West Side Dolphin Adventure & Activity Boat

Location: West Oahu, Oahu

Tour Highlights

Splash into a full day of West Oʻahu adventure as wild dolphins cruise beside the boat, turtles drift through clear reef water, and the whole family dives into kayaks, SUPs, and a thrilling ocean slide. It’s a playful, hands-on marine life experience that mixes learning, laughter, and nonstop fun on the open water.

  • Swim with or watch wild dolphin pods from the spacious deck of the Poseidon Catamaran
  • Snorkel vibrant reef gardens home to turtles and colorful tropical fish
  • Glide over calm water on kayaks, SUP boards, and a giant floating mat
  • Feel the adrenaline of the 21ft water slide plunging straight into the Pacific
  • Enjoy a fresh lunch wrap and pineapple while cruising the Waiʻanae coast

Quick Local Tip: When you’re snorkeling the West Oʻahu reef, check beneath the coral overhangs. Turtles often nap or feed in those shaded pockets, and you’ll spot honu (turtles) there that most people never notice.

What to Expect

Board the Poseidon Catamaran at Waiʻanae Small Boat Harbor, where your crew welcomes you aboard with a traditional Hawaiian oli before cruising Oʻahu's beautiful Leeward Coast. 

Early morning tours include a guided in-water dolphin swim (conditions permitting), while late morning and afternoon tours focus on dolphin watching from the comfort of the catamaran.

As the catamaran cruises the clear Pacific waters, keep watch for wild dolphins that frequent this coastline. After the dolphin portion of the tour, continue to a secluded snorkeling reef where colorful coral gardens, tropical fish, and Hawaiian green sea turtles await beneath the surface. With snorkel gear provided and crew members nearby for guidance, you'll have plenty of time to explore before returning to the boat.

Back onboard, the fun continues with kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, a floating ocean mat, and the catamaran's onboard water slide. Enjoy a freshly prepared lunch with island pineapple as you relax on the return cruise to Waiʻanae Harbor, keeping an eye out for humpback whales during the winter migration season.
