Waikiki Glass-Bottom Boat Cruise
Stays on the surfaceTurtles & dolphinsShaded deck

A one-hour cruise along Waikiki toward Diamond Head on a boat with viewing panels in the hull.

It leaves from Kewalo Basin, just west of Waikiki.

What's included
  • 60-minute cruise with captain and crew
  • Glass viewing panels in the hull
  • Bottled water, restroom on board and complimentary photos
