Itinerary
As we explore the crystal-clear waters of Turtle Canyon, you'll have the chance to snorkel safely with Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles (Honu) in their natural habitat. Our tour offers breathtaking views of Diamond Head and the Waikiki Shoreline from the water.
After a scenic trolley ride from Waikiki, you'll board our spacious double-decker boat. Once anchored at the snorkeling site, our friendly, certified crew will guide you through a safe and fun snorkeling experience suitable for all swimming levels. Snorkeling equipment is provided and first-timers are welcome! Keep your eyes on the horizon! In addition to sea turtles, we often see Hawaiian spinner dolphins, and during inter months, you may spot humpback whales. After snorkeling, relax onboard with snacks, traditional Hawaiian Hula performances, and enjoy the ocean views!

Everyone was so nice and super interactive even Cheryl who was our bus driver!! We definitely will be coming back!
This was one of the best tours we have been on. To see the turtles up so close in there natural environment was terrific. The crew of the boat were outstanding and funny and looked after everyone so well. Cheryl the trolley driver was great and funny too.
This was an amazing trip from start to finish. From Cheryl, our driver telling us stories of Waikiki and how it all begin to the wonderful boat staff. They made sure that every little detail was taken care of. My dad who just turned 88 and had never swam let alone snorkel before had a blast and there was even a young man. I believe his name was Kaipo that towed my dad over in the water so that he was able to see a turtle!! Captain Jeremy even surprised us by letting us see not once or twice but three times humpback whales and this was just an added bonus to the spinning dolphins that we saw as well as the schools of colorful fish that we saw! I would highly recommend this tour as my sister who is 58 and I am 55 and my dad at 88 had the time of our lives!
Even though the visibility was less than ideal due to previous storms, Captain Zach, Megan and the crew did everything to make this a wonderful adventure for all and took especially good care of me when I was feeling under the weather. So did our trolley driver Cheryl. I'll just have to come back to see the turtles more clearly. The snorkeling was a great experience I hadn't had the opportunity to do for a long while. Mahalo, Ohana. Aloha!
Everyone involved in the trip was an excellent tour guide/representative. Outstanding trip to see the turtles!!!
Our guides Ryan, Kaipo, Tomomi, Jandy and Captain Mark were fantastic! Regardless of your experience, this is the adventure for you. They were helpful with this novice snorkeler and made sure I felt comfortable and safe. They took fantastic photos of me both in and out of the water. I highly recommend.
The crew was amazing, we got to see dolphins and turtles, the family all enjoyed the morning out on the water! Recommend for all
Exhilarating Turtle Expedition on a customized mono-hull boat with an amazing crew that took us to the heart of turtle canyon. It is a short shuttle ride to the marina from the Waikiki hotel district. Once in the water the guides direct you to the turtles for a premium experience. We were allowed plenty of time to explore the sea life around us. We had an additional perk watching scuba divers swim below us as we swam trough their bubbles floating to the surface. The boat ladder was easy to use to climb out of the water after our snorkeling experience. After we were all back on board the boat we headed towards Diamond Head when I spotted dolphins. Captain Zach maneuvered the boat around to follow the dolphins back towards the snorkeling area. This is a must do experience when in Waikiki!!!
Had an absolutely awesome time on the Turtle Snorkeling tour. Ms. Cheryl was so friendly and gave great information about the area and additional tour options during the shuttle to the dock. Captain Mark, Ryan, Dani and Mei were amazing! They were so helpful and provided such a wonderful experience from start to finish! Will definitely book with And You Creations again!
The water was beautiful and the staff were knowledgeable and amazing. However the listing said we get a lunch but there was lunch served. This would have been fine if they did not advertise as lunch. We saw some beautiful turtles. Very fun booking
Rachel, Ryan, Aden and Captain Mark led an amazing snorkeling tour of the reef. So much fun!! The company communicated very clear instructions and was easy to sign up. Highly recommend!!
Loving trip Crew was very professional and friendly Recommend to everyone I see the underwater world was great Thank you
We went on the Turtle excursion. Such an amazing experience! The captain and the crew were friendly, professional, and very helpful. Thank you to Mei, Danika, Ryan, Kipo, and Zack. You guys were amazing, we will be back!
We opted to be picked up for this. Although it was only a short ride to the marina. This was well worth it. The crew of the boat was great. All were friendly and informative. We saw a bunch of sea turtles along with a ton of fish.
We had a blast with Captain Mark and his crew (Dani, Kaipo, Rachael and a lovely Japanese girl). They gave us a taste of Hawaian hospitality and made sure we had a fantastic turtle encounter. We were impressed with their professionalism, too. They took our safety and the care of the turtles very seriously. Mahalo team! We'd love to come back and see the whales with you next time!
Amazing service. Food was pre-prepared and delicious, my wife thoroughly enjoyed her musubi! The crew was engaging and gave the feeling they wanted to be there. There was plenty of turtle activity that day and so it was truly rewarding. The only downside was the choppy waters that left me a tad seasick, but that was no fault of the crew or captain. I actually noticed the caption doing his best in turns to get us through the worst waves as quickly as possible. I will likely be bringing family here when they come visit!
