Description
Please check in before boarding the boat.
Docked in the Waianae Boat Harbor, our ship – Ariya I – has two decks, surround-sound, a Titanic-style bow and a bathroom onboard.
You will be asked to remove your shoes before boarding the boat. This is for your safety. We will have storage for you to place them in during your time onboard.
Filled with the Aloha Spirit, our dynamic crew members are all masters of the sea! Our crew is CPR-certified and trained in water safety. They will inform you how to stay safe on the boat.
Adult beverages are available onboard. Please have your ID ready if you would like to purchase.
Following departure, we will begin our boat ride by reciting a Hawaiian chant called, “E’ho mai“. It is a prayer to the gods of the sea for a safe trip with plentiful marine life.
Once we arrive to our destination, our crew will begin with a snorkel briefing on how to properly use the mask/snorkels and life-vests.
Then it’s time to jump in the water and explore! Hawaii’s clear waters and a sunny day will produce beautiful colors, bringing the reef to life. You’ll see Hawaiian reef fish and turtles!
After snorkeling, guests will have an opportunity to explore different parts of the boat–from the wraparound bow to the 2nd-floor deck for optimal scenic viewing.
Our crew will share information on Hawaiian marine life, such as turtles, dolphins and whales. We may even see some dolphins and whales during our journey!
After a fun-filled day in the ocean, enjoy a complimentary lunch. Take in a live hula performance as you enjoy your lunch.
As a new member of our Dolphins and You ohana (family), we celebrate your Oahu Dolphin Watch with a special gift!
Our original polynesian-style temporary dolphin tattoo! This isn’t available anywhere else but with Dolphins and You. Just our way to say “thanks” and “mahalo”!
After a fun-filled adventure, we head back to the harbor.
Sit back, relax, and enjoy the crew’s Hula Show. At the end, please join us as we dance together to spread Aloha and give thanks.
Thank you for joining us on a fun-filled adventure on the ocean! Please don’t forget about all the sea creatures you’ve met on this adventure!
