 ~ Wild Side specializes in wildlife encounters with unheard-of small group sizes in waters home to giant humpback whales, protected sea turtles, varied species of wild dolphins and smaller whales, migratory sea birds, and tropical reef fish in coral habitats.
~ Oahu's only marine-biologist founded and led marine wildlife tours with expert insight and guidance on above-water and in-water encounters - one of the best ways to gain appreciation of Hawaii's "wild side".

~ Leave Only Bubbles - Deeper, quieter, more intimate encounters in natural environments
~ Help sight, identify, and record whale and dolphin encounters improving current understanding of the needs, care and preservation of Hawaii's marine wildlife and their habitats.
~ Leave the Crowds to Other Boats! More wildlife and snorkeling - less people. Our self-imposed limit of taking out less than 1/2 the people our US Coast Guard certified boats are documented to hold (our average group size is 6 - 16 passengers) guarantees a high standard of safety, environmental care, and personal interaction.
~ Only 6 passengers (!) on our five-star "Best of the West" cruise, 8:30 am departure (snooze in!), 3+ hours, usually an all women crew! Whether you want to swim with dolphins or spot whales from the crows nest - our tours deliver.
~ A portion of all proceeds of our adventure and wildlife vacation packages / snorkeling excursions - both above the sea and beneath the surface - are contributed to the Wild Dolphin Foundation for ongoing conservation efforts.
~ Visit our crew page (all hold advanced degrees) to view backgrounds and accomplishments - and our fleet page to view the standards we set (and hold!) for our vessels and operations.
~Unique events facilitate celebrations of life including birthdays, anniversaries,
showers, honeymoons, weddings, family retreats, girlfriend getaways, babymoons. Gift Certificates available.
