Morning Ko Olina Dolphin & Snorkel
The emphasis of this trip is spent on sightseeing along the along the Leeward Coast where playful dolphins call home - just up the coast from Ko Olina Resort & Marina. Dolphins most often are soon in sight and ready to put on a show as the jump, spin and splash in the water. During the winter months (Dec-April), time is spent searching for Humpback whales, which are likely to come into sight! If dolphins are found, time is spent watching them play, then it's off to snorkel for about 30-45 minutes before sailing back to the resort. Snorkeling observation of dolphins depends on dolphin behavior and is at the captain's discretion.
Breakfast Menu: Muffins, croissants and other breakfast breads, mixed fruit salad, whole bananas, granola bars, coffee, milk, juice, water and soda.
Afternoon Ko Olina Dolphin & Snorkel This trip emphasizes sailing and snorkeling for the guest seeking an active adventure. The trip begins with snorkeling and swimming after a brief sail. In-the-water time is longer on this trip than on the morning sail. If the dependable Hawaiian winds allow, swimming is followed by more sailing aboard the fast, sleek, stable catamaran.
Lunch Menu: Deli-style build your own sandwiches, chips, mixed fruit salad, whole bananas or oranges, baked dessert, juice, soda, water, beer and Koolina Cat's special mixed drinks (2 free alcoholic drinks per adult).

I am sorry, but the West Side of Oahu is just not that pretty. It is very industrial. I wish, in the end, I had held out, or better planned my time, so I could have sailed on the south east side of the island near Hanauma Bay.

The crew did a fabulous job. The Captain was awesome & even took us to find a pod of dolphins & follow them for awhile. I had my doubts because th weather was cold & cloudy, but it was sstill one of the highlights of our vacation!

Crew was friendly/knowledgeable and the boat beautiful. Although it was dissapointing to be taken to a beach to snorkel - the advertisement should have made it clear that we would not be snorkeling a real reef in open water but instead moored about 100 ft. behind a power plant. That was a dissapointment and I would probably not use this service again as a result.
