About this experience
As you swim off of the coast of the world famous Waikiki beach, you’ll realize you’ve found your very own piece of paradise. Just far away enough from the bustling travelers and crowded beaches, the crystal-clear water will bring a calmness and serenity like no other. For those who prefer to take in the views from the comfort of the catamaran, the Moana boasts ample cushioned seating in all areas of the vessel, along with two netted lounge areas perfect for sipping on an ice cold refreshment and enjoying the music. After our swim, we set sail and race past the most photographed location in all of Hawaii, Diamond Head Crater*. Along the way we might even see Hawaiian Spinner Dolphins or flying fish (Malolo)*.
