Itinerary
Our Turtle Canyon snorkel is aimed at allowing customers to swim with the Hawaiian Green Sea Turtle. At this snorkel spot, there is an incredible amount of wildlife, including sea turtles, hawaiian spinner dolphins, monk seals, manta rays, tiger sharks, and all sorts of reef fish. Every dive is different, and you never know what will come swimming through the reef. With our limit of 6 customers, it allows for close interactions without over-crowding the wildlife. Open to swimmers of all skill level. Snorkel, mask & fins provided.

Great small group experience. We see lots of different species of fish and our guide Havilah was fantastic at sharing her knowledge of the fish and the habitat. She explained the cultural and ecological significance of the turtle cove. Great to see the turtles in the ‘turtle car wash’. A great opportunity for a small group, personalized experience.
We had a wonderful experience doing a semi-private snorkel tour at Turtle Canyon in Oahu off Waikiki. Their boat is smaller than the big catamaran tours; hence, it is a more personal treatment. It also meant that we could leave from the marina next to Waikiki. We also got the photo package, which involved our tour guide taking photos that were 100% better than we could have done using our phones in a waterproof pouch.
Everything we were hoping for! Phillip and Abby created an incredible snorkeling experience. We loved how their down-to-earth experience focused on sharing their passions for ocean life & conservation. No gimmicky tourist experiences here. 100% recommend
Phillip and Abby are incredible! We loved their snorkeling experience. No gimmicks or kitschy stories - just two down-to-earth people sharing their experiences and knowledge of the ocean. The semi-private experience was perfect and exactly what we were looking for! Thank you again!
Had an amazing time with Apex! They made the whole process super easy and were very professional/ friendly during the tour! Mostly liked how small/ intimate the group was compared to other options out there! Loved that they provided personalized video/ photos as well! Definitely recommend!!
Such a good snorkel trip. Super relaxed crew, smooth ride, and everything felt easy and well-organized. We got in the water and saw sea turtles, colorful fish, and just had an all-around great time. No rush, good vibes, and a really solid experience. Would definitely do this again and recommend it to anyone visiting Hawaii.
Very comfortable and spacious boat, amazing conditions on the water! Got to swim with huge turtles!! The crew was professional and friendly :) Highly recommend!!
We had the best time with Hawaii Apex Charters, the crew is awesome and the boat is spacious! Went with friends and family and it was perfect!
We had a brilliant time on our turtle canyon snorkel tour today with Hawaii Apex Charters and we couldn’t recommend them highly enough. They only ever have a max of 6 guests on board which is brilliant and they really look after you. We were lucky to have Phil and Holly take care of us today. They not only ensured our safety, the safety of the turtles and excellent video footage, but that we had the best experience possible. We saw SO MANY turtles as well as lots of other beautiful sea-life. We enjoyed our experience so much that we booked a second snorkel tour with them for tomorrow, to see the Sea Tiger Shipwreck and hopefully more turtles and sharks. Mahalo Phil & Holly.
This was the best experience of my vacation!! It was a small charter which gave us personal attention and great views of the sea life and turtles!! Captain Philand his crew Holli were awesome!! I highly recommend this charter!! We will come back next year 💕. Thank you
Amazing experience. Excellent guides. Felt safe and adequately prepared. Had a wonderful, lovely time. Saw many turtles and exotic fish. Highly recommend.
I had such a good experience with Hawaii Apex Charters, and I honestly couldn’t recommend them enough. Phillip and Ianthe were amazing from start to finish. Super friendly, super knowledgeable, and they just make you feel comfortable the whole time. The turtle tour itself is awesome and we were able to enjoy some of the wildlife that Hawaii has to offer. They know the water well and you can tell they care about the ocean and the wildlife, which made the whole thing feel even more special.
Such a wonderful day out on the water with this crew! I truly felt like I was hanging out with friends. Ianthe and Phillip are very knowledgeable and I felt very safe during this whole experience. You can tell they really love what they do and care about the ocean’s ecosystem! Would absolutely go again!
This was amazing experience. The many turtles and swarms of tropical fish were just below us as we snorkled above. The staff was very knowledagble and friendly. The individualized underwater photography was an impressive way to capture our memorable encounter with nature of the sea.
Really amazing experiance! Our guide Holly was great and very personable, captain phillip was very nice too! I would reccomend paying extra for the videos. You probably wont get the quality of videos that she is going to get for you anyways, and you can spend your time experiancing the turtles without worrying about trying to get cool videos! What a great experiance!!!
