WHAT IS A TURTLE CLEANING STATION?
It is a reef spot where algae-eating fish clean the shells and skin of green sea turtles, so turtles return again and again. The captain picks one of three west Oahu reefs.

HOW THE CRUISE RUNS
Check in at 8:00am in front of the Marina Building at Ko Olina (marina parking is a flat daily rate). On the sail, the crew watches for spinner dolphins and, from December to March, humpback whales. At the reef you snorkel for about 45 minutes, then enjoy gourmet sandwiches and drinks on the way back.
