Fun activity. Crew was friendly and safe. Had a photographer in the water to take pictures for purchase from the outside of the cage. Nicely done. Would do it again.

Derek and Konaloa (hope that’s spelled correctly) took us on such a fun adventure! We felt completely safe with these two pros. This is the only locally-owned shark tour, and they are able to give great information about the sharks, land, and local recommendations. It’s the highlight of our vacation, and it’s a must see on your visit to Hawai’i.

A great time had by all! We saw several sharks. Water was a bit choppy so PLEASE take your motion sickness meds. Even if you think you'll be okay. Nothing more disgusting than folks vomiting while in the shark cage. I would highly recommend this shark tour.

Super cool dive, was able to see at least 7 sharks. Adriana and Joey were super helpful when some of your crew got seasick. Overall would definitely go again.