Brandon, Ingrid, Jeremy,Tyler,Alex, Mahea, Danny , cyre. Wonderful people wonderful tour so good will do this again!!! Great energy!!!! Amazing memories !!!
The crew was fantastic and made it a great experience! I would highly recommend this company and this crew!!
Wow. Turtles dolphins even a whale. Great staff, beautiful weather- a perfect day for snorkeling. Captain Luke and crew are the Best !!!
This experience was amazing! The crew Rob, Luke & Danica with their Captain Zach were very friendly and knowledgeable. They took very good care of all on board and made the experience in the ocean peaceful, fun and exciting!! They were all so happy and took us where there were so many turtles that it truly felt magical. They took their time to cruise so we caught a glimpse of a whale and saw a school of dolphins!! An experience that will be unforgettable! Thank you to all… loved the Hula Dance too!
The trolley ride was just perfect as they picked us up and dropped us off at our hotel. The boat was great and the snorkeling was good, but visibility was not as clear as we had hoped. Ryan and Rachael and Mark were professional, helpful, and truly delightful. Such a terrific crew! We really enjoyed the trip but it was very crowded with all the other snorkel boats. But we loved it!
Such an Amazing trip! This is my favorite excursion! We got to ride on a nice trolley to the harbor. The boat would look for the best location to find the sea turtles. Snorkeling was so much fun! I saw so many colorful schools of fish and quite a few sea turtles. Make sure you eat a little breakfast before going out so you have some energy. Also, make sure you bring your go pro to get some underwater video. The view of the shore from the ocean is really Beautiful. Thanks to the entire crew and staff for making it a fun trip and watching after us. Thanks to Sherry, Miyu, Tomomi, Ryan, Rachel, Luke, Captain Zach and Captain Mark =)
Absolutely loved this tour, bucket list. Seen heaps of turtles, well organized, highly recommended, from driver pick up to boat crew, all were fantastic
Turtles and You tour was AMAZING. We saw so many turtles and the hula show was a bonus! Captain Mark and crew were excellent. Our shuttle driver, Cheryl, was so knowledgeable of Honolulu and we’re very happy to now be part of her Hawaiian family.
Fantastic company to work with from beginning to end. Their trolley provided us with transportation from our hotel to the boat dock. We were a bit early so our driver gave us a tour of the nearby area. The boat was very clean and crew super friendly! Robert, Adian, Rachel and captain mark did a great job taking care of us on and off the boat. They were quick to point out marine life and made sure we didn’t get run over by other boats pulling into the area. The snorkeling area was a bit crowded and you were constantly bumping into people because everyone would go where the turtles were spotted. The crowd also made it difficult to tell who was in your group. We had yellow life vests which helped until another group showed up in the same! Robert and Adian did great keeping everyone corralled. We went out mid day, so maybe the morning or late afternoon tours would be less people??? If you have bad knees or are a heavier person, the boat has 2 wide ladders that make it easy to climb in and out of the boat with fins on. We brought our own water bottles, but drinks are available for purchase on the boat. You also get a nice little cruise with the view of the Waikiki Beach shoreline on the way to and from Turtle Canyon. By booking this trip, you get 20% off another tour with this company. We are trying the Dolphins and You next! Be sure to bring cash to tip the crew!
Tour was great! This was our second time on this tour. Great crew, great boat, great snorkeling, great snack. We will do it again next time too. Thanks!
This is a fun trip to do. The crew are very attentive make sure everyone is kept safe & all needs are met. Viewing the turtles up close was an amazing experience. The hula dancing was very entertaining too.
The open water view of Honilulu as the boat took us out to snorkel with the turtles was amazing, as was the surprise dolphin show on the boat ride back to shore. The crew was extremely professional and fun. They gave each of us personalized attention and were very safety minded.
Great relaxng experience. I really enjoyed myself. Wish the lunch was better tho. People were nice. Great time
So much fun!! Was a first time snorkeler and I felt at ease with this crew. Thank you for making it feel fun and comfortable as it did.
18 of us…10 grandchildren & 8 adults boarded the turtle trolley, great experience snorkeling, crew was great & saw turtles. FUN!
I’ll 100% recommend. Fantastic crew members (Eden, Tiana, Robert, the captain etc). Loved my entire duration with them from start to finish. Very organised team. Went on the 10:00am slot. Weather was perfect, not too cold not too hot. Turtle trolley picked us up from the hotel. We had a little tour before we got to the boat which was really nice. The lady driver had so much energy, love her vibe ( Sharon I think). The boat is spacious, clean and the crew were nice, patient (especially in the water with amateur swimmers like my partner & I😂), and very professional. Excellent communication throughout. We really did enjoy ourselves as we saw amazing aquatic creatures 😍. Will definitely book them again if given the opportunity.
Great experience. We saw more than 5 turtles and so many fish. Some of the turtles swam right up from under us. It was a great experience. We had a great crew. Very sweet and helpful. Really enjoyed ourselves.
Trip was fun. Everyone is really nice. Area to snorkel is way too crowded. But we did get to see a lot of fish and some turtles.
