Kauai ToursWaikiki Glass Bottom Boat Cruise
Overview
Experience the beauty of Oʻahu South Shore as we sail toward Lēʻahi (Diamond Head) aboard the spacious Haleiwa Queen, a 50ft power catamaran, with 49 seats, an onboard restroom, a shaded deck, and complimentary beverages. Learn the history of Waikīkī where chiefs and commoners once lived. The local born and raised crew members will share stories of their ancestors and experiences about growing up in this magical place, Hawaiʻi. Waterman their entire lives, your crew will share their passion, love, and respect for the ocean. You will explore the lively and vibrant ocean floor through the magnified glass bottom view ports. Enjoy the clear view of the Pacific Ocean as we cruise over live coral reefs, encounter tropical fish, honu (sea turtles), eel, reef sharks, dolphins, and humpback whales during season.
PLEASE NOTE: The crew will make every effort possible to allow guests to see marine life, but since there are conditions beyond control, we CANNOT guarantee any animal sightings.
