It was so awesome being out on the water. The crew was marvelous. Captain Mike was funny and turned the boat out of the nice breeze to play with the spinner dolphins!

The crew is very friendly and attentive, with stories, drinks, and dinner! The captain called while we were on our way to ensure we could find him. The weather wasn’t ideal but that didn’t stop us from having a wonderful time!

Amazing snorkel spots
Super convenient speed boat with only 6 other guests and lots of time snorkeling each spot. Beautiful snorkeling! Lots of fish and creatures and cool rock formations. Some people were able to swim with a turtle.

Unbelievable
This was an unforgettable experience. I have 5 people i need thank. Deavon was great with the communication of details and follow up to my questions. Ricki was extremely nice and helpful getting me my gear and storing my valuables when I was snorkeling. Kekoa our captain did a great job. Greg all day did an amazing job in the water. Khalayla was instrumental in taking care of my prosthesis and helping me in the boat. Here is the story. We were the last tour of the night. We had two couples joining us for there second time for free because the team wasn't happy with what they were able to see the previous night. All of us got into the water. After about 30 minutes of only seeing one Manta for a very short time we reloaded and we were going back in. Once again the team was not satisfied we got our money's worth so everyone was invited to reschedule for free. As we were leaving there was action from a different group. The Mantas were there. Greg all day asked if we wanted to go back in. That was a no brainer yea we did and we were not disappointed. The pictures you see of the Mantas is what this team was able to provide for me. 5 stars all the way. Thanks you Greg all day and the rest of the crew.

Manta Tour and More - 10/10!!! Thanks Deavon
We had such a great experience with Hawaii Island and Adventure Tours! Deavon was our host and honestly could not have been better. He was super responsive, explained everything clearly, and anytime we had a question or issue, he took care of it right away. Communication was great from start to finish.The crew was awesome too. They were knowledgeable, friendly, and did a great job explaining everything and making sure everyone was comfortable. One person in our group had a really hard time getting off the boat, and the crew was incredibly patient and helpful, which we really appreciated.We only saw a few mantas on our first trip, but I was really impressed with how the company handled it. They offered us the chance to go again or try their Captain Cook day snorkeling trip instead. We chose the day trip, and it ended up being one of the highlights of our time there. Deavon was our host again, and the crew took us around, showed us different sights, taught us about the area, and gave us some great recommendations.The whole experience felt very personal and well organized. Even though the manta viewing wasn't quite what we hoped for, they really went above and beyond to make sure we still had an amazing experience. I'd absolutely recommend them and would definitely go with them again!

Sunset Manta Ray Tour in Kailua-Kona
A2154WKrebeccao, Sep 2026
Best excursion ever!
This was the best excursion of the entire trip. We picked this one because it was a small group and locally owned. Dustin and Bobby were excellent. With it being a small group Bobby was able to move us around to where the Manta Rays were. The larger groups that were there only stayed in one spot. The videos that Bobby took were amazing and downloaded to us as soon as we got back at no additional cost! They provided us with snacks and hot chocolate when we were finished. Much appreciated. Anyone visiting the Big Island must do this. It was so great we booked a day snorkel while we were there with the same charter.

Loved it!!!!
What a great experience!! The water was warm, the ocean was fairly calm, and we got to see mantas VERY close up! We also saw a few sharks, which was cool too. Definitely worth the money and the only way I’d get in the ocean at night.

What an amazing fun day. The crew were friendly and took us to 2 awesome snorkeling spots. They also shared the history and facts about where we were. Captain Ed, Joshua and please forgive me, I can’t remember the woman’s name. A local and it started with K. She was so nice and helpful. I recommend 100%

Really nice day on the Sea Paradise Catamaran
An absolutely awesome snorkel/catamaran trip. The crew was amazing (Captain Jon and Crew Beau, Taylor, Austin, and I unfortunately forgot the name of the fourth one, a pleasant young lady). Along the way and back they take turns giving you the Hawaiian history of the sacred locations along the shore and what occurred there hundreds of years ago amongst the native Hawaiians and with Captain Cook. The two snorkel spots were teeming with fish. The crew were steady (but not overwhelming) in offering snacks and drinks, and turning on the showers for you after coming in from snorkeling. Captain Jon was either good (or lucky, LOL) in finding pods of spinner dolphins for us to watch. Lunch during the ride back was also pleasant. A nice sandwich bar. The staff assisted me in making a Hawaiian tuna wrap!

Mike and Brooke were helpful, knowledgeable and provided an amazing tour. We were able to see all of the things on our bucket list, almost like he ordered it off our list. We saw how crowded some of the other company’s boats were and it made us glad that we chose the best/ right company. Mahalo

Kealakekua Bay Captain Cook Snorkel Exclusive

A 10/10 day with the family.
Without a doubt, highly recommended. Everything very well organized and explained. They gave us an upgrade, I imagine due to their logistics. Captain Kai and Ally were super attentive at all times. Very beautiful views and two stops for snorkeling. Duration about 4 hours. We would definitely repeat with them. 100% reliable, booking and payment. Once you make the payment, they send you the email with all the information, meeting place, timings, etc. For those of us who wear prescription glasses and do not use contact lenses, they have also planned for that!! In fact, when I finished, I bought them; they worked great, as they offer several prescriptions. A 10/10 day, thank you very much!!
