Here is a bucket-list-thing you did not even know it existed: make a dive with a real submarine into the deep just 20 minutes away from Amsterdam city centre. Just be sure any children in your party are at least 36" tall and that they can handle going down and up the ladder on their own to board and exit the sub – children cannot be carried up or down this ladder.The ultimate bucket list thing-to-do for houseboat fans Many younger kids really aren't comfortable snorkeling in the ocean, so this is the best way for them to experience our Hawaiian waters. The Submarine is great for kids – they LOVE diving to 100 feet in an actual submarine. The submarine visits sunken airplanes and shipwrecks and it is amazing to not only see this underwater wreckage, but also observe the reef system and marine life that has developed on and around it. The dives are narrated (make sure you pick a dive time that narrates in your preferred language), so you can learn about what you are seeing as it swims by. The Premium Submarine also has individual seats with backs, so if you need extra lumbar support, this is the way to go. If you like more leg room and larger viewing ports, book the Premium Submarine. Your seat faces outward so you can look directly into the gorgeous ocean blue. The interior of the submarine feels much like the cabin of an airplane – comfortably air conditioned and pressurized as you go to depth. Have any of your friends been on a submarine dive? Probably not! Some visitors choose to snorkel or dive, but for those guest who don't want to get wet, they can experience the underwater world by looking out the window of a REAL submarine! Imagine going home and telling your friends that you not only saw fish found nowhere else in the world you dove 100 feet below the surface.
Because of its isolation, our state has the highest percentage of species that exist nowhere else on Earth! Many of these unique species are fish and coral, so you absolutely must take in the marine life when you are here. Hawaii is the most isolated archipelago (fancy word for island chain) in the world.
eagle and manta rays, dolphins, even humpback whales have been spotted on this tour! Once in a while other marine life is spotted as well. During the 45 minute dive you will encounter a shipwreck that sea turtles love to call home! Many tropical fish that are found no where else in the world are attracted to a sunken airplane and other FAD's (fish aggregating devices) that have been placed on the bottom. everything you see will start to change color and take on an azure hue. For this reason children under 36" in height are not permitted, nor are guests with limited mobility who are not able to descend this ladder on their own.Īs your descent begins the interior of the sub, your clothing, your skin. A you transfer to the deck of the submarine you will descend a nearly-vertical ladder that has seven rungs. There is a scenic shuttle boat ride of about 10 minutes from the Hilton Pier to the submarine's dive site. To observe the magnificent aqua-blue ocean abundant with marine life of Hawaii from a submarine is a "must do" and a once-in-a-lifetime experience.The sub has a spacious air-conditioned interior. Your submarine journey will take you to a dive site filled with tropical fish, coral, sea turtles, and sunken shipwrecks and airplanes that attract all of this marvelous sea life. You'll descend 100 feet into another version of paradise - one hidden even from the people of Hawaii for centuries.
