Kick back on a stable double-hulled pontoon as you cruise past Waikīkī and Diamond Head to Turtle Canyon Reef, then splash into clear water where honu and reef fish glide just below the surface.
Quick Local Tip: Before jumping in, check which way the wind is blowing. It almost always matches the surface current at Turtle Canyons. Swim just a little up-current of the group and you’ll stay right over the main reef; most people don’t realize they’ve floated off the canyon until the turtles disappear from beneath them.
Board your spacious pontoon-style catamaran at Kewalo Basin Harbor and cruise along Waikīkī's beautiful coastline toward Turtle Canyons. As Diamond Head comes into view, enjoy music, ocean breezes, and panoramic coastal scenery while the crew shares local insights about the area's marine life and history before arriving at the reef.
Slip into the clear blue water to snorkel alongside Hawaiian green sea turtles, colorful tropical fish, and vibrant coral formations. Whether you're an experienced snorkeler or trying it for the first time, the crew provides guidance and flotation equipment to help you feel comfortable in the water, while ride-along guests can relax onboard and enjoy the scenery from the deck.
After snorkeling, unwind with light snacks and cold refreshments as the catamaran cruises back toward Kewalo Basin. Keep an eye on the surrounding waters for dolphins or, during the winter months, migrating humpback whales before returning to shore with unforgettable views of Waikīkī's coastline.
