Best day ever! - From start to finish, everything ran smoothly. I would highly recommend this agency to anyone else who is looking for a dolphin swim experience. Our team, Steve, Frank and John, were fantastic. They were very kind, funny, and attentive to everyone’s needs. I really appreciated them finding a hotel super close to where we were staying to pick us up. We immediately saw spinner dolphins right outside the harbor. We could not swim with them but we took great photos. There were even babies! So cute! It took a while to find the dolphins we could swim with, likely because of all the military air traffic the day we went, but our team didn’t give up. Other boats had given up and moved on to snorkeling, but we they waited it out and it paid off! I was able to be within 15-20 feet of a bottle nose dolphin that turned and looked at me! Best moment ever!! We also went snorkeling and were able to see a couple of endangered turtles and even hold an octopus! The boat crew were also fantastic! Very funny and great to just hang out with and talk to. I will for sure be using Indigo Ocean if I make it back to Hawaii again. A big shout out to our tour and boat crews! You guys are the best!

Amazing experience of dolphin encounters - Amazing experience! This is the very first group that developed dolphin tour, reason being they know where and how to find the wild dolphins. The captain knows what she’s doing and found the dolphins successfully. We jumped to the ocean three times to swim with different groups of dolphins. It’s such an exciting and fun experience. Vibes on the cruise is chill and fun, the crew is super friendly and knowledgeable. Even going solo will not feel bored at all. We got plenty of beautiful photos including the wild animals. I definitely will go again with them when I get back to Hawaii.

Best decision of my whole trip - Best decision of my whole trip was doing this dolphin swim. My wife and I jumped right in with a huge pod of dolphins, sea turtles, and even got to hold an octopus. Word of advice… when the crew says get in the water you get in the water right then and there. Don’t wait! Just jump in and experience what this amazing ocean has to offer. The photographer/videographer was amazing and had great tips for getting the most out of this experience. Same with the rest of the crew! Listen to them when they yell where stuff is! If I could rate this higher I would. Thanks again for the amazing experience!!

Amazing first time experience - The. Crew was informative, entertaining, and extremely helpful. The catamaran was comfortable and perfect for viewing all sides. At 67 this was my first experience swimming in deep water and using a snorkel. The crew made me feel safe and helped when needed. We actually swam with the dolphins, turtles, and saw a humpback whale. It was an amazing experience that I hope to do again.

The Swim with Dolphins on... - The Swim with Dolphins on the West Coast of Oahu tour was one of the best things that we did in Hawaii. It was wonderful. The tour guide, captain and team were so nice and accommodating. We had a chance to swim with dolphins, turtles, many fish and and an octopus. Steve, the tour guide, took wonderful pictures and sent to us. I highly recommend this tour, a chance of a lifetime, lots of fun!!!!!

Not a good idea. - Don’t do it..it was long and we never seen any dolphins.. the crew was not involved at all.. the one guy just kept taking pics after pics .. all we really seen was a 3 legged turtle and fish were just feeding on his foot..
