Oahu Shark Dive

This tour was a great experience! Expensive for a family of 5 to do but was something we'll remember for a long time. This was definitely a highlight of our 3.5 weeks trip.

This was a great tour with clear instructions prior. Guides were very personable. Felt very safe yet also laid back. So glad we did this!

The sharks ate right there so amazing to be swimming so close to them. The guides are nice and friendly.

My boyfriend and I did this excursion and absolutely loved it! The guides were great and made the experience very fun and educational. Saw plenty of sharks up close and even got to see a huge pod of dolphins on the way there. 10/10 would recommend.

The experience was amazing! The captain and crew were phenomenal and super professional, knowledgeable, and patient. The seas were rough, but this was a once in a lifetime absolutely amazing experience. I highly recommend this! Definitely go as early as you can to try to avoid the rough seas.

If you love sharks, but are afraid of them, this is your best chance to view them with you in the ocean. The company very generously refunded one of our divers because of a medical emergency that occurred after booking. The boat ride was comfortable. We received brief safety instructions. The first group had 6 climb off the boat and down into the cage. The water can be choppy, so you need to stabilize yourself on the cage bars. You wear a snorkeling mask, so you can see underwater. Once you adjust, the underwater world comes to you! So many Galapagos sharks glide right by you. You spend 15 mins in the water; then the second group gets in the cage. Our post-op patient still rode in the boat and got amazing views of the sharks on the surface! We felt safe at all times.

Tips-wear polarized sun glasses for the best view from above the water. The staff also recommended earlier excursions have calmer water than afternoon. If you need it, take your motion sickness medicine before getting on the boat!

I agree with the previous reviewer that the pre-activity gathering place can get a big confusing. Parking also was a bit tight when we arrived.

We also thought there would be more discussion regarding shark habitats and conservation efforts.

With that said, seeing multiple sharks inches from you is an awesome experience.

This was such an amazing experience. For me, it was a once in a lifetime experience. To get so close to wild Galapagos sharks was so surreal, and the crew we had were so good, Tito explained how to enter and exit the cage and how best to view these incredible animals. The other member of the crew and please forgive I can't remember his name, was so good at explaining how the day would work, where the cage was and how long it would take to get there, and also to entertain us while one group was in the cage. He told us about the local surfing in North Shore and also about the competitions they have in the winter. It was a most enjoyable morning.

The only criticism I have is that there are a couple of dive companies that launch from the same harbour location, and there really isn't any defined waiting area that separates the companies, so you really have to listen out for your dive times, or you could miss out on your dive. But other than that, it was amazing and I would recommend North Shore shark adventures to anyone who wants to dive with sharks.

We had so much fun seeing the sharks! We left at 8:30 am and the water was a beautiful 75 degrees, we swam with a whole lot of sharks, and had the time of our lives! Would definitely recommend to anyone. (Also, we never felt unsafe in the slightest.)

Awesome being able to see the sharks up close. Make sure to prepare for waves as it can get rocky out in the middle of the ocean! The crew was very professional and helpful. Will definitely come back the next time we are here.
