Outstanding crew and great adventure! - The crew was amazing, they were very informative and knowledgeable! Never once did I feel that I was ever in any danger from the sharks because the safety divers Ricky and the camerawoman Nicole were extremely attentive to everyone. I will definitely recommend this tour to everyone I know. I can’t wait to come back to Hawaii so that I can go out with them again.

Great Experience - We were on the 9am tour and it was amazing! Their was a Tiger shark and a number Galapagos sharks that came close enough to almost touch (but don't try). Parker, the photographer made sure he got the best shots of us possible with the sharks and literally held my wife's hand to guide her for the best shots. There were three safety crewmembers in the water the whole time to keep an eye out for us as well. Although we were a bit apprehensive about getting in the open water, once we saw how conscientious the staff was, we felt totally safe. It was a great excursion and quite educational.

Phenomenal Experience - The crew was amazing!! Made us feel safe the whole time. Educated us on sharks and conservation. 1000/10 would recommend and do again!! Anytime the sharks came close, the crew immediately got in between. Bucket list item checked ✅️ I've always been fascinated with sharks and this amped that up!! Parker, the photographer was splendid. Fun and got some amazing snaps of us & the sharks! Rachel was a phenomenal guide with all her knowledge and calmness. I can't remember the rest of the crew but they were awesome as well!! Thanks guys for the experience!!

Nervousness GONE in the water - EVERYONE has to do this - One of the best experiences I’ve ever had. Was jittery at first but felt completely safe in the water with the 2 safety divers. They monitored the whole interaction and made sure everything was good. This is something I would recommend everyone to just do. At least once in your life. Don’t overthink it. It’s completely worth it. You get a completely new understanding of sharks.

Galapagos shark & tiger shark sighting <3 - We had a great trip and were allowed to see a tiger shark & a Galapagos shark! Michelle the photographer was there and took some nice pictures which you can book for an extra charge. In addition, a safety diver is present all the time. We are happy and can definitely recommend the tour:)

Sharks! Bucket list checked off!! - Fantastic experience! The captain and safety divers were so informative and helpful. They were also friendly and welcoming. We learned a lot about shark behavior and how to stay safe. We also saw 6(!) male Galapagos sharks. They got really close (but not too close). Highly recommend! This isn’t a big commercial operation, so if you like a smaller, more personal service, this is the one to book!

Great experience - The experience was great. The sharks would get close and swim past you. Crew members were very friendly and helpful. Overall I would definitely recommend coming here even if you’re a solo traveler.

Bucket list shark experience. - Incredible experience. A bucket list crossed off for my nephew and myself. We saw many sharks including a tiger shark right at the end. We also saw four humpbacks on the way out and back. The guides did a great job informing and protecting us. A bonus that I didn't expect, they educated us on shark life and behavior, Highly recommend this trip.
