Make your way to Sea Life Park Hawaii, located just 15 miles (24 km) from Waikiki. Make sure you arrive at least 30 minutes before the start of your reserved activity — either a shark swim or sea lion swim — that you'll select when booking. Each program lasts about 45 minutes, including an orientation and up to 30 minutes in the water. Changing facilities are available before and after your encounter. Admission to the park & transportation from select hotels is included; see a list of attractions in the Itinerary section below.
Option 1: Shark swim
Dare to venture into a 300,000-gallon tank of water, with only a wire mesh cage between you and 10 sharks, which include up to four different species native to Hawaii. Provided with specialized equipment for easy breathing underwater, you’re immersed for 20 to 30 minutes with some of the most feared and misunderstood predators on Earth. There is simply no substitute for the intense thrill of this extreme up-close encounter!
Option 2: Sea lion swim
Take advantage of the unique opportunity to swim with a sea lion in a playful, educational, interactive atmosphere. During your 30 minutes in the water, you can pet a sea lion as it swims underwater. Act like a trainer as you learn how to communicate with the sea lion using hand signals, and receive a performance and kiss! Photos are available for purchase.
