My family and I absolutely loved seeing all the sharks with Haleiwa Shark Tours! The crew was amazing and very informative not only about the tour, but the wildlife and Island too! They made us feel so safe and comfortable and answered any questions we had. We saw so many sharks in the cage up close, it was so cool to see! Would highly recommend this company to anyone wanting to see sharks! We had done another company or two before but by far loved this one for the price and the amazing crew! Definitely coming back again, thank you Haleiwa Shark Tours!

Best Shark Tour! My family and I had the best experience on this shark tour! Lono and Forrest took our group out, and were very professional, knowledgeable, and lots of fun. They explained exactly what to expect, and the boat was really nice and a comfortable ride. We saw sharks the entire time, and even the local iwa bird too. Thank you Haleiwa Shark Tours!! Mahalo,

AMAZING from the Chaplin family!!! I was extremely nervous but once I got in, I didn’t want to get out. Captain Derek and his first mate were informative and patient. We had a small group and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would definitely do it again and recommend anyone who is nervous and wants an experience to change their view on sharks, this is a must!!!
