What are people saying about Waikiki Beach
Franz_W, Apr 2023
Aloha Waikiki from the Sea
This trip gives you a beautiful view on Waikiki Beach from the seaside with the Diamond Head but especially what's going on under water, a shipwreck and marine life like turtles and lots of fish. Stunning trip with a very nice She-Captain, very professional in safety briefing and handling of the boat together with her First Mate Justin who lead us by interphone throught the story of Hawaii.
Jaimi_T, Sep 2023
Lovely time on the water
This was a lovely evening in the water. The boat was clean and the crew was friendly. It's a simple ride at sunset toward Diamondhead. They provide water and ice in a cooler for any drinks passengers bring. There is seating for 10 on second level and more seating in main part of boat. Passengers are allowed to stand on bow.
Rosario_M, Sep 2023
Well driven vessel
The ship was very well cleaned. The crew and driver were professionals and had a delightful demeanor, and the ship was driven masterfully in a rough sea. 1 1/2 hours is a perfect amount of time it was a great value.
Nathaniel_C, Sep 2023
Great, Easy Experience
This is a great way to go out from Waikiki Beach and see tropical fish and sea turtles from Turtle Canyon for those not wishing to get wet and/or avoid getting sunburned (the boat is covered).
