A must do for all experience levels - This was hands down one of the coolest experiences of my life. There was never a point where I felt nervous or unsafe. The guides explained everything clearly and knew what they were doing. We saw 4 sharks on my tour and they all just swam around us minding their own business. The free pictures was an awesome touch. Would highly reccomend!

Just book it! - This was my favorite thing I did on Oahu and I loved my entire time on the island so that says something. The crew did a great job at making you feel comfortable and it was a surreal experience. Definitely one of the coolest things I’ve ever done.

Do not hesitate, book this!! - Do not cage dive!! Do this!! So much better!! Seriously, my wife and I were on the fence on this. My wife was terrified of doing this. I wanted to but of course jumping into the water full of sharks is a bit out of the comfort zone. But this wasn’t scary at all once you’re in the water!! We had 4 Galapagos sharks circling under us for the entire 30 minutes. They did not care that we were there, but had some great views of them and they got pretty close. However the highlight was a Tiger Shark that came right at the end, and that one was massive and very curious to what we were. It came right to us and got within feet before turning away. That’s the biggest shark you’ll get in this tour and it wasn’t threatening at all. The tour operators told us they have never had a shark related injury before, 100% safe!! Also wanted to mention they do have floatation things you can hold on to incase you aren’t comfortable snorkeling or swimming. My wife knows how to swim was a but uncomfortable in open ocean so this was nice. Didn’t see this anywhere when I looked it up before hand so wanted to mention.
