Morning Snorkel on The Big Island -- Fish, Sea Turtles, Coral, and Dolphins, Oh My! - We loved this tour! Not only did we see beautiful fish and coral, but we also saw a sea turtle, and ate a wonderful lunch with a pod of spinner dolphins. I know they don't advertise lunch with the dolphins, but we were lucky enough to be at Captain Cooks when the dolphins showed up to frolic in the water! Because the boats are smaller we were able to see sea caves, lava tubes, and crabs up close and personal. The captain and crew provided great information on the area and sea life, all of the provided equipment worked well, and their tips were super helpful. We are so glad we booked this tour and felt we received more than our money's worth. Do yourself a favor and choose this company. You won't be disappointed with attention to detail and service.

Incredible, amazing day! - WOW, probably the best snorkeling experience ever, worldwide. Captain Brendan, (deck hand, lunch server, historian) was a wealth of knowledge about Hawaii, fish species etc. and made our trip comfortable and exciting. The two snorkel spots were teaming with fish and colourful coral. Delicious snacks were served after each swim and the lunch was wonderful. Thank you Brendan for an incredible experience.

Amazing snorkeling day - We had an amazing time with captain Calvin. We saw so many wonderful sights and sea creatures, the water so clear that is easy to see all the colorful coral and beautiful fish. We also found 2 sea tortoises swimming but no luck to see dolphin.

Great snorkeling trip! - This is the second time we’ve taken this tour, first on our own and then this time we were excited to bring my in-laws. Captain Brendan and crew Libby gave us plenty of time in the water at two different sites, and took great care of us. Captain Brendan gave us a great tour of sea caves on the way back, shared some Hawaiian history and mythology, and paused to hang out for a fantastic display by some spinner dolphins in the bay. Excellent day all around!

Pilot Whale Experience - Lauren was an amazing captain of our little raft boat!! We left the harbor and she took us off shore. She spotted a pod of pilot whales and got us right in the path they were heading! Shut the engines of and we just floated as they swam by!! The snorkeling locations were great with a lot of variety of fish!! We also got drinks and snacks!! Great day on the water!!

Great snorkeling tour! - Great tour and experience. Within five minutes, we saw a pod of dolphins right off the bay. Our tour guides were excellent and stopped every now and again to give us information about the coastline and the Big Island, we especially loved seeing the caves up close. The first snorkel spot was excellent, we were only one of two boats there. We are glad we picked a tour with two snorkel spots as this was our favorite of the two and less frequented. Captain Cook was also good in terms of snorkeling, but we prefer the first spot as the coral seemed untouched. My eight year-old son, who we were concerned would not go snorkeling, was very comfortable getting in with the encouragement and patience of the team. They provided snacks, fruit, and lunch. We had a fantastic experience. Would highly recommend.

Amazing snorkeling trip for all ages! - This was an amazing snorkel trip! From the reservation process (Annie) to check-in (Kayla) to the actual excursion, everyone was friendly, courteous and professional. We brought our 11 year old granddaughter and she pronounced it her ‘most fun’ excursion. Our captain, Brendan, and crew, MJ, were phenomenal. They anticipated everything we needed before we knew we needed it. They were so great with our grand who was snorkeling for the first time (and also great with her 65 year old grandparents!) The small size of their tour groups (11 on our trip) enabled them to know our names and give everyone specialized attention. The sites they took us to snorkel were like swimming in an aquarium, so many different kinds of fish! Everything about this trip was first class! Will definitely do this again when we bring our next grandchild.

Fantastic fish, captains, and lunch - The two snorkeling sites were more than wonderful with so many different and gorgeous fish (and other sea creatures). Captains Brendan and Lauren were great - helpful, knowledgeable, experienced, and really pleasant people. Our family of 5, youngest was 16, had a great time. I chose the premium tour because of the lunch. It was needed and hit the spot after the water time. Was really great to have lunch on the boat after the great snorkeling. Best part was amazing fish!

Great Experience all around! - Phenomenal experience with Captain Brendan and Captain Lauren! We went to two snorkeling sites but the amazing sites were cruising by the lava tubes, seeing Pele and the wealth of knowledge that both captains were able to provide. Book this experience! Truly memorable.

Tons of fish, friendly and knowledgeable guides. - This was a fantastic experience! We were in the water for two full hours and saw so many fish, as well as a sea turtle, during our snorkel. Our captain, Skylar, and crew, MJ, were wonderful- they were friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. They also gave us a great tour of the shoreline, complete with stories and facts. Fun boat ride, too. We loved this tour and highly recommend!
