About this business

RecreationTours

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

To say the crew was phenomenal would be an understatement. I wish I could give more than 5 stars!! Our family had a great time!(4 of us, 1 young man from Texas, and 2 young ladies+1 young man from Arkansas. We've been all over the Gulf Coast and I've been all over California and the Atlantic, but first time for any of us to Hawaii.) The guys were so extremely helpful and knowledgeable, I'm a huge animal lover (especially marine life) and they had so much info it was great to know we picked the perfect place, that it was a v... read more

Well worth the money...we got way more than we paid for. The guys on the boat share lots of awesome knowledge about what species you are seeing and they keep you entertained. Very professional and kind crew...no complaints.

My best friend, mom, dad and I went on this encounter today and it was AMAZING! Thiswas my best friend and I's first shark encounter and they made it so easy and comfortable.

Our guides, Phillip and Kolaeo were great and I definitely will want them as our guides the next time we go! The only thing I would highly recommend is extra motion sickness medicine if it affects you. Being on the ocean is so different so bring plenty of water ... read more
