Overview

Perfect for all size of couples, families or extended families. Experience Kealakekua Bay, the best place to snorkel on the Big Island or find a totally new and secluded snorkel area.

Choose whether you'd like to focus more heavily on world-class snorkeling, wildlife searching, or private spots.

After snorkeling, your captain has lunch and beverages for you. Hear all about the history of the area, the Captain Cook story. On the return trip, we hug the rugged coastline, and explore places Zodiacs with shallow drafts can get into! We show you natural blowholes, exposed lava tubes, and sea caves!

Kealakekua Bay

It is a marine preserve and the best snorkel spot in the state of Hawaii. When you come around the point, the Captain Cook monument will come into view. Because the Big Island of Hawaii is so young geologically, there is no dirt, sand or run-off in the bay. Here you will spend as long as you want snorkeling and exploring the reef. Captain Zodiac provides all snorkel gear, including Rx masks and flotation devices.

Frequently Asked Questions (8)

Q: Will I get seasick on 4-Hour Kona Private Charter?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
