Amazing Day with Dolphins! - Unbelievably gorgeous scenery, plentiful, playful dolphins jumping and swimming and twirling through the air! Whole crew was fantastic, and Dave captured photos throughout the journey so that we could stash our phones and be fully immersed in the experience. Highly recommend!

Swim with wild dolphins! - We had a great time on this excursion. The crew was kind and informative. They fitted us and had us ready to jump in the water when we saw dolphins. Seeing wild dolphins swim near by was awesome. We got in the water with them 3x. You have to pay attention once you jump in on where to look, the dolphins are quick! They also took us to a spot to snorkel with pretty fish and sea turtles. We enjoyed cold water and snacks and a pork and rice lunch. Our family had a great time. A photographer is also on board, which was nice. Of course you have to pay for them, worth it so you can enjoy being in the moment.

The time of a lifetime! 50 to 100 Dolphins! - This was one of the best experiences I've ever had! The crew was amazing and was so friendly which made the whole experience that much better. We saw a pod of dolphins probably 50 to 100 swimming together and got to swim with them, then saw about 5 sea turtles and got to swim right next to them! It was incredible! Such an amazing experience. Definitely recommend that you use these guys! Also, just warning, take motion sickness pills before if you get sick on a boat.. the ocean water can get choppy. But otherwise it was the time of a lifetime!! So worth it!!

Swim snorkel west coast oahu - Enjoyable experience. Picked up and dropped off from hotel in Waikiki Beach. Catamaran was small and crowded but crew very friendly and helpful! Felt safe and appreciated having them in water to guide and support snorkeling. We saw dolphins, sea turtle , a small octopus, and lots of tropical fish. Lunch was tasty. Unfortunately photographer was sick and didn’t work this day so didn’t get any pics in water.

Awful Experience, Disgusting Crew Conduct – Verbal Harassment and Physical Aggression - I joined the dolphin swimming tour with Indigo Ocean Hawaii, and unfortunately, it was one of the most uncomfortable and upsetting experiences I’ve had while traveling. One of the crew members repeatedly humiliated female guests with inappropriate, degrading comments — all under the excuse of “just joking.” It wasn’t light teasing — it was targeted, uncomfortable, and made the entire experience feel hostile and disrespectful. Even more disturbing, he physically pushed me and my friend underwater and held us there for several seconds. This was not playful; it was frightening and completely unacceptable. What’s worse is that no one else on the crew stepped in to stop or correct his behavior. There was a clear lack of accountability and concern for guest safety and comfort. I do not recommend this tour, especially for women, unless the company takes serious action to address the crew’s behavior and create a respectful and safe environment for all guests.
