Great way to hang out with sharks - Cheerful, professional crew of three (captain, guide, photographer) took us three miles out to a mooring point where Galapagos sharks circled even before we were in the water. With wet suit shirts, fins and masks/snorkels provided by the crew, we eased into the water and held on to a line behind the boat. As we drifted on the surface, 7 or 8 curious sharks circled below and our guide would redirect any that came too close. We also saw a large barracuda and dozens of pelagic fish. Highly recommended!

Great adventure!! - It was a great trip despite conditions. It was very windy and the water was murky, but I still saw 5 sharks!! I felt very safe with the crew and safety briefing. Everything was well handled and I would definitely book again!

Exhilarating Swim with Sharks - Swimming with 5 sharks and feeling safe at the same time seems to make no sense! Captain Justin and his amazing crew were knowledgeable, friendly and very patient. We Would highly recommend this tour on your next trip to Oahu!

Best Christmas Eve Ever! - Spent Christmas eve with these guys and they're amazing crew! It was a smaller more personal tour so it was more intimate and we all left the boat feeling like family. It was a quick trip out to the point you get in and when we got there we were not disappointed after some rules and lessons from our wonderful behavioral specialists we got in the water and saw at least 15 galapagos sharks. I felt safe the entire time and really enjoyed my time and Christmas eve trying something new. Would recommend 100%

Book it ...... 1000/100 recommend!!! - My best friend and I woke up early for the 7am tour with Jordan and Michelle. They were so knowledgeable and friendly. We had 10+ sharks swimming around us when we were in the water and felt completely calm and safe. This was a once in a lifetime experience and I am so happy we booked this through them.

Don;t be a square! Give this excursion a try! You won't regret it! - That was fun! We had about 30 to 45 minutes in the water. There were three sharks that showed up as if on cue! It's set up so anyone can do this! One shark passed within 5 feet of me- twice! That beat the hell out of a booze cruise or hanging on a parachute behind a boat. Plus. I've never visited Haleiwa! It was a neat little town. Give Captian Chris a call and book this trip NOW!

The crew was so knowledgeable and kept us totally safe while we swam with 11 galapagos sharks!!! I also have a newfound respect for sharks due to the staff's knowledge and care for the sharks.
