We aim to provide a seamless snorkeling experience. That’s why we offer everything you need for snorkeling on board the Stugots. All you need to bring along is a towel and the spirit of adventure!
Discover the Mysteries of Turtle Canyon Reef
A snorkeling tour with us transports you to the popular spot of Waikiki’s Turtle Canyon reef, famed for its large Hawaiian green sea turtles. Every afternoon, we send our guests to the reef to swim with some of Hawaii’s largest turtles. You’ll witness them gliding gracefully through the water, creating a spectacle of serenity and strength.
The rendezvous point is just beyond the surf line, above the turtle cleaning station. We have a mooring set up there, which facilitates close encounters with these majestic creatures. Yet, the turtle experience is only a part of the vibrant marine life.
