I love dolphins - My family had an amazing time seeing all type of marine life. We got to see Hawaiian spinner dolphins within 5 minutes of leaving the harbor. Once we were out a little further we got two opportunities to see and swim near some spotted dolphins. The kids were so excited to go by the beach where the live action Moana was filmed and see turtles and fish. Throughout the whole trip the crew was awesome and engaging they really amplify the experience.

Beautiful life long memories - Easy pick up from near by hotel. Great tour guides. Everyone was happy and excited. Great energy. We saw the Spinner Dolphins. We didn’t get to see other dolphins on this trip but we did get to swim with the False Killer Whales, swim with the turtles and an array of fish. A beautiful experience.

An amazing snorkel experience! - We had the most amazing time with the Indigo Ocean team! They picked us up from our hotel in Waikiki and then shuttled us out to West Oahu, which was so nice as we didn’t have a car. Then we got to have a nice long boat and snorkel experience! We were lucky enough to get in the water twice with pilot whales, which the crew told us is super rare. We also saw Pygmy killer whales and spinner dolphins from the boat as we were driving. After swimming with the whales, we went to a snorkel spot to view fish and some sea turtles. The crew also fed us a delicious kalua pork lunch. The crew were all so friendly and really facilitated an ohana experience with all the guests. We all felt like a family at the end! Thanks to Steve, Julie, JB, and the entire team at Indigo Ocean Hawaii!

Fun swim - This crew was really awesome. These guys know the area and know how to make the group into a family. We swam together as a family. Everyone on the boat made new friends. We saw two groups of dolphins and then turtles

Saw dolphins and turtles up close. Extra $70 for their pictures - You will end up speeding ahead of the path of dolphins and jumping in the water just before they pass. You will likely see them pass by 3 times but you must pay attention and some miss it. In total, you will see dolphins for like 2 minutes and spend most time chasing them…not that it is a bad experience, just have those expectations. Afterwards you will swim up close and personal with sea turtles. Overall great experience
