What an amazing and one of a kind experience! - My family and I signed up with “SWIM WITH DOLPHINS & TURTLES IN WEST OAHU “ by Aloha Ocean Tours. We got to see three different kinds of dolphins, we got to swim in the ocean and we were lucky to see a school of pilot whales (the largest of the dolphin species). We also got to swim and snorkel with turtles. It was fun, informative and got to know the ocean life creatures. Tim was our guide and Shanti was the Capitan. We also got to get educated on Hawaiian culture. I now have a new found respect and appreciation for the culture and how they respect the nature and ALL beings.
The boat also was brand new, clean and very well run.
If you are in O’ahu these are the people you need to start your adventure with. Highly recommended 5 STAR FOR SURE.

Amazing trip!! Can’t wait to go back again !! - This was such an amazing experience that we will never forget!! Ali and Shanti were so helpful and friendly, and throughout the trip they made sure that we were safe and swam along with the younger children to ensure they have the best experience. They also work together to let us know where the dolphins are coming so we can get the best chance to see them in the water. I almost lost my phone when the waterproof pocket connector broke. Ali helped to recover it and I am forever grateful for that! I would definitely recommend this to those looking for a fun and exciting experience.

Great day on the water - What a great day! They were so attentive, making sure we saw lots of dolphins. Not many opportunities to get this type of service and our family of 5 enjoyed the whole boat. Would definitely go back!

National Geographic Underwater Safari - Incredible, mystical experience! Searching for pilot whales, finding them, swimming with them… every step was stunning. Two solid dudes and center console vessel, classic Hawaiian fun! Couldn’t recommend more, just do it, it’s worth it

Amazing dolphin tour! - The dolphin tour was amazing — highly recommend this trip and Aloha Ocean! Once in a lifetime experience to dive into the water with such incredible animals. It was awe-inspiring to be in the water with them and watch them swim by so close. We were very happy we had a small group — a more personalized experience and easier to see the dolphins than with a big group.
The crew was awesome as well! Lauren was our captain and did an excellent job driving the boat and positioning us well to see dolphins. Tim was our guide in the water and throughout the trip — extremely knowledgeable and I felt safe in the water with him there. Safety is very important to me, and I felt like we were in great hands with Lauren and Tim.
The boat was just the right size for our group and super comfortable. The views up and down the coast in the morning light were gorgeous! (Didn’t get any underwater photos, but you can rent a go pro from them if you’d like.)

Great experience!! - Shanti and Tim were awesome. They know, and shared, wonderful tidbits of knowledge that we had no idea about. They really cared that we had a great adventure. It made their days that we swam with lots of dolphins and sea turtles. It was one of the best excursions we have ever taken. Can’t go wrong with these guys!!
