The Experience

What your day looks like

This snorkeling expedition to Turtle Canyons is a curated aquatic journey into one of Oahu’s most vibrant marine ecosystems. Located just off the coast of Waikiki, this shallow reef serves as a natural "cleaning station," providing a mechanical necessity for Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles (Honu) who congregate here to have their shells tended to by reef fish. The experience transitions from the bustling Honolulu shoreline to a tranquil underwater world, guided by a team of elite watermen and women.

Turtle Canyon Cleaning Station: Observe an abundant number of large green sea turtles at a closer glance. This unique reef location is where turtles hover as schools of tropical fish "clean" their shells—a fascinating display of marine symbiosis.

The reef is home to diverse species, including yellow tangs, butterflyfish, and parrotfish, creating a kaleidoscopic underwater environment. Expert Guidance: The Honolulu Snorkel Co.
