Itinerary
For the thrill-seekers! We will travel three miles off of the North Shore of Oahu to find Hawaiiʼs famous Manō (shark). Surrounded by clear blue abyss, guests will have the opportunity to swim alongside this pelagic predator, with the guidance of a Professionally Trained Shark Handler. The crew will provide guests with information on shark biology and behavior, as well as safety guidelines for snorkeling and free diving. The most common resident shark species include Galapagos, Sandbar, and Tiger sharks. However, being in a pelagic (deep-water) zone allows the possibility. Our professional Under Water Photographer will be aboard as well, offering services at a fee to capture your underwater experiences in High Quality photos and video that will be digitally sent to you a few days after your dive. You don't want to miss out on this bucket list item, especially here in Hawaii!!
Waialua Bay is filled with tons of marine life, from the Hawaiian Spinner Dolphin to dozens of fish species like the Malolo or "Flying Fish" and even the Humpback Whales that migrate to Hawaii in the winter Months. You'll never know what to expect on a Ocean tour.
Waimea Bay sits on the legendary North Shore of Oahu, where the ocean meets the island with power and grace. In the winter, it’s a world-famous surf spot, known for massive waves and expert riders testing their limits. In the summer, the water calms to a glassy, turquoise pool perfect for swimming, snorkeling, and cliff jumping. The surrounding cliffs and golden sand give the bay a dramatic, almost sacred feeling. It's part of a larger cultural landscape, where Hawaiian history and nature still speak. Nearby, Waimea Valley offers a short hike through botanical gardens to a waterfall, adding another layer to the experience. Whether you’re drawn by the thrill or the quiet beauty, Waimea has a way of leaving a mark.
Puaʻena Point Beach Park is a laid-back spot just east of Haleʻiwa on Oʻahu’s North Shore. It’s a favorite among surf schools and beginners, thanks to its mellow waves and forgiving reef breaks . The beach is tucked behind a grove of ironwood and palm trees, offering natural shade and a quiet atmosphere. The shoreline is a mix of sand and lava rock, with tide pools along the edges. You might spot Hawaiian green sea turtles resting on the beach or grazing on the rocks . The water near shore is calm, making it easy to wade in or paddle out. If you’re looking for a relaxed beach with a local feel and a good spot to learn to surf, Puaʻena Point is worth a visit.

They were all very friendly and make sure that you see sharks.
This was AMAZING!! The crew were so nice and made us feel so comfortable. We had done the caged shark adventure before but this was sooo much better. My 15 year old loved it too! Definitely worth it!
Staff was awesome and knowledgeable. Felt very safe! Small group which was great. Definitely recommend!
Great opportunity to swim with sharks! We had previously participated in a cage shark excursion and this was by far a better experience! The crew were amazing and made sure we saw Galapagos sharks and kept us safe while we swam with these amazing creatures. Parker made sure to capture the adventure and be able to share with others! ***HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!***
Amazing experience! Definitely recommend to anyone that can an extreme sport! The crew was nice and attentive.
This was once in a lifetime experience. Definitely worth it! so glad we did not choose the cage option. the team was great, they made sure everybody is safe during the whole time. Awesome experience!
Amazing experience! Everything was perfect, from the crew to swimming with the sharks. Highly recommend!
Staff was wonderful, really chill guides. Looking forward to seeing the photos. I would definitely try again
Amazing!. We swam with about 16 sharks at once. The guides were great. I really liked how it was a small group. It did feel kind of rushed and was a bit overly focused on everyone having their picture taken. More time with and focused on viewing the sharks would have been preferable, but it was without a doubt an unforgettable experience.
Absolutely amazing. From arrival the team were so great. Parker was so knowledgeable and helpful. Saw dolphins on the boat out to the snorkelling spot. Always felt safe in the water and saw many sharks and even barracudas. Michelle was great on the camera and again Parker was just amazing. Hats off to the skipper too he was great. Great vibes on the boat and I would do it a million times again. Definitely recommend!!!
Amazing experience of a lifetime! Crew was phenomenal! Did a terrific job of helping do this adventure!
Amazing experience and the crew made the trip extra special. They showed a true passion for sharks and their environment.
Really amazing experience, they gave us clear instructions for safety and the entire team was very helpful and friendly. Plus i recommend getting the video/photos they were better than expected.
We had the best time! Parker, Ra hel, and Casey were amazing and kept us safe throughout the whole experience. So many sharks!!!
Jordan and his crew were excellent, I felt very safe in the water with Josh and Taylor while we swam with the sharks. They were well organized and took care of all of us so we only had to enjoy ourselves while in the water. Well worth the price, can’t wait to do it again next time I’m in town.
