Snorkel Waikīkī’s reef with a guide, then soar 1,000 feet above Oʻahu for sweeping views of Diamond Head and the Pacific.
About this tour
See Waikīkī from two striking perspectives on this 3-hour snorkeling and parasailing adventure. Cruise from Kewalo Basin Harbor aboard a glass-bottom boat toward a known gathering place for Hawaiian green sea turtles, or honu. After a safety briefing and gear fitting, join an in-water guide to explore the reef and look for turtles and tropical fish. Prefer to stay dry? You can watch through the boat’s glass-bottom viewing area. Sightings are not guaranteed.
Then trade the water for the sky and rise 1,000 feet above Oʻahu’s south shore. From your tandem or triple parasail flight, admire Diamond Head, Waikīkī, and the Pacific stretching toward the horizon. The parasailing boat can carry up to 15 passengers, and single flights are not offered. The activities may have separate check-in instructions and departure times, so review your confirmation before heading out.
This Waikiki snorkeling and parasailing adventure pairs guided reef exploration with an unforgettable aerial view. Check in at Kewalo Basin Harbor 30 minutes before departure, then enjoy a memorable day above and below the water.

How this score is calculated
This tour has no TourTruth score yet: Viator doesn't show a usable rating for it. It gets a score as soon as a provider lists one.
How the score works
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10. Tours without a usable provider rating are not scored.
