Review of Oahu’s North Shore shark cage experience, with wild sharks, expert crew, whale sightings, prices, tips, and practical details.

“My husband and I decided to do this excursion the day before (since it wasn’t a busy season). We were blown away how many sharks we got to see fun and easy it was! We also saw whales on the way out which was a nice bonus. The crew was friendly and made us feel confident. Make sure you allow plenty of time to get to the dock from Waikiki.”

Oahu: Shark Cage Dive on the North Shore

3.Shark Cage Dive on the North Shore

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 1,485 reviews · 1h 30m · from $99

Swim near Galapagos sharks off Oahu’s North Shore in a secure cage, with expert guides, clear water, whales, dolphins, and flexible booking.

“The guides were enthusiastic and friendly, the boat was comfortable, and once we got to the site we saw (without using chum) 8-12 Galapagos Sharks which were up to around 10 feet long. It was about 15 minutes in the cage which was enough time as there were waves but it was easy to see the sharks, we got some great pics and videos, and they were nearly close enough to touch. Memorable time!”

Shark Reef Las Vegas review: see sharks, rays, crocodiles, and VR ocean action. Learn about price, timing, exhibits, and who should visit.

“The experience is self-paced, within a 2 hour window. The group was not overcrowded, so there were plenty of opportunities to view every exhibit and pet the rays. The Virtual Reality portion of the experience was a roughly 5 minute dive with sharks that provided an almost 360° view of life underwater. We spent a relaxing hour checking out all the exhibits and enjoyed every minute.”

Swim with wild sharks off Oahu’s North Shore on a marine science tour from Haleiwa, with safety guidance, snorkeling gear, and expert guides.

“This was hands down one of the most incredible things I've experienced. I have always had a love for sharks and this really surpassed any of my expectations. We were very lucky the day we went out as there were about 8 or 9 Tiger sharks along with some others. Drew, Haley and the entire crew were great, everyone was very friendly they gave us lots of information along with making everyone feel comfortable and safe on this amazing adventure. Another thing that was clearly evident was that even though they may get paid to do this, this is not just a job to them, you can tell they love…”
