Luxury Private Boat Charter in Big Island Hawaii
Thomas_H, Aug 2026
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.

Great day, amazing guide
We had the BEST time on this trip! Rebecca called me a few days before to confirm our hotel and timeline and to go over the itinerary. She picked us up at our hotel right on time. She was a whole vibe, her energy and enthusiasm made everything even better. She told us about the island, had podcasts about Pele and island legends at the ready for us to listen to on the long drives, and knew all the best spots for snacks. We got to see Black Sands Beach, enjoy some generous samples of macadamia nuts and coffee, got a fresh made pizza and lau lau (which was awesome), saw a rainbow over the volcano at the national park, and had a tour of the island. It was fabulous and we just loved Rebecca, can't recommend her enough.

There were 8 of us on a family trip to hawaii and we had the most amazing day with Morgan as our driver/tour guide. He was so fun, knowledgeable about the island, and the best photographer. We saw so many amazing sights and he was fully prepared with all of the things we needed for our beach time. The van was so comfy and the day flew by (in the best way) ! Highlight of our trip in Hawaii. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to see all the cool things Hilo has to offer.
