This is the best way to visit Oahu’s #1 snorkeling destination with a duration of 6 hours (Round-trip with hotel pick up/drop off). Great for all ages and experience levels.The most convenient and reliable transportation from Waikiki to Hanauma Bay.

Fish a plenty. Driver was great. Ensured we entered the park in the most efficient manner eliminating the stress had we gone it alone.

I absolutely loved snorkeling at Hunnama Bay! The fish were amazing!
Tip for future visitors. They say that the entry fee is $25 cash only, but they didn't tell us that the concession stand is credit or debit ONLY.

Incredible beauty, amazing views underwater, and close to the city.
We did NOT have reservations, but got up early (we are from Florida so our internal clocks being 6 hours ahead, it was not at all difficult to get up early) and was able to get in. Rolled up to the entrance and it was lined up both ways. We drove by thinking there was absolutely NO WAY we were getting in without a reservation. So we bypassed the entrance, pulled off on a scenic stop and looked around and headed back toward Honolulu. When we passed the entrance again there was NO LINE! Drove in, paid $3 to park, and went to the blue umbrella and got passes without a problem (we were there around 7 am). Rented some gear and were some of the early ones in.
I had done extensive research and saw many post that it’s better to get there early before the water gets murky. So glad we did because it was definitely easier to find fish early on compared to later when the sand was churned up. Go early!
As we were leaving, noticed some divers WAY out on the left hand d side. To do it all over again, that’s what I would have done. Maybe next time!
The only knock I have with the space is it is rather expensive. By the time we paid the fees and got some old rental gear it was nearly $200. I’m glad we went, but I think it should be about 1/2 that considering it is a state park and they are subsidized by tax dollars and are not a non-profit keeping everything up and staffing with private funding.

My family of 5 had a great experience. The tour company was super organized, friendly, and on time. I’m so glad we booked this tour and didn’t attempt to do it ourselves…the park entry/ticketing process is confusing to manage on your own.
We saw all types of fish, eel, coral, and a turtle. It was great to arrive when the park opened and it was less crowded.

Loved the excursion. The day before they texted to confirm and gave options to rent additional items. We were picked up via large van at our hotel at 5:50a in Waikiki. The about 30 mins later we were at the site. They dropped us off and we enjoyed the day together. The snorkeling was fantastic! The weather was great and everyone was nice. We were picked up around 11 and taken back to our hotel.

What a great experience to observe but not touch this preservation area for fish and wildlife! EARLY pickup from
Hotel but tight on time and beat the crowds with quick access and even a tram! Saw a seal on beach and shallow snorkeling! Masks provided ok and enjoyed our chairs. Driver/guide great!

Leave the reef alone. I used to go as a kid, and there were so many fish. Now, there are few fish and so many people. Idiots walking on the reef! Leave it alone and let it recover.
