Best catamaran tour ever with snorkeling, dolphins, turtles, kayaking, boarding - but what made it different was the fact that it's a family run business and they go out of their way all day long to make you feel like Ohana as well... our family of 4 (my husband, myself, our 16 year old daughter and our 9 year old son) had the time of our lives and will be going every time we return to Oahu.

Aloha! Come and spend a day with us on a 120 mile Circle Island Tour. This is the perfect way to experience Oahu’s most scenic sights and Hawaii’s people. From Diamond Head Crater along the southern coast to the famous surfing beaches of the North Shore, you’ll take in a landscape that includes lush mountains, sparkling waters, and sometimes huge winter surf on the north shore. Learn about Hawaiian cultural sights and the unique culture and history of Oahu through tour narration and Mo’olelo “talk story”, and share original Hawaiian songs written by our Ohana “family” along the way.

"This tour is awesome. Great guides. Tours can include dolphin sightseeing, on-board BBQ and snorkeling. It was a fun-filled day that I will never forget. I highly recommend this tour."
"Highlight: we were able to snorkel with dolphins (not touching, but close enough to watch them clearly), and sea turtles, and glorious brightly coloured fish, with a strong emphasis on not stressing them out in the process. They don't drop us in the water and then herd the dolphins towards us; ins..."tead, we cruised up off to the side, got a little ahead, then in the water we tried to act like dolphins to entice them closer. Wonderful!
Same deal with the turtles - we stopped at a 'cleaning station' where turtles habitually go, and were warned to stay off to the side, and to not sneak up behind the turtles, while they did their thing. Several of them came in to the station while we were there, swimming past within a foot or two of us - so the no-stressing appears to be working.
Low: captain and crewperson maybe hadn't worked together before/recently - captain was all about safety of the boat and all on board, and crewperson was all about safety of the guests, but they hadn't worke...

"My husband and I sailed with Wild Side Specialty Tours on May 9. The overall experience was more than expected. The entire crew was friendly, knowledgeable and patient. I was not a good swimmer, so the staff was very accommodating to my needs.
My husband on the other hand was an excellent swimmer...", so enjoyed every moment with the dolphins. It was a memory that will last a lifetime.
We highly recommend to use their service for a great and memorable experience with the dolphins and sea turtles.
