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

We just got back from a great time with these dudes. We saw at least ten sharks out there and a barracuda. They were swimming around us the whole time. Very knowledgeable crew that shared lots of info and history with us. Rex picked us up from the hotel and on our way home went above and beyond in showing us even more cool stuff in the area. It was just an awesome day and we especially want to thank Rex, you da man!

I've wanted to go shark cage diving since I was around 12 years old, and today I finally got to go with my husband while we honeymoon on Oahu. This company is by far the best you could go with. The crew is great and very knowledgeable...and they seem genuinely passionate about shark preservation. Highly recommend!

This was absolutely amazing! I'm so happy I got to do this again. I did this tour with the same company 10 years ago and knew I had to do it again. This is one of those once (now twice!) in a lifetime experiences that I will never forget! This company is great and would only book it with them. My husband bought 2 shirts but there were no women's cut shirts... just a thought guys! If you do get some printed, please send me one! I would recommend the first one of the day when the sea is calmer, have to get up early but its so ... read more

We planed a girls trip and we had talked our one friend who is deathly afraid of boats and water to do this shark encounter. The two gentlemen were absolutely amazing. He made our friend very comfortable and very patient with her she got in and was able to experience the sharks. It topped of our vacation. Would recommend them over any of the other boat. We had a blast. Thank you. But I can't remember both the skippers names. We were on the boat on Sunday April 23 2017..

This is a must do for everyone! My husband and I went today for the first time. It was such an adrenaline rush. Looking down and seeing all of the sharks so close up was truly amazing. The staff was awesome. They have us a lot of knowledge about the sharks and safety precautions. We're already looking into doing this again sometime soon. If I could give it 10 stars I would. �
