A Review Of Our Atlantis Submarine Adventure in Waikiki – Oahu – Hawaii

While enjoying a fabulous vacation in 🏝 Hawaii a few seasons ago, we decided to take the 🌅 Atlantis Submarines Waikiki Adventure. Yes, you can take your entire family on a {Real Submarine} ride, in a number of tropical settings around the world! 🌎 

It’s one of those opportunities that really should not be missed and definitely a worthwhile experience, for you and your family.

A Great Family Attraction in 🏖 Waikiki – Hawaii!

Our adventure took place in beautiful Waikiki Beach on the 🏝 Island of Oahu, in Hawaii.

A Brief History About Atlantis Submarines

This amazing enterprise was established in 1985 by a gentleman named Dennis Hurd, who is the president of Atlantis Submarines International.

The company’s main office is located in my neck of the woods …
🍁 Vancouver, British Columbia – Canada 🍁.

The company has since expanded worldwide, now offering these amazing submarine rides in some of the most beautiful tropical destinations in the 🗺 world!

Atlantis Submarines Fleet is Larger than the Navy

At last count, the fleet has 12 amazing submarines and have carried over 12 million passengers worldwide!  

These subs are made for comfort, with a length of over 65 feet and carrying 48 to 64 passengers in each vessel.

Outstanding!

The subs are designed for passenger riding only and no, you can’t go on an underwater sea adventure in search of enemy naval destroyers! 

You can however, enjoy and view some spectacular 🐠 sea life with your entire family, without even getting wet!

There are a couple of restrictions that must be enforced regarding submarine rides with Atlantis, again due to their stringent safety standards.

They are …

It is necessary for every passenger to travel down a practically all vertical 7-step ladder to gain access in and out of the submarine. There is also a minimum height restriction of 36″ for children to take a ride with Atlantis.”

It sounds more difficult than what it really is. Getting in and out is not too hard at all.

You just need to just take your time and be careful, especially for those people who may be in their senior years, or others with slight physical hardships.

Helpful staff are also there to assist with getting on and off the submarine and onto the transport boats.

Descend Beneath The Sea With Atlantis Submarines Waikiki

Once seated inside your Atlantis submarine and after listening to the 👨 captain and staff review safety regulations and procedures, the hatch closes and you are about to descend beneath the sea!

This is when you truly get the exciting feeling that you are actually taking a real submarine ride!

Boarding the Submarine

Atlantis Submarine Tour

It is an amazing feeling to watch the bubbles outside the windows as you make your way under the sea, and get your first glimpse of 🐙 sea life below the surface.

Almost as thrilling as when our family enjoyed a thrilling …
🏁  NASCAR Driving Experience 🏁
a few years back.

Where you actually get to drive and ride in a real 🚗 NASCAR race car at 165 mph!

As you travel deeper and the depth starts to climb, you can experience a slight sensation of; floating.

If you’re lucky as we were, you might catch a peak at a few 🐢 sea turtles along the way!

Something that is sure to excite most anyone, especially younger members in your party.

The company has erected man made reefs, sunken ships, airplanes and much more, adding to the scenic splendor of your journey. 

As well, this attracts an abundant variety of sea life for your viewing pleasure.  As a certified 🤿 scuba diver, taking an Atlantis submarine ride is as close to experiencing scuba diving as you can get.

The only difference is you get to enjoy this in a warm, dry and comfortable environment.
