as Kewalo Basin Harbor, and check in with the crew before boarding. Once aboard, settle into the comfortable catamaran and listen to the safety and snorkeling instructions before sailing toward the reef areas off Waikiki.

What to expect

Waikiki snorkel sails

Cruise along Oahu’s south shore before stopping at reef waters off Waikiki, where you can get in the ocean and explore underwater habitats with the support of an experienced crew.

Features

Turtle spotting: Keep an eye out for Hawaiian green sea turtles gliding through the reef, one of the highlights of snorkeling in Waikiki's coastal waters.

Reef exploration: Swim above shallow reef habitats where you may encounter tropical fish, coral formations, and other marine life native to Oahu’s waters.

Guided snorkeling: Get support from the professional crew throughout your water experience, with assistance available to help you feel more comfortable in the ocean.

Snorkel equipment: Use the snorkeling equipment provided for the experience, so you can focus on exploring the reef rather than arranging your own gear.

Ocean views: Between snorkeling sessions, enjoy a different perspective of Waikiki from the water, with views of the coastline and surrounding Oahu landscape.

Relaxed boat time: Return to the catamaran after your swim and enjoy the spacious deck, making it easy to alternate between active reef exploration and laid-back time at sea.

Choose the 3-hour snorkel sail with lunch option if you want to make the outing more complete, with an onboard meal included as part of the selected package. After your snorkeling session and time on the water, the crew sails back toward the departure harbor. Disembark with the rest of your group and continue exploring Waikiki or the rest of Oahu at your own pace.

What to bring

Carry a valid photo ID with you for check-in and any applicable onboard requirements.

Bring comfortable swimwear and a towel, as the experience includes time in the water.

Apply reef-safe sunscreen before boarding and reapply as needed during the day.

What’s not allowed

Full-face snorkel masks are not permitted during the snorkeling activity; standard snorkel equipment should be used instead.

Accessibility

Due to the physical nature of entering and participating in the water, snorkeling is not recommended for guests with limited mobility.

Participants must be able to swim at a basic level to take part in the snorkeling portion.

Additional information

The experience is family-friendly, although age requirements may vary depending on the tour option you select.
