Swimming With Dolphins and Turtles in Oahu

| May 16, 2012 | 22 Comments

Few places in the world as good as Oahu´s west coast when it comes to whale watching and dolphin encounters, and if this is one of the experiences in your bucket list make sure you join one of the tours that allow you to swim with dolphin and turtles tours when exploring Hawaii’s most visited island. In this video you’ll get to see what our tour with Sail Hawaii was like (an absolute blast), and if you need more info you might want to read my article on the experience too.

    I have never swam with dolphins. Though I have seen them but still it doesn’t even come close in comparison with actually swimming with them. I have Heard so much great things about dolphins and how majestic they look. Hope one of these I will get a chance to see them up close and personal. But till then I am enjoying reading and watching your experiences.

    There really is nothing like it. It is moments like this that got me addicted to the ocean. <3

  9. I’ve always wanted to swim with dolphins, but I’ve never had the opportunity! Well, I guess I could have at SeaWorld, but where’s the fun in that? Hawaii sounds much better. :)

    Swam with wild dolphins a couple of times in Australia. Also swam with turtles a couple of times in different places around the world! Amazing experiences!

    Swam with dolphins in Mozambique. It was one of the best wildlife encounters I have ever had. I think that the most amazing one has to be swimming with manatees. They are very curious and sweet.

    • maitravelsite says:

      Mozambique, of all places. Cool. Have also had in mind the manatee swim, I’ve heard they like to cuddle you and thus can drown you with all their…love. Thanks for dropping by Cristina!
