Itinerary

Please arrive 30 minutes prior to your scheduled departure time to check in with the Captain and crew, complete waivers if needed, and get fitted for your snorkeling gear. Once everyone is onboard, we’ll depart Haleiwa Harbor for a short 10–15 minute boat ride to our shark dive site off Oahu’s North Shore. During the ride, the crew will provide a full safety briefing and go over what to expect in the water. After arriving at the dive site, guests will enter the water for approximately 45 minutes of cageless shark snorkeling alongside the guidance of our experienced crew. Once the water session is complete, we’ll head back to the harbor to finish the tour.
