When first planning my vacation to Hawaii this was one of the first things I planned on doing. I am very adventurous and love being in the water. Well this time I was able to do it with lots of sharks around! The gentleman on the boat were nice and funny. Recommend bringing or buying an underwater camera to share... More

The trip was excellent and staff were great. Shark cage was very sturdy and easy to float/snorkel in. We had at least 10 sharks show up that circled the cage the whole time. The took awesome photos with the Go Pro camera.

Before I start- I would like to put this in perspective. I have been both terrified of and facinated with sharks since I saw the movie Jaws as a child. And though I live in Hawaii you will rarely (as in I can count on one hand) find me in the water here. I was hoping this experience would get... More

When I first suggested to my group that we do this, I was secretly hoping they would say no. Swimming with sharks seemed so terrifying! I think I was scared the whole time until I got into the cage. Then all my fears vanished and I was just in awe of the sharks swimming around me. There were so many!... More

We arrived at the break of dawn to find that the other place that we had a reservation had left without us, even though we arrived on time. We walked over to NSSA and they took us on the spot! It was a great time, though the water was a little rough and I did suffer from sea-sickness while in... More

We paid $96 per person for this snorkeling experience with sharks; it was worth it though.!!! We drove from Waikiki beach, left here around 630am, got there around 720am, we only got a little bit of traffic. It was three of us, two guys and me a girl, I was not nervous at all, well I was just nervous about... More

Be prepared to ruin your whole day. even with Dramamine my party of seven felt sick for the rest of the day. relative to the the time you spend in the tank watching the sharks swim by totally disinterested in the cage, it is very expensive at 125 a head. your time in the tank for a total of 15...

It is a bit expensive if you are just going up there for the dive and need the shuttle, but totally worth it when you are in HI. It was a pretty remarkable snorkel (not really a dive) to be that close with the sharks, and the guys are all good and provide a ton of other information on what... More

In a way you pay for the thrill of being right there with the sharks in the same water. You don't know what to expect so you dish out the big bucks. They offer to take a video of you before you go in the water. So you add another $70.00. Once you are in the the water the thrill... More

On our last trip to Oahu we did the shark cage dive with another company. Although we really enjoyed our dive with them, the water conditions were extremely choppy that day so we weren't too sure if we wanted to do it again on this vacation. Who was I kidding? Of course, we're doing it again!!! On a whim I... More
