2-Hour Dolphin Watching and Double Reef with Snorkel in Hawaii
A2154WKrebeccao, Sep 2026
Spinning dolphins
We first did the Manta Ray night snorkel with this charter and loved it so much we booked a Dolphin Watching and 2 reef snorkel. It was just us 5 so we had a great time and Brian was very knowledgeable. We would have had a great time even if the boat was full which held 10 guests. The 2 reefs were excellent. The boating community is very close and help each other out. We were next to a scuba charter and they told Brian which reefs were good that day. Brian told us about the different types of dolphins and we saw a large group of dolphins with babies! They were jumping and spinning. It was amazing.

Top notch dive company!!!

Two Tank Morning Reef Dive and Snorkel

Top notch dive company!!!
Aquatic Life Divers offers a fantastic experience! I’ve now dove with them several times and have also dove with other companies on BI. ALD is by far the best experience. The boat is easy to board and de-board. It’s quite comfortable with a lot of amenities. The dive gear is top of the line and very well maintained. Where ALD really shines though is the staff. They go above and beyond to make the trip a memorable experience. I highly recommend them for both diving and private charters.

Great day fishing in Kona
Awesome day with RJ and his crew on Bite Me 6 on a shared 4 hr trip. Brought in a yellow tail tuna. After getting back to the harbor they carved it up and sent everyone home with instructions to make sashimi or grill. Would def do again.

Tight lines!
Had a great day out on the water with Captain RJ, Cam, and the rest of our group. It was a little rough out there due to the recent storms, but felt well taken care of. Managed to hook into a nice yellowfin tuna, which was harvested and shared with everyone. Remember folks, it’s called fishing, not catching!

FrancoisRobinet, Sep 2026
Best diving experience
I am an active divers with more than 500 dives and all my family dives with me. We went diving in Kona, Hawai with Aquatic Life Divers and it was the best experience ever we had with a diving center. Excellent dives, with a lot of variety and various level of difficulty. Very good service, very competent and friendly team (instructor, DiveMaster, captain, admin…). The boats are very comfortable and the equipment is top tier. Don’t miss the night dive Manta Ray dive, which is not a difficult dive, but a very spectacular one.

The fish didn’t cooperate thanks to Hurricane Lala, but the crew was fantastic and the experience was still great. Clayton told us great stories and was a pleasure to hang out with, even if we didn’t get a single bite. Always next time!

We have a phenomenal day...
We have a phenomenal day out with Dean and Clayton on the Ms Conduct boat! We were notified in advance that the fishing season has been slow so far and that ended up being the case for our trip out in the water. This did not take away from the experience at all though as Dean and Clayton were very knowledgeable and hospitable! The weather was great and the sky mixed with the deep blue water will be something we will remember always!

Luxury Private Boat Charter in Big Island Hawaii

Wonderful family adventure with Joe and Ko
This was amazing in every way. We come to the Big Island every summer from New York. We cannot wait to get out on the water. Joe was hilarious and a wealth of knowledge Ko was a master captain and took us to two amazing places to explore the water. We were amazed how we saw baby reef sharks in a cave. They were both so great to my daughter and husband but extra special to my grandchildren who are almost 5 and almost 3.
