About this business
Hawaii Shark Encounters gives you the opportunity to experience the thrill of meeting sharks face to face in the pristine waters of Oahu. We take you three miles offshore, where you can observe Galapagos and Sandbar sharks in their natural environment from the safety of a floating cage. No scuba experience is necessary -- you enter the cage from above and stay on the surface using a mask and snorkel. Large polyglass windows let you peer into the open ocean and watch the sharks as they glide gracefully through the deep blue. ... read more

Chris, thank you for leaving this recommendation! We look forward to seeing you here again soon. -Aloha! -Hawaii Shark Encounters
We absolutely loved it! Went out one day and the water was so rough, our dive had to be rescheduled. The day we were able to dive was perfect!!! Calm water, blue skies and sharks!! I must admit, I was a bit apprehensive to jump in, but I would go again in a heartbeat! Knowledgeable, kind crew. We were even lucky enough to have the "Big Boss" on our tour, although he was so humble, we didn't know until we returned back to dock. He knew a ton about marine life and shared it with us. Overall experience - A++

Great experience! The guys were awesome,like hanging out with friends. I never thought I’d actually get in the water but didn’t think twice once we were out there. Even if you just stay on the boat, it was a great experience. My kids, 12 & 15, also went in and said it was the best thing we did while in Hawaii. My 10 year old stayed on the boat and had just as much fun. Plenty of sharks to be seen even from the surface. There were whales in the distance and they put the microphone in the water so we could listen to the whal... read more
