Your exciting Oahu adventure combo begins at your hotel lobby, when your local guide meets you at the door in a 15-passenger van. From there you’ll drive past Punchbowl Crater (Puowaina) up the slopes of Tantalus Mountain (Pu’u ‘Ohia), and be fit with your Kona mountain bike, helmet, and gear for biking.
On the 5-mile (8-km) cruise down Pu’u Ohia, you’ll occasionally stop to photograph viewpoints of Oahu’s southern shoreline, where the scenery stretches all the way from Diamond Head (Le’ahi Crater) to the Wai’anae Mountains in the west. You’ll also get unforgettable views of the Honolulu skyline.
Throughout the ride, your guide provides you with expert narration on the area’s history and culture, and when you reach the grassy park at the bottom, it’s a short drive to Kewalo Basin for your 2-hour catamaran sail.
Find a seat on the comfortable deck as the crew casts off the bowlines, and enjoy the views of Diamond Head as seen from out on the water. As long as the wind and weather permits, you’ll have the chance to jump in the water and snorkel with colorful reef fish, or you can simply lie out and tan on the deck with the wind blowing gently through your hair.
At the end of the Oahu snorkeling sail, you’ll be transported back to your Waikiki hotel in a comfortable, air-conditioned van, and since all equipment is included on this tour. Just remember your bathing suit!