Sharker Parker was amazing! He was so friendly and made the experience feel really personal. He took the time to chat with us about our wedding, which was such a nice touch, and went out of his way to get tiger sharks in our photos. We had an incredible time and really appreciated how much effort and attention he gave us. Definitely recommend Parker!
A MUST DO ON OAHU!!! One of the top experiences of my life. Parker, Julia, Matty and capt. Casey were all phenomenal and we had 6 Tiger sharks!! What a day
The cageless dive was an awesome experience. The crew was very knowledgeable and professional, and we felt completely safe at all times. They made sure we saw several sharks and had an enjoyable time. I highly recommend the experience and the crew!
The tour was super awesome!! You can stay on the surface-ish and look at the sharks underneath and then they get closer because they lure them with a rag and they look at it and circle. [[You ca choose to dive a bit further and get closer]] It's almost cute, kinda like a dog. It was absolutely AMAZING to see the sharks do that and swim close to them. Unfortunately felt a bit seasick IN the water (not the boat) and they were super nice and gave me water and the photographer didn't charge me for the few photos, EXTRA NICEEEE. And I got a sticker.
We had an amazing time out in the water! Everyone was so great and helpful. My daughter and I loved it and can’t wait to see our pictures!
This was so fun! I was scared but the crew makes you feel so safe. The crew was so fun! The best experience!
This was an AWESOME experience! This is a snorkeling trip, not a scuba dive trip. Experience with snorkeling will be helpful, but not required. The Boat ride was a little rough so if you are not used to rough water, bring your anti-nausea medication or sea-bands. The guides were very knowledgeable about the sharks and were great in helping us get the most out of the experience. I think we only saw Galapagos sharks, but they say you have the potential to see other species like Tiger, Hammerhead and others. NOTE: You cannot take your iPhones in those water-tight cases in the water while swimming with the sharks. GoPros are allowed, however, if you want an even better experience, they have a photographer on board that will take pictures of you swimming with the sharks for $75/person. It's hard to get those cool pics if you're handling a GoPro while swimming with them. We opted to have the photographer take pics for us. Each of us got anywhere from 200-300+ pictures delivered to us. It takes the photographer about a week to process them and load them up to a Google drive, but it's worth it! If you have never done anything like this before, this is a great opportunity to be adventurous.
Truly an amazing experience seeing a shark just a few yards away. The staff was exceptional, and made the experience fun, safe, and easy to follow
Amazing experience! Crew was very helpful and seemed experienced with their jobs and with made us all feel confident getting into the water with the sharks. It was an amazing experience and we all felt so comfortable being in the water with these beautiful creatures.
Great Shark Dive 🦈 highly recommend
The crew was awesome super nice and really made the whole experience great. Awesome dive and amazing time. The crew really facilitated a fantastic and memorable trip
Don't be scared!! It was great!!! This was on my bucket list for years and finally booked it. O my gosh..I loved every minute of it..best thing I've ever done 👍🏻✅
All nervousness was completely gone after meeting the crew. They were nice and very educated! Never felt unsafe and we saw a ton of sharks, along with a whale sighting on the way out! If you’re even considering doing this, just do it. This was probably one of the coolest things I’ve ever done. The one thing to be aware of is motion sickness. Highly recommend taking some medicine for that and going in the morning. Towards the end of our excursion I started to feel a bit sick as the waves became a little stronger. But I would definitely do it all over again. So worth it!
Ricky, the shark expert was very knowledgeable and made you feel safe. Parker, the photographer, was amazing in the water and his instructions while taking the photos were always done with kindness and patience. Captain Mattie was an excellent captain and helped out whenever he wasn’t driving the boat. All around the three of them made the day outstanding!! Highly recommend hanging out with them. And, of course, the sharks (saw about 10 swimming around us) and so cool!!
Amazing experience! We saw about 10 sharks. The team was highly professional and made sure everyone was safe and enjoyed the swim.
This was an awesome tour with a knowledgeable team that ensures your safety and comfort for the entirety of the tour. Was an incredible experience, one I would do over and over again given the opportunity
This was a brilliant experience. Felt very safe throughout. The team was very knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend it.
The crew was amazing, they were very informative and knowledgeable! Never once did I feel that I was ever in any danger from the sharks because the safety divers Ricky and the camerawoman Nicole were extremely attentive to everyone. I will definitely recommend this tour to everyone I know. I can’t wait to come back to Hawaii so that I can go out with them again.
