Kona Kayaking & Snorkeling Sea Cave Adventure at Keauhou Bay - Ocean Safari's

Great trip

Reviewed by: Miller's

This was soooo much fun. The Best part of our trip. We had a blast snorkeling, jumping off the cliff, and even the kayaking wasn't so bad. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a way to spend a fun 3 1/2 hrs enjoying the water, catching some rays, and learning about the Island. It was GREAT!

Hula Kai Kona Luxury Snorkel Tour with 2 Snorkeling Stops, Breakfast & Lunch

High Quality

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

We went on the deluxe snorkel cruise. The boat was phenomenal! The boat itself is one of the nicest I've ever been on, and I was impressed with the overall quality of everything on board. The snorkeling was great! We swam with tropical fish and even a Hawaiian Green Sea Turtle. Along the coral reef I saw an octopus and an eel. This was such a great experience!

Kona Kayaking & Snorkeling Sea Cave Adventure at Keauhou Bay - Ocean Safari's

Ocean Safari's Kayak

Reviewed by: Cheryl

We had a wonderful time on our Keauhou Sea Cave Kayak Adventure. Our main guide, Kevin, was wonderful. He was very concerned about our safety and enjoyment of the outing. We were able to kayak into a large sea cave before paddling over to our snorkeling destination. Many were adventurous and jumped off the 25 foot high cliff into the water, including my husband! One of our daughters and I snorkeled away from the main group a bit and I saw a few hundred yellow tang - more than I've ever seen before! There were many other kinds of fish there as well as Hawaii's state fish. Our oldest daughter had her snorkeling cut short when she got stung by a small jelly fish on the foot, as did one or two others in our tour, but that's a risk when in the ocean. Kevin and another Ocean Safari staff member who was there with his own tour both checked on our daughter after getting her back in the kayak. We had some snacks on the rocks near the tide pools before heading back to the kayaks for the

Ocean Sports Kohala Coast Snorkel Cruise with Lunch and Open Bar

Catamaran Black Sand Snorkel

Reviewed by: Paul

Excellent. To start, we went out on the Sea Smoke, little did we know, this was owned by James Arness (Gun Smoke TV show) and he raced this from LA to Hawaii and beat the pack by 2-days… So we were sailing on a piece of history.
Crew was awesome and extremely hospitable. Equipment was very good; food and beverages were high quality and fresh.
We arrived at the dive spot and it was amazing, sea turtles to say the least. The black sand beach was amazing and really different than the typical white sugar sand that most beaches are made of.
I would recommend this to all skill levels and all ages.
On the way back they sent up the sails and turned the engine off, we enjoyed the speed and stability that 60’ catamarans are famous for.
If you have a chance, don't miss this opportunity to view the Big Island and its beautiful coastline from the ocean… Well worth the 4-hour snorkel adventure and very convenient to find as this is anchored at the Waikoloa Marriot.

Deluxe Captain Cook Snorkeling Tour at Kealakekua Bay - Fair Wind Cruises

First Rate/Best Deal

Reviewed by: linda

I took my 85 year old mother who has some physical limitations, my 73 year old husband, and my self (62) on the midday (no meal) cruise and snorkeling adventure. It was heavenly! The staff gave a general, easy to understand lesson to all. When my mother got down the stairs she decided she did not want to go. The staff people told me to go ahead that they would take care of her. A few minutes later she was out viewing the reef with a tube and a box. My husband did the same. I was able to relax and enjoy without worries. Thank you so much for one of the most pleasurable things I have done!

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

The kayaking was not as tiring as I anticipated. My kids' highlight of the tour was the 25ft cliff jump (I only jumped the 10 ft cliff). They can't stop talking about it; truly awesome. We snorkeled on our way back from the caves. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend this tour and would do it again.

Kona Sunset Dinner Cruise to Kealakekua Bay with Live Entertainment | Body Glove

sunset cruise that wasn't

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

On July 2nd, The historical sunset cruise we took was fabulous right until the end but we were very disappointed that the captain elected to dock five minutes too soon. A fantastic sunset was in the making and if we had slowed down five minutes we would have been treated to a terrific sky. Everyone with a camera was out on deck with cameras ready, and we just pulled right in to dock watching the sun slip behind the island instead of over the water where it would have been had we stayed out five more minutes. I know for certain many others were unhappy with this handling of time. Why we had to dock so quickly is a mystery to me.

Island Breeze Big Island Kona Luau at King Kamehameha Hotel with Open Bar

Get there early!

Reviewed by: lori

It was a wonderful evening. We got there early, about 3pm, (highly recommended), paid an extra 15 dollars for front seating, and had a wonderful time. We were front row center of stage. With the early seating, we were first in line to get in, we were first in line for food and drinks, not to mention the view of the performance. The line was very long for those not paying the extra money. Food was so-so, but the dancers were stunning. My grand-daughter, 8, was absolutely enthralled with the show. Would recommend to first timers, but not sure if I would spend the money to see it twice.
