Turtles and You

Departing Kewalo Basin Harbor aboard the double-deck powerboat Ariya II, the ride reaches a protected reef where honu feed and rest year-round. In the water, you float at the surface in a life jacket while turtles cruise roughly 15 to 25 feet down over the coral, with about 45 minutes of swim time. Gear and a briefing from CPR-certified crew are included, accompanied by cold drinks and snacks on deck. The outing requires no prior experience, welcomes children as young as two with an adult, and handles transit through a complimentary Waikiki hotel trolley.
