Wonderful Crew!
We went on the 4:30 snorkeling tour with Lucas and Captain David. Both were super knowledgeable and sweet. It was gorgeous, not crowded at all and beautiful to experience. It was wonderful. I would highly recommend and it was definitely worth the price. We are going to check out the food recommended by David next!!

Great Time!
The captain and the guy hooking up our harnesses were both super nice and helped my older mother, who is anxious about heights, feel comfortable. We all had an amazing time parasailing! Also, our original reservation was canceled due to weather and they were good with communicating to help me reschedule during our vacation. Thank you!

Guided Outrigger Canoe Tour in Kealakekua Bay

Easy to locate, even parking was easy. They had everything we needed and were very clear in where we were going and directions for our drop. The water was smooth and clear - great way to snorkel at Cook's monument. the earlier you pick up and go the better the water will be with fewer snorkelers in the water where a to of big tour companies go.

Kona Snorkeling: Beat the Crowd to Kealakekua Bay

Beautiful day on the water – dolphins, great crew, small group!
My son and I had such a wonderful time on this trip. Riding the fast zodiac boat was exciting and my 10-year-old absolutely loved it. Right at the start we spotted a family of dolphins, and then again at the end – such a special moment! The crew was incredibly friendly, warm, and entertaining, and we felt really well looked after the whole time. Everything ran smoothly and in a relaxed way. Small group, no stress, no crowds – just a beautiful, easygoing experience on the ocean. Highly recommend! Mahalo! 🐬
