This fishing activity is the biggest reason for our Hawaiian trip because my 10-year son really wanted to try and was looking forward to it. We booked 2-3 months ago with Sandy's, and it was all good and confirmed then. The day before the fishing day, at 5 pm, and the boat is to leave from the port 6 am next morning, I received an email from Sandy's that our trip is cancelled. The same day in the morning, Sandy's even sent me an email that everything is confirmed and on the schedule. Around 7:30 pm, we called Sandy's multiple times but no one picked up the phone and no one called me back - we sent our phone number via SNS messenger. Voicemail box was full. Our hotel was only 10 minutes away from Sandy's so we decided to drive to Sandy's to ask but we could not find the office. At the port, I asked other fishermen if they knew Sandy's and one fisherman said Sandy's is out from the water for months. Sandy's knew our fishing trip was not going to happen and kept quiet about it until the last day. This place is dishonest and it will ruin your plan. P.S. my experience is just same another reviewer, Steve L.

Four adults and 3 kids - ages 4 - 14 - and we will all remember it as a wonderful day. The weather was perfect and the crew was great - professional, friendly, and very attentive. They brought on board whatever we wanted to eat and drink (we arranged beforehand) and made sure we always had food or drink that we wanted. They let the boys take a turn at the the wheel and spent significant time with the 14-year-old, teaching him about the compass and how to set and maintain a heading, etc. This was a pricey time, but well worth it in my opinion. If we go back to Hawaii, we'll be looking to do this again. :-) Nora

This place is a scam! Run far far away!…read more Set up sailing lessons and certifications with these folks months ago. Came to Hawaii specifically to do these sailing certifications. Spent the last few months studying the books to pass the tests. When the week came for me to go sailing with Honolulu Sailing Company, I kept getting the emails about my upcoming reservation but no details about when to meet the captain at the marina. I tried calling, leaving voicemails, and emailing. No reply. On the day of my first lesson, I went down to the marina, no one around. No one else with boats around their slip knew anything. Tried going over to their office listed on their website and the suite number doesn't exist. Have filed a fraud claim with the credit card company. Time will tell if I get my several thousand dollars back for the lessons. Won't get my time back. Learn from my mistake and avoid this place at all costs.

The sailing was the best experience, they took us out towards diamond head and we had full sails, Ty was a great captain and sailed like a pro. We stopped to snorkel at spot where Johnny was able to guide us over to a area where numerous turtles were hanging out. I'd say about 10 turtles at the floor of the ocean and they came up about every 15 min. Johnny was extremely educated on the sea and told us not only a lot about the sea creatures but about the island and it's history. Great experience!

There's many options for dive schools but I highly recommend Oahu Scuba College to anyone looking for a place where they can grow their skills in an environment that's safe to make mistakes and learn from them. I ended up loving this hobby and that's 100% due to level of training I have received with "The Godfather!". Be a dollar sign somewhere else or gain proper training in a welcoming environment here. Thank you!!!!
