The tour lasts approximately 100 minutes, including a 50-minute snorkeling session at Turtle Canyon, a reef about three-quarters of a mile off Waikiki Beach. Turtle sightings are guaranteed on every tour. Three lifeguard-certified snorkel guides accompany guests in the water to help explore the reef and spot Hawaiian green sea turtles, which come to the reef for cleaning by fish and frequently surface to breathe. Other marine life that may be seen includes various reef fish, eels, octopus, urchins, rays, and occasionally dolphins or humpback whales from December to April. All snorkeling gear and flotation vests are provided, along with soft drinks served on board. The tour follows the coast of Waikiki, offering continuous views of Waikiki and Diamond Head State Monument. After snorkeling, guests return to the boat to relax and enjoy refreshments in the sun.
