A M A Z I N G Adventure

Everything about this adventure was amazing, the boat, the staff, the beautiful sights. The Salty Crew where amazing. LOL --- Even with getting Sea Sick it was one of the top tours for us and I ended up with the best seat on the boat; in the back watching the waves from the engine and enjoying the sights. I would definitely do this tour again and I highly recommend it. Plenty of water, ginger ale (praise the lord) and other juices, the sandwiches and fruit where fresh. As far as swimming with the spinner dolphins, it's amazing to be in the water near them with respecting their waters and watching their rest cycle. The snorkeling at Captain Cook's monument provides the ability to get in the water and have a snorkel adventure. The boat was an absolute beauty. Mahalo Guys!!

Favorite Hawaiian Shore Excursion

My family of four including a 10 year old and 21year old truly enjoyed this snorkeling trip rating this their favorite shore excursion during our trip to Hawaii. I agreed with them. We were cruising on Pride of America and got off the ship with the first tender. We comfortably made it for the 8am check-in which we originally was nervous about. We have snorkeled all over the Carribean. The stop with the wild dolphins really blew my family away. This was a first and loved it. The second stop brought us to Captain Cook’s monument to see beautiful coral reef and fish. They also brought us to show us sights along the coast. They provided deli sandwiches and fruit which were good quality. Drinks were available throughout. Guides were knowledgeable. Very relaxed atmosphere.
