• 78-7130 Kaleiopapa St - We offer three different times, each being 3 hours long. These trips provide the longest snorkel times at Kealakekua Bay with approximately an hour of snorkel time. This adventure promises views of 100’s of different varieties of tropical fish along with an occasional “Honu” (Hawaiian green sea turtle). Your Captain will share Hawaiian History and get you up and personal with sea caves and lava tubes. If you are new to or have never snorkeled before this is the ideal choice!
  7:00 a.m.: Beats the crowds to Kealakekua Bay/Captain Cook Monument. We are often the first boat in the bay and guests get time to enjoy the reef with limited interruption.
  11:30 a.m.: Designed for those who want a later start and enjoy the warmest part of the day.
  12:30 p.m.: Geared for those who want to escape the crowds. This lazy afternoon snorkel is a more relaxed adventure to the best snorkel spot along the coast.

Snorkel participants must have swim experience.

• Snacks, fruit, juices and bottled water
• Sightseeing along coast of sea caves & lava tubes
• Pool Noodles
• Historical narration of Captain Cook’s fate at Kealakekua Bay

• Gratuities for your crew always appreciated
• Please bring towel and cover-up
• Use reef safe sunscreen (zinc based is recommended- no oxybenzone and octinoxate. lotion, no spray)

For those new to snorkeling or trying it for the first time, this is the perfect option! It’s especially suitable for families with young children or swimmers who are unsure about their “seaworthiness” for our longer excursions.

This trip is leisurely paced, allowing guests to become more acquainted and at ease with the thrilling and beautiful activity of snorkeling. Our crew is eager to assist you in adjusting your mask, fins, and snorkel, and will help you feel comfortable observing the tropical fish while using a flotation aid we call a “noodle.” You’ll also have the opportunity to spot dolphins and whales along the journey!

We provide three different time slots so you can select the one that best suits your schedule. Check-in times are available at 7am, 10:30am, and 11:30am.
