When you say summer vacation, there are a lot of possible places that you can think of, and Hawaii is probably one of those. Many people frequent this archipelagic state for various reasons, such as delicious dishes, friendly locals, and scenic views. But aside from these three, the numerous clean beaches are what lure people in. With its geographical location in the Pacific Ocean, it is no wonder why many beaches surround this state. 

 

Hawaii is indeed a perfect summer getaway destination because aside from the beautiful things mentioned above, this paradise also offers many activities you and your loved ones can certainly enjoy. Among all the fun things to do in Hawaii is dolphin snorkeling. 

 

Since many beaches surround Hawaii, it is only natural to encounter many diving tours across the state, but Oahu is undoubtedly the ideal island for snorkeling. There are plenty of snorkeling tours on Oahu for different skill levels. So it does not matter whether you are a newbie or an expert, there will be a snorkeling spot for you. 

 

Ideal months for dolphin snorkeling

While dolphins are year-round residents in the waters of Hawaii, the ideal months for snorkeling with them are between April to May and August to November. As for professional swimmers and surfers, they prefer swimming with the dolphins between November and March when the water is cooler and rougher.

 

Besides the months, it is also important to note that dolphins are most active at the crack of dawn, between 10 AM to noon, and from 2 PM until dusk. You can use a pair of binoculars or telephoto lenses to spot these beauties much easier.
