# Waikiki Beach Glass Bottom Boat Tour

In our comparison: #44 of 48 in Catamaran & Sunset Cruises, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).

## Overview

Enjoy the beauty of Oahu’s South Shore! Depart from the Kewalo Basin Harbor and head toward Lē’ahi (Diamond Head). While aboard the Haleiwa Queen, enjoy the clear view of the Pacific Ocean floor as we cruise over live tropical reefs and one of Hawaii’s popular shipwrecks. Keep an eye out for honu (sea turtles), eels, reef sharks, dolphins, and schools of tropical fish, all visible from the deck of our vessel through our glass-bottom boat viewports. You’ve never seen the ocean like this before!

Perfect for large or small groups, book a fun-filled tour with Hawaii Glass Bottom Boats for your family or friends while visiting Hawaii. It’s a great activity for convention groups, employee appreciation days, military group outings, and local school field trips. We also offer wedding photo tours showcasing you on your wedding day against the beautiful backdrop of Oahu’s coastline.

PLEASE NOTE: We make every effort possible to view marine life, but we CANNOT guarantee any animal sightings.
