Honolulu turtle review in a shell - What an awesome experience. The crew was friendly, knowledgeable and fun. Our water guide, Annabelle, was very interesting with all her sitings and tidbits of information. Tanner was great at keeping track of all of us. It was a memorable morning. Kudos!

Just ok - Overall the snorkel trip was fine. We saw lots of turtles and the staff was friendly. I did not like their waiver system. I get signing a waiver but having to provide a picture of both your drivers license and your face seems excessive especially when the service they are using is foreign. Not sure what they are doing with the data. I wouldn’t use them again for this reason alone.