So much fun, crew was amazing. Snorkeling was so amazing, we stayed in the water for a while. Saw a bunch of turtles. Tour didn’t feel rushed. Def worth it.
This was a fantastic experience for my wife and I on our honeymoon. Ryan, Dani, Logan and Aiden were an amazing crew and helpful in and out of the water. I'm not a strong swimmer but they were great about keeping folks happy and safe. We saw quite a few turtles and had a great time hanging out on the boat. We would definitely recommend this to any and all who are looking for a great time.
Absolute Perfection. Started with a fun Trolley ride to the boat. Thank you Cheryl. Then an amazing day in a perfect clear blue ocean, full of beautiful fish and turtles. The boat crew could not have been more professional, fun and knowledgeable. The food and drinks on the boat were a great touch. Thank you Captain Jerry, Koa, Aiden, Rachel and Danny.
We really enjoyed our tour, the crew was authentic and fun, we got to see 4 turtles and I loved the singing of the Hawaiian chant and the hula show. The lunch was simple musubi but good. We appreciated the pick up from the trolley and Cheryl was super.
This excursion from start to finish was FLAWLESS. The whole crew (including Cheryl the turtle trolley driver) were very helpful and knowledgeable. I felt safe the entire time, AND we saw a whole lotta turtles, fish, PLUS a pod of 30+ dolphins! Which was nice added bonus! The entire crew was so nice, I loved the musubi lunch, and the bar on board was a nice thing to have. I can't remember all their names but, the captain, the lead guide (long blonde hair), Tiana, Dani, Jay, and other guy. All super helpful and FUN! Highly recommend!
Our day started on 24/06 with the Lovely Cheryl driving the Turtle Trolley bus who picked us on time with a happy and very cheerful greeting. Cheryl gave us a great overview of the icons of Waikiki on our way to our destination of the harbour for our turtle tour. We boarded the boat with a great crew (sorry forget their names) who provided us with all the information required to make our snorkelling experience a great one. We approached our spot where we enjoyed our snorkelling with the turtles and fish. We were not disappointed as we got to see plenty of turtles. As we headed back to shore we got to have lunch (sushi rolls) which were great and you could purchase drinks on board (alcohol can be purchased). We also had entertainment provided of the two beautiful girls doing the traditional Hawaii Dance of the Sea. We were also given information on other tours that you could go on with a 20% discount given. Got back to shore where were greeted by Cheryl who provided us along the way home other tours and activities you can do on the island. We had a great experience...Thankyou to your great staff !!!
Cheryl was the sweetest and most energetic trolley driver. The guides were fun and humorous while being helpful and courteous. I’m glad we went on the trip to see the turtles 🐢
Enjoyed the trip. Total time on boat was 2 hours about 45 minutes to an hour was in the water. The whole time we were picked up by Charol on the turtle trolly to being on the boat with Aiden, Rachel, Mark and Luke was wonderful. We had a beautiful day and saw plenty of turtles and fish. Just fair warning about the lunch is mutsuburi so if that isn't what you like just be warned.
It was amazing we say dolphins and turtles. Our guides was awesome and funny. Loved Charol who picked us up and drove us too the boat!
Absolutely terrific tour. The crew (especially Ryan) were amazing and took really great care of us. So much fun!! We felt safe and everything was so well organized too.
Our tour driver Cheryl was very friendly, welcoming and had a good sense of humour. She gave a wonderful historical description of Waikiki on the drive there. Comfy seats. Julia our snorkel tour guide was very bubbly and sweet. The whole crew was very fun and upbeat and created a memorable trip. We were able to see 3-4 turtles up close and swimming by! Highlight of our trip to Waikiki so far!
Everyone was super sweet and the snorkeling itself was so much fun and a memorable experience. Definitely saw lots of turtles. We were provided with musabis which was really good and the workers made sure everyone had an enjoyable experiences. Also got a fun little turtle tattoo:). Overall, i would highly recommended to anyone even if you don’t know how to swim, it’s a beautiful scenery.
Everyone at “And You” was so great! Sheryl, the Turtle Trolley driver, was so sweet and friendly. Rachel, Aidan, and Koa did such a good job of keeping us safe and entertained. The wind/waves were rough so people on our tour got seasick/nauseous but they handled it with professionalism and care. We saw multiple turtles and enjoyed the whole experience. All in all, would recommend!
Seeing turtles… although it was a lovely hula at the end I wouldn’t call it a “show”. Lunch was really a snack, we had a big breakfast so we were fine. It was a great location and a lot of turtles to see.
Our transportation picked us up within a couple blocks of our hotel. Cheryl was our driver, she was awesome. Full of spunk and fun. The boat crew took care of everyone and made sure everyone had what they needed. It was windy and the waves were high so there was a great deal of sea sickness on our boat. When we got to Turtle Cove we did see turtles! They were beautiful. The water was murky. Not the end of the world, we just looked harder. As time went on t on, more and more boats showed up. Our area became increasingly crowded and boats anchored very near the swimmers. The water became more murky, people kicked each other due to being crowded. It was my understanding this was not the norm but may be becoming the norm and our crew was not happy with what happened. While none of this was their fault it did damper the overall experience.
