Swim with Hawaii's Sacred Sea Turtles

There are experiences that stay with you long after your tan fades, and meeting a Hawaiian green sea turtle in the open ocean is one of them. Our Turtle Canyon Snorkel Tour takes you directly to one of Oahu's most cherished underwater destinations โ€” a lush reef ecosystem just a short boat ride from the Waikiki shoreline where honu (sea turtles) gather in remarkable numbers.

Aboard the spacious Ariya II, you'll sail out of Kewalo Basin Harbor past panoramic views of Diamond Head Crater before anchoring at the reef. Our CPR-certified crew will suit you up with quality snorkel gear and guide you into the warm, crystal-clear Pacific, where you'll drift alongside graceful sea turtles, vivid reef fish, and the colorful coral formations they call home.

Back on deck, the Aloha Spirit continues with a complimentary snack, a live Hawaiian chant and Hula performance, and a unique polynesian-style turtle tattoo to commemorate the day. This is Waikiki snorkeling at its absolute finest.
