Little Ocean Tours a.k.a Honu Program
A collaboration between One Ocean Diving and Research and Clark Little! Our sea turtle program is based on the North Shore of Oahu. We are currently only offering shore snorkels so we will travel by van to these locations. Come join us and learn about, swim with, and photograph our Hawaiian green sea turtles all while learning about their behaviors and ecological importance. Our program is designed and lead by marine biologists, conservationists, photographers, and divemasters. You will be in the care of experts who know the best places to enjoy time with the Hawaiian green sea turtle. Masks, snorkels, fins, and sunscreen are provided. We also have a water jug with reusable cups if you are in need of water. Please try to refrain from bringing single use plastic because #PlasicIsTheRealKiller We are spending the majority of our time on the reef so please bring biodegradable sunscreen! GoPro is INCLUDED in your tour! Professional photos are an additional charge. We guarantee you will get to see and swim with Hawaiian Green sea turtles. Our unique program benefits local and international research and conservation efforts for turtles and marine life. Click the "BOOK NOW" tab under the tour you want and come join us for the two hour trip that departs from Haleiwa harbor on the north shore of Oahu.
