Best private boat and snorkeling charter in Honolulu/Waikiki!!
A few friends and I went on a private snorkeling charter with Captain Chris and had an absolutely unforgettable time! Not only was Captain Chris (and his first mate) remarkably knowledgable about the Hawaiian marine life and local waters, he also made us feel extremely safe the whole day. Most importantly, because Captain Chris and Ocean Therapy only take out small groups, we got to see and do everything the big boats offer but in a small, intimate setting. We already can’t wait to come back and go out with Ocean Therapy again! Thank you so much Captain Chris!!
Response from the operator: Mahalo for your fantastic review! We're delighted you and your friends had an unforgettable time with Captain Chris. We pride ourselves on offering small group charters, ensuring a more intimate and personalized experience. We can't wait to have you back for another adventure with Ocean Therapy. Aloha and see you soon!

Private Waikiki 5 Hour Charter on board Ocean Therapy: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Oahu.
How much does Private Waikiki 5 Hour Charter on board Ocean Therapy cost?
+
Prices start at $2,800 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Oahu usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Waikiki 5 Hour Charter on board Ocean Therapy take?
+
Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Oahu is not rushed.
Is Private Waikiki 5 Hour Charter on board Ocean Therapy worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 46 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Oahu, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Waikiki 5 Hour Charter on board Ocean Therapy?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Waikiki 5 Hour Charter on board Ocean Therapy suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Waikiki 5 Hour Charter on board Ocean Therapy?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Oahu can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Oahu and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Waikiki 5 Hour Charter on board Ocean Therapy start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Oahu within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Oahu?
+
On Outty we rank every Oahu experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Oahu: Full or Half Day Grand Circle Island Tour, Pearl Harbor Remembered Tour, Oahu Majestic Circle Island Tour with Waimea Falls and Byodo Inn. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Oahu?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Oahu?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Private Waikiki 5 Hour Charter on board Ocean Therapy?
+
Included: Use of SCUBA equipment; Use of snorkeling equipment; Dinner; and Bottled water. Not included: Alcoholic beverages; and Parking fees $1 per hour. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Private Waikiki 5 Hour Charter on board Ocean Therapy?
+
Slip 65, front row, across from the Modern Hotel, walking distance from Hilton, Prince and other hotels, look for our ocean therapy banner Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Private Waikiki 5 Hour Charter on board Ocean Therapy offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Private Waikiki 5 Hour Charter on board Ocean Therapy?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
