Once chosen, our friendly and highly trained crew will assist you with snorkeling instructions to make sure your having a relaxing and enjoyable experience in the water.

Because Niihau / Lehua are the oldest of the islands in the chain, and had the most time for erosion to shape and carve the lava rock, they are the home to the most unique underwater lava formations such as lava tubes and arches. And because of the area sheer remoteness, the coral reef is the healthiest in Hawaii attracting a variety of marine life such as tropical fish, green sea turtles, spotty eagle rays, eels, and even the occasional pod of dolphins.

After snorkeling, enjoy a gourmet deli-style buffet lunch. Choose from a variety of deli meats, cheeses, veggies and breads to make your sandwich a work of art!
