Has anyone taken the submarine trip in Oahu? If so, what is it like and is this something that I would need to book before arriving in Oahu. We will be on Oahu the week of September 24.
Atlantis Submarine
We did the trip on the larger sub. It really wasn%26#39;t that impressive. You don%26#39;t really see all that much. You probably need to book ahead if you want the larger sub because it was full and the one before and after us as well. It leaves on the hour. You can%26#39;t really board any earlier than your scheduled time because they are continuously going out and coming in with the ferry to the sub. WE booked ours ahead. You go to Hilton Hawaiian Village beach to a ticket booth to get your actual ticket and then wait to board. It is clearly marked and they will direct you at HHV if you get lost. We got a shave ice at a stand there and sat at a picnic table by the beach and waited until they started to board our group. Let%26#39;s just say I wouldn%26#39;t do it again but if you have never done it go ahead.

We took them out of Maui. Not at all impressed.
We went in May. We had the military discount, it was worth it for that price. We booked when we got there.
If you can snorkel or scuba you may not enjoy it that much since we don%26#39;t do either very well and we don%26#39;t really want to meet a shark face to face in it%26#39;s territory we took the sub.
I have heard that the reefs are newer and haven%26#39;t established themselves on Maui as well as the ones on Oahu.
Keep in mind you are dealing with nature and no one can guarantee what you may or may not see as the one we were on happened to catch a few reef sharks coming in and half a dozen sea turtles resting on the reef. The tour narrator said the one just before only saw a couple of turtles and some fish.
