What To Expect

You’ll snorkel in a secure aluminum cage about three miles off the North Shore, where you can see Galapagos and Sandbar sharks clearly in their natural habitat. The cage floats at the surface, so you don’t need to swim—just hold on to the bars and watch the sharks up close. All snorkel gear is provided, and trained crew members are there to ensure your safety and answer any questions.

Frequently Asked Questions (8)

Q: Will I get seasick on Oahu Shark Dive on the North Shore?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
