Excellent sail. We all enjoyed it immensely. Just BE AWARE that Uber has a very, very difficult time finding you for pickup! You may end up standing at the loading area for an extended time. Ask me how I know.... LOL

Snorkeling Captain Cook Bay
Was a wonderful trip. The Captain was very knowledgeable and kept us all knowledgeable about safety etc. They said we were lucky because the ocean was very flat after the hurricane and the clearest it has been in a month. The snorkeling was amazing and we saw eels, trumpet fish, beautiful star fish and so much more and the water was so clear and warm. On our way back we saw spinner dolfins which was an extra bonus!

Manta Ray Night Snorkel at Kona, Big Island
jasminecO8703JT, Sep 2026
It’s as amazing as everyone says!
This was as amazing as everyone says! The crew got us in and out of the water safely! Was informative and we got to see a lot of manta rays mainly Kenzi, Janis and Santa Maria. They come so close and I got great videos. This truly is something you can only do on the bog island and I highly recommend. It started raining at the end of our snorkel session and that just added some magic.
