I just went on this tour and cannot rave about it enough. The crew were fabulous. Friendly, professional and very informative. We swam with the dolphins multiple times and once with turtles. I cannot describe how wonderful the experiences were. This is hopefully not a one-time experience. I want to go back and do it again. I would highly recommend Indigo Ocean and their Swim Dolphins tour. You don't want to miss out.

Set sail on an unforgettable West Oahu dolphin cruise aboard a spacious 42-passenger catamaran. This double-hulled vessel offers a smooth, stable ride as you relax and take in panoramic ocean and mountain views along Oahu’s scenic western coastline. In the crystal-clear waters, watch pods of wild dolphins swimming gracefully through their natural habitat. While maintaining a respectful distance in accordance with the Marine Mammal Protection Act, you may also encounter Hawaiian green sea turtles, tropical fish, and other rare marine wildlife. Depending on conditions, you could even have the opportunity to swim alongside playful bottlenose or spotted dolphins for a once-in-a-lifetime ocean adventure.

Great weather, great crew, great experience. Some of us didn't get to see the dolphins under water, but such things aren't guaranteed, so not exactly a criticism. We were able to swim with the turtles, however. Very cool. The boat forgot to bring dessert (okay, that is a criticism), but not a big deal. Everyone on the boat was kind, Uncle John was a great photographer, JB was a great "dive master," and the whole experience was definitely worth it.

Amazing experience! Breathtaking views! The crew are very kind, welcoming and knowledgable. They are also very respectful and ethical towards sea creatures. We saw spinner dolphins which are protected so we didn't get to swim with dolphins this time. The crew tried their best to find another pod, we were just unlucky but we got to swim with turtles instead! I would do the tour again! They offer snacks food and drinks. Everything was amazing!

It was amazing! The crew and the photographer John made this event memorable and we saw the rare dolphins called the pygmy killer whale and we got to hold a baby octopus!!

The people running this activity are great and we had a great time. It was probably our favorite day in Hawaii.
