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

An unbelievable experience for all! We had an amazing time watching about 15 or more sharks swim around us. We all felt totally safe the entire trip. I have a new feeling of ease going into my next free dive with sharks. The crew was funny and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this experience. 

Business response:

Erin, you can say that again! Swimming with sharks is definitely something you don't get to do every day. We're glad you got to see about 15 while you were in the waters. Also, it's a pleasure to know that you felt safe the entire time onboard with us. There are more sharks to be seen, so be sure to book with us again. -Aloha! -Hawaii Shark Encounters

What an amazing experience! We got to see Galapagos and Tiger sharks. Our captain and guide were fantastic. It’s well worth the time if you’re spending time in Oahu.

The most friendly and encouraging staff members and the greatest experience ever. Phil and Dave played music and sang along to the songs with me while educating us about the sharks and the outing. There was a young girl on the boat who was scared about going in and they continuously talked to her explaining everything while also trying to distract her. She ended up enjoying the dive as much as the rest of us. Highly recommend them!! 

Business response:

Elise, we're honored to know that we could provide you with one of the greatest experiences! Also, glad you enjoyed Dave and Phil's company! They do a great job of making sure that everyone feels safe and comfortable. We love reading how the young girl ended up enjoying the dive. We'd love to have you back with us, so be sure to give us a call if you'd like to make another booking! -Aloha! -Hawaii Shark Encounters
