Oahu Water Sports

The crew took excellent care of us. The small and private experience provided a more intimate setting, allowing for more personalized attention. We had the opportunity to see dolphins and even go snorkeling. The experience was highly customizable, making it an ideal choice for those seeking a private and memorable adventure.

Mario was very knowledgeable and friendly. Getting to ocean was fun on electric bikes. Kayaking was great. It was a beautiful day.

Upon booking, I noticed a disclaimer that said:“Parents/Guardians, please note: while we are an all-ages experience, guests are advised that we are a bar with what can be a party atmosphere. We are not responsible for the actions or expressions of other guests on board.”As a parent traveling with four kids, I was a little concerned at first. However, I decided to go ahead with the booking because of the cost, free drinks snorkeling activities offered, and I’m so glad I did.Our excursion was very relaxed. There were no rowdy guests or inappropriate behavior, and the crew didn’t encourage any kind of party atmosphere. If you’re worried like I was, I’d say it’s simply a general disclaimer rather than a reflection of what you’ll necessarily experience.One thing I was especially glad about was not booking one of the large catamaran cruises with the inflatable water slides and trampoline. Before the trip, I had seriously considered it because it looked like a lot of fun. But while we were out on the ocean, I actually saw one of those boats, and it looked absolutely packed—there had to be close to a hundred people on board.In that moment, I knew I had made the right decision. The smaller catamaran we chose was much more peaceful, with fewer people, plenty of room to relax, and a laid-back atmosphere. Instead of feeling crowded or rushed, we were able to truly enjoy the beautiful Hawaiian scenery, the ocean breeze, and the experience itself. For me, that’s exactly what a vacation should be—relaxing, not hectic—and I’m so thankful we chose the quieter option.My kids all said this was one of their favorite activities of our trip! The snorkeling equipment was clean and sanitized, and the crew did an excellent job making sure everyone felt safe and comfortable. They even gave a thorough demonstration for beginners, which made the experience much less intimidating.We were lucky enough to see sea turtles, big fish, and coral reefs while snorkeling. But surprisingly, my kids’ favorite part wasn’t even the snorkeling—it was relaxing on the catamaran’s netting while the waves splashed up underneath them. They said it felt like an ocean water park ride and couldn’t stop laughing the entire time.This excursion created some of our favorite family memories from Hawaii, and I would absolutely recommend it to other families.

It was so much fun!! Amazing crew and we saw beautiful wildlife!! So crazy to see turtles and fish up close. We were also able to jump off the boat into the ocean. Unreal experience! 10/10

Diving off of the western shore of Oahu with Dive Oahu is the way to go. Conditions were perfect. Dive guide Jeff was amazing! Boat captain Adam was also amazing. Definitely would book this charter again if we had more time to dive before we leave. If you are looking for a great experience, use Dive Oahu.

Our cruise was absolutely amazing! Captain and first mate Lyndsey went above and beyond to make our snorkel trip an experience of a lifetime! We saw so many fish and turtles! Lunch was delicious and the boat was beautiful! Would definitely highly recommend!! Thanks guys for helping us make lasting memories for our 40th anniversary!!

10/10 Stars - Uncle Savage is an absolute legend! If you want your kids to learn to surf safely while having the time of their lives, Uncle Savage is the instructor to book. He recently taught my teenage boys, who were total beginners, and the experience was a perfect 10 out of 10. His coaching in the surf was masterful. Uncle Savage coached and gave the boys instant positive feedback on their techniques. He knew exactly how to read the swells and positioned them perfectly for success. Thanks to his patience and guidance, both of my boys were standing up and riding waves way sooner than we ever expected. The pure joy and confidence he instilled in them was incredible to watch. By the end of the lesson, my boys weren’t just stoked on surfing—they were already asking when they could go back out to surf. He is a phenomenal teacher and an all-around amazing human. We definitely recommend booking with Uncle Savage!

So customized. Great experience. Captain and crew were perfect in the sense that the did theor job and we had quality family time. Pitty we could not snorkel due to climate. But we sailed woth music. Unforgetable

I have dozens and dozens of dives with Dive Oahu at this point! The crew is always kind and knowledgeable and funny, the boats are lovely, the dives are amazing. I can't recommend them enough!

Very good experience with Erik, Zac, and Isaiah. They made the trip so much fun and were very informative about the ocean and safety of all the gear. We saw turtles, dolphins, and fish. The drinks were amazing and the view was even better!

My 11 year old son and I met Savage on our morning walk from our hotel for breakfast. From the first meeting we knew he would be the best person to teach us to surf. We booked a 90 min lesson and it was better than we could imagine. Savage guaranteed us we would get up on the board and he didn’t disappoint. My son was up on his first attempt and I may have taken a time or two longer but I got there and felt the surfing rush. It was awesome. Cheeeeee Hoooo! mahalo.

Such a great time, the yacht was perfect & the staff was very friendly. Would definitely book again !

Excellent experience. Kyle was our guide. He was very sensitive to our needs. He seemed knowledgeable on local history, culture species of fish, birds,etc. We really enjoyed the experience and would recommend it to anyone. We did the half day excursion.

Wengotnpicked up with a Raptor F150 at our Hotel. After a quick ride over the beautiful island of Oahu we arrived at the beach. It was very good organized and with an experienced and friendly guide. We only can recommend this organization and this trip. We even saw a seal sunbathing on the little island which was a beautiful bonus.

Wonderful time had by all. Staff and management equally kind and professional. Entire experience was great no negatives.

Captain Mark & First Mate Marco gave us an experience of a lifetime. Our party had overlapped activities, and they thankfully accommodated us to fit this experience into our schedule. It's always been my dream to rent a boat to go swimming, and they made it come true. Not to mention, their patience with our children was incredible. My nephew wanted to fish and we almost caught a huge fish. If not for the fact that we had reservations for another experience, we would've extended our time happily.If you're looking for an intimate excursion with friendly experts, look no further.Thank you, MANA, Capt. Mark and Marco for memories we'll cherish for a lifetime.
