They were great! Very friendly and accommodating, and we saw both turtles and whales on our snorkel outing!

We had a great time! It's been 38 years since I last went snorkeling but once I got into the water and got used to the coast guard approved inflatable vest (which I deflated so I could actually dive) it was like I had never stopped, minus the running out of breath and getting used to fins again. While the recent storms reduced the visibility to about 10 feet, the staff was very helpful in bringing the fish to us by using potato chip crumbs to get them to come close, and every time a turtle surfaced they herded us towards it so we could see the turtle! It was a good swim, the equipment was clean and in new condition, and they did their best to make sure we had a good time. With visibility being a bust the captain on our way back found a pod of Hawaiian Spinner Dolphins who swam in and out of our wake, great bonus experience going above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience! Would go again! read more

Charter Oahu - Hawaiian Spinner Dolphins! - Boat Charters Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Hubby and I had a great time on the sunset cruise. It was an all female crew which I loved and I loved how compassionate and kind they were once they realized I was legally blind based on cane. Truly made for a great time. The ladies understood how to help me board on and off the boat which I greatly appreciated. They offered light snacks and beverages. Alcohol was BYO. The timing was great and the ride was amazing. You can see the coast of Waikiki and Diamond head and on the way back to see actual sunset was gorgeous. They offer to take pictures of your couple and can move about the boat was nice. When you get to pier B, look for their trailer and hang out by it. Someone will be around to provide a we code to submit waiver before boarding and you will have to take shoes off so come in sandals for easier time. Enjoy the ride, the company and the view. read more

we loved our excursion! The crew of Aleyia,Lily and Bain was amazing. saw so many turtles and swam right by some. They were everywhere. we held Sea Urchins, saw two big Rays and had so much fun. Very careful with us and informative. I'm now 72 and they made sure we were safely off and on the craft. Parrot fish, Sargeants and Trigger fish just to name a few. So fun to swim in schools of beautiful fish! Thank you, crew! read more

The ladies knew their stuff; from safety to having juice & chips onboard. We felt comfortable getting in the water to actually snorkel when we have never done it before. read more

Had an amazing experience with the crew of Snorkel 2! The staff was very helpful and kind, and was even willing to lend a hand when my friend felt seasick! They also did an amazing job at showing us all the cool spots with the turtles and the reefs! The group was small, so it was not too crowded ( expect for when all the other charter boats came on, but that could not be controlled by our crew!) Highly recommend this experience!!' read more

My wife and I enjoyed the boat ride, the nighttime city skyline view from the ocean and exciting fireworks display! When you get in the boat, head straight up the ladder if you prefer to be you higher. We were on the first level. Before you leave the dock, watch at read of the boat for ox Jelyfish and other fishes. Its a possibility you'll see other fish in the lights behind the boat as well, on the ocean. They're drawn to the light. THANK YOU, OAHUA CHARTERS! read more

What a wonderful time we had with Chris and Jordan as our captain and crew. We were on a private charter for four of us and it was lovely. We just wanted to cruise along the coast to Diamond Head and that's what we did. Along the way Chris and Jordan pointed out landmarks, sea life, and other things of interest. This private tour did not disappoint and was a perfect way to enjoy Waikiki from a boat. Thank you, Charter Oahu! read more

We booked a turtle snorkeling cruise with Charter Oahu and had such a wonderful time! I went with my husband, my sister-in-law and her fiancé, and my in-laws, and it ended up being one of the highlights of our trip. We saw so many turtles, both in the water swimming and ones that came up for air. The crew made everything fun, safe, and easy. My father-in-law, who is older, was even able to get into the water for a little bit thanks to the crew helping him in and out. My mother-in-law chose to stay on the boat, and the crew checked on her often, making sure she was comfortable and still part of the experience. They also shared tons of fun facts about the turtles and the different fish we spotted, which made the cruise even more enjoyable. Overall, we had a fantastic time and would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Oahu! read more

I was scared to snorkel in the middle of the ocean but Alex, Kelsey and Meg put me at ease. Meg was our caption, she's badass, she is so nice and knowledgeable about everything. Alex was the nicest person I've ever met. She is so outgoing and sweet. She helped me so much in and out of the water. Kelsey is an amazing diver and picks up critters off the ocean floor to show you. Both Alex and Kelsey did an amazing job at spotting turtles and telling us to swim their way. We saw about 10 turtles during the hour we were in the water. After we swam, they offered us drinks, chips, and fresh fruit on a cute platter. Definitely recommend booking with charter Oahu for snorkeling. Especially with these 3 women!! read more

First time snorkeling and the ladies who guided us were great! Made us really feel comfortable in the water and made sure to point out the turtles so we wouldn't miss them! I definitely would try snorkeling again next time I come! read more

This was a great experience. The crew of Snorkel 1 was great. Everything about the process from leaving the shore, wearing the equipment, and what to expect in the water was very well explained. We all received juice can when we arrived in the boat, then we were given fresh pineapples and chips as we headed back to shore. The staff was helpful in the water at pointing out where the turtles were. It was cool to look at the ocean bottom and see the various creatures. We also saw several turtles at the top of the water. We were provided with the fins, goggles, and life vest. They also provided a floating noodle for whoever wanted one. It was a great experience. read more

Charter Oahu - Very fun, everyone was nice, on time. 100% recommend. - Boat Charters Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

The staff on our snorkel tour were fun and upbeat, which made the experience enjoyable from the start. The boat ride to the snorkel area took about 10-15 minutes. Keep in mind that most other snorkel charters head to the same spot, so you won't have the area to yourself. We were a little disappointed to only see two turtles, but we did get to swim with plenty of colorful fish, which was still pretty awesome. Snacks were provided--Hawaiian Sun juices and chips--which was a nice touch. They also offered a photo package for $55. We decided to purchase it, and the pictures turned out fun, but if you have a waterproof phone case or a GoPro, you could definitely capture your own shots too. read more

Our January trip was complete after this adventure!! We were 2 moms and 4 kids first timers and staff were kind and very understanding. Fresh pineapples, Hawaiian chips and canned drinks was a plus. We were able to see a double , baby whale, tons of fishes, turtles and dolphins!!! We will definitely recommend them to all our friends and family! we are very pleased and feel lucky above and beyond. read more

Charter Oahu Snorkeling Tour is a great underwater adventure to remember for beginners! We made the online reservation a few days prior. They can accommodate from a small group of 2 to 4, or up to about 25-30 people on this small boat. The adventure starts with a boat ride few miles outside of the Waikiki beach. The boat is managed by a Captain, a boat handler, and also a professional underwater photographer were on hand to guide us along the way. Customer service - 4/5 Friendliness of staff 5/5 (fantastic) Guided Adventure 5/5 Underwater Tour 3/5 (underwhelm) Cleanliness of Boat: 4/5 Value of Money 4/5 As we head back to the dock, we were treated with snacks and drinks. The boat was maintained and well organized, and the professional staff were very friendly and helpful. The underwater adventure was underwhelming as the water was murky and hardly find any fishes or sea turtles around. Parking lot (Pay by Phone) is available at the dock. Overall, I would definitely recommend this snorkeling underwater adventure for beginners when you travel to Oahu or nearby Honolulu. read more
