Pure Aloha Adventures, Honolulu HI

Snorkeling at Hanauma Bay was the most fun Elaine & I had on Oahu. Hanauma Bay is 5-star site: clear water full of fish with showers, snack bar, and interpreters. But we hadn't snorkeled in years and arrived on a windy day. Nyle fitted our gear and guided us on floats until we got the hang of choppy water. She found great viewing spots, found starfish under rocks, and left time for each to do a side trip. We ended with vivid images of fish & coral and the sense that we conquered the water - with her help. Having a guide made all the difference and she's the best.

One of the highlights of our vacation. Captain and crew made it so much fun and we saw so much wildlife in the ocean! Swimming with sea turtles is amazing. Highly recommend!

We absolutely loved this adventure! Nyle was an awesome tour guide! She was very personable and friendly. She was patient with us first time snorkelers and knew the coral reefs so well. Highly recommend!

Haunama Bay was our seventh time snorkeling on this trip, and it was one of the best things we did on Oahu. Nyle is so friendly and was an incredible guide; conditions were great on the day we toured, so she led us out to the outer edge of the reef. She stopped several times to point out cool fish and make sure we were comfortable swimming in the current. The entire experience was a highlight.

Nyle is a great guide to take you around the Hanaumo Bay reef. 3 of us did a tour with her, and she kept track of all of us very well. She made sure we all had a great time and were safe. Be sure to ask her about recommendations for local beaches and restaurants!

Such a fabulous experience! 100% recommend the snorkeling and the sea turtle trips! We did both and had an absolute blast!

Awesome crew that was very knowledgeable, helpful and fun, we had a great family-bonding experience enjoying the turtles, thanks to this great company!

Was an amazing experience. Nyle took us for multiple rounds in the coral reef area. The only thing we felt needed more improvement is the photos that our instructor took while we were snorkeling

We met Nyle at Hanauma Bay for a snorkel tour. It was a fantastic snorkel adventure, Nyle’s guidance made the trip truly special. She took extra time to show my 17yr old daughter starfish and sea urchins. I highly recommend the guided tour, and Nyle in particular.

Nyle was our snorkel guide at Hanauma Bay- and she was phenomenal! Her knowledge of the area was clear- and she matched the tour to our comfort level. She was constantly assessing the ocean conditions and making sure that we stayed safe yet had an amazing time seeing the vast array of fish and ocean life. She even pointed out starfish and sea cucumbers. I would highly recommend Nyle and Pure Aloha Adventures for a guided snorkel tour of the beautiful and iconic Hanauma Bay! Would absolutely do this again!

Cannot say enough good things about this company and their turtle snorkelling tour. Easy to locate the boat, wonderful crew including sushi the dog (a star in her own right). They keep numbers on the boat minimal which is amazing, I learned so much information from the crew because of this. 10/10 recommend using these guys.

This was such an unforgettable experience and I honestly believe it would not have been the same incredible experience if we didn't have Nyle as our guide. She was amazing and so knowledgeable and went out of her way to make sure we were enjoying ourselves, safe and getting as much out of the experience as we could. She was also excited to give us great recommendations around the island which made the rest of our trip even better. The bay itself was also like nothing I had ever seen and couldn't recommend this adventure enough to anyone who wants to have an incredible life experience.

Nyle was an amazing guide! She took the time to make sure our group was comfortable and pointed out the different types of sea life to us. Highly recommend the 7am snorkel trip as it was easy to find parking and the bay was much less crowded than when we ended our excursion! Nyle also sent us a ton of recommendations of things to do while on the island and places to go eat! Thank you for an amazing start to our trip.:)

I'm thrilled to take a moment to share our group's unforgettable experience with Pure Aloha Adventures, specifically the incredible service rendered by our guide, Nyle. From start to finish, our snorkeling adventure was nothing short of extraordinary, thanks in large part to Nyle's expertise and infectious enthusiasm.

Right from our first interaction, Nyle exhibited the warmth, the spirit of 'Aloha, ' and the professional competence we were hoping to find. Her knowledge of the local marine life and ecosystems was impressive, to say the least. She was able to answer every question we had, providing intriguing insights that truly elevated our snorkeling experience.

What stood out the most, though, was Nyle's commitment to ensuring each one of us was comfortable and safe throughout the snorkeling journey. Her gentle, patient, and encouraging approach was perfect for both the seasoned snorkelers and the first-timers in our group. Nyle's attentiveness made us feel at ease, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the marvels of the underwater world.

The highlight of our day was undoubtedly the time spent exploring the vibrant coral reefs and interacting with the fascinating sea creatures. Under Nyle's guidance, we were able to observe and appreciate the local marine life in a respectful and sustainable manner.

After our adventure, Nyle went above and beyond, giving us recommendations for local eateries and attractions to round out our Hawaiian experience. This personalized touch demonstrated a level of hospitality and care that is rare to find.

In conclusion, our experience with Pure Aloha Adventures and guide Nyle was nothing short of five stars. The snorkeling adventure was a memorable encounter that left us all wanting to return for more. Whether you are a local looking for a fresh perspective or a tourist seeking to experience the best of Hawaii's marine life, I can't recommend Pure Aloha Adventures enough. With Nyle at the helm, you're guaranteed an immersive, educational, and thoroughly enjoyable journey.

Mahalo, Pure Aloha Adventures and Nyle, for giving us the adventure of a lifetime!

Just wrapped up our snorkel tour today. Great experience in Hanauma Bay. Our guide Nyle was excellent and very attentive to our group. Being a smaller group the experience was much more personal than on the large ship tours. Highly recommend this group and Nyle.

Great experience snorkeling with our guide Nyle! Went above and beyond and recommended things to do in Hawaii for us outside of the bay

We had an amazing guide Nyle for our Hanauama Bay snorkeling. She was knowledgeable, patient and very easy to interact with. We have a great time snorkeling with a guide and would highly recommend it!

What an amazing experience! We had a wonderful time at Hanauma Bay with Nyle. The day was beautiful, the visibility was fantastic and Nyle took us to many areas around the bay where we saw so much marine life! And her positive energy is contagious; I fully recommend this experience!

First time snorkeling and it was amazing. The crew, Carlos and the captain, were so friendly and informative. They made sure to protect the wildlife by keeping everyone away 6 Ft. We saw over a handful of turtles, an eel and lots of fish. Location was easy to find, got dropped off by Lyft with the coupon code they give you. Will definitely snorkel with them again.

We went on the sunset cruise on one of our first nights in Waikiki and it was great. The crew was friendly and helpful. They interacted with the guests and made things very fun.
We also went on the snorkeling trip to Hanauma Bay with our guide Nyle. She was fantastic. We greatly appreciated how patient and perceptive she was. She made us feel so comfortable and we got to see lots of fish and learned a lot too!