We were on the 9am tour and it was amazing! Their was a Tiger shark and a number Galapagos sharks that came close enough to almost touch (but don't try). Parker, the photographer made sure he got the best shots of us possible with the sharks and literally held my wife's hand to guide her for the best shots. There were three safety crewmembers in the water the whole time to keep an eye out for us as well. Although we were a bit apprehensive about getting in the open water, once we saw how conscientious the staff was, we felt totally safe. It was a great excursion and quite educational.
The crew was amazing!! Made us feel safe the whole time. Educated us on sharks and conservation. 1000/10 would recommend and do again!! Anytime the sharks came close, the crew immediately got in between. Bucket list item checked ✅️ I've always been fascinated with sharks and this amped that up!! Parker, the photographer was splendid. Fun and got some amazing snaps of us & the sharks! Rachel was a phenomenal guide with all her knowledge and calmness. I can't remember the rest of the crew but they were awesome as well!! Thanks guys for the experience!!
One of the best experiences I’ve ever had. Was jittery at first but felt completely safe in the water with the 2 safety divers. They monitored the whole interaction and made sure everything was good. This is something I would recommend everyone to just do. At least once in your life. Don’t overthink it. It’s completely worth it. You get a completely new understanding of sharks.
The crew was amazing! We saw a few Galapagos and had a great time. I will be back with more guests in the future😊 Thank you all for making the experience for us!
Amazing , once in a lifetime experience swimming with wild sharks in the open ocean. The divers are professionals and made us feel safe. DO IT!
Fantastic experience! The captain and safety divers were so informative and helpful. They were also friendly and welcoming. We learned a lot about shark behavior and how to stay safe. We also saw 6(!) male Galapagos sharks. They got really close (but not too close). Highly recommend! This isn’t a big commercial operation, so if you like a smaller, more personal service, this is the one to book!
The experience was great. The sharks would get close and swim past you. Crew members were very friendly and helpful. Overall I would definitely recommend coming here even if you’re a solo traveler.
Incredible experience. A bucket list crossed off for my nephew and myself. We saw many sharks including a tiger shark right at the end. We also saw four humpbacks on the way out and back. The guides did a great job informing and protecting us. A bonus that I didn't expect, they educated us on shark life and behavior, Highly recommend this trip.
I absolutely loved this experience! We saw multiple humpback whales up close, different species of sharks, and many types of fish. Truly exhilarating to be that close to the marine life! The parking directions were spot on! Once you park look for the business’s teal and white sign!
Very nice experience. Service at the highest level. The dive master takes care of the group all the time. Diving with sharks without a cage is an amazing experience. I recommend this way of communicating with these beautiful animals. I highly recommend Go Adventure Hawaii . E-mail contact, WhatsApp, high-level telephone.
Nicole and Gordon did an excellent job. You can tell that they love the sharks and gave us plenty of time to interact with them. Thank you.
We love it, it was a lovely experience and super exiting. We also get to see dolphins and I was able to hear the sound of a whale😍
This was truly a once in a lifetime experience! Getting to the location was easy to find, and we were greeted immediately by big smiles and warm welcomes from Captain Jordan, Nicole, and Matty. They helped us to find our right sized flippers and gave us great tips and facts about what we were going to be doing! It really calmed any nerves I had had prior to. When we got to the dive spot, Nicole got in the water first to make sure someone would be there for us when getting in, and Jordan helped each of us in. Matty and Nicole stayed with us in the water the whole time and it really was a calming presence to have them there. We saw so many beautiful Galapagos sharks and it was the most surreal thing I have ever done. After the dive, on the way back in, we learned more facts about the sharks and conservation and how we can help and got to take some pictures! I highly recommend this boat and this dive, I can't wait to go back someday!
Swimming with sharks is an excellent adventure! The staff were helpful and accommodating. I had never been in the open ocean with fins on, and I felt safe to do so.
Amazing experience! Ricky, Frankie and the bad ass captain were amazing and made my year with this trip! Felt safe so for those of you worried about that, you're good. Loved not having to jump in a cage and see the sharks. We even saw a tiger shark! Group size is small (which you don't woth other tourist trap tours) so you don't have to worry about much but looking at and out for sharks. Wanted it to last longer but still, very pleased all in all. No real complaints. Hands down... Make this trip happen. Incredible experience you won't forget. Will likely flu back just to do this again.
Captain Chris, Nicole, and Mariana were great on my two back to back trips last week. I felt very safe in the water the entire time and had such an incredible experience. Would highly recommend to anyone and everyone visiting the north shore!
