The perfect start to our Hawaii trip!
An incredible experience! The guides were so friendly and knowledgeable. We loved kayaking and snorkeling - we saw so many fish and a couple of octopuses! Would definitely recommend the morning tour before it gets too hot or busy. A great price considering how long you get to snorkel, the delicious lunch, and the souvenir steel water bottles. They even let us keep our snorkel gear for the rest of the day and return it to their shop the next morning. The perfect start to our Hawaii trip!

Two Tank Morning Reef Dive and Snorkel
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.

Beautiful tour great guide
My experience on this tour with my fiancé was wonderful. Evan and Kona boys are some of the kindest people I’ve met. They took the time to give us some history on the area and food recommendations. Evan did a great job showing us the best spots to snorkel and we got to learn a lot about the land we were visiting. The early morning was beautiful and there was almost no one else there since we were able to get out on the water right on time.

Unforgettable experience with Torpedo Tours
We enjoyed our experience with the daytime Aquatic Safari trip so much that we followed up with the sunset Manta tour; Mike and Rachael did an incredible job of making us feel comfortable (especially those of us a little more "snorkel-challenged"), and made the trips unforgettable. This is an independent business with over 30 years experience; we definitely recommend using Torpedo Tours!

Manta Ray Night Snorkel and Dive
Rocky_Z, Aug 2026
First night out in Kona; dolphin sightings, Malolos, ticklish fish, and dancing mantas !
Rachel and Mike are the kind of guides I would actually vouch for and recommend to anyone. It was such a pleasure and it felt like we really had a lucky trip. It was educational, light hearted , and awe inspiring ; the boat ride there is a beautiful time, the boat ride back was so serene below the moon and stars, and being in the water with those luminescent lights below that burning sunset all while manta rays are twirling and dancing below you with various silver blue yellow fish tickling your legs make it such a strong recommendation I’d have to give. Do bring a towel though ! It may be a little chilly on the way back. Thank you Rachel, thank you Mike ❤️❤️

So good we went back & did it a 2nd time!
We went on this Kayak/Snorkel tour of Kealakekua Bay with Kona Boys years ago & loved it so much that we went again on this trip and took our kids with us. It's seriously one of the very best experiences we've had on the Big Island & the best snorkeling we've done anywhere so far.We were given a warm welcome & great instruction before heading down to the bay. At the bay, Evan was our guide...and he was excellent! He was friendly, gave great instruction, and made us all feel comfortable.Don't miss this one...and definitely book it with the Kona Boys...they are the BEST!

Great experience and excellent instruction for beginners
My 10-year old daughter and I did a surf lesson with Charles. He was amazing. She stood up on her very first wave! Can’t recommend highly enough for the quality of instruction and the experience. My daughter is hooked and immediately started talking about the next time we’ll go surfing!
