Hawaii Volcanoes National Park Tour & Tropical Waterfalls Sightseeing from Hilo
A Wonderful Experience
Reviewed by: Erin
I went on this tour alone and found it very informative with lots to do even if you have nobody to share it with. The other tourists were very friendly and helped me take plenty of pictures and the tour guide was a sponge of information!

Day Trip from Kona to Oahu - Arizona Memorial & USS Missouri Pearl Harbor Tour
Big Island Blast
Reviewed by: Laura
Garfield was a truly excellent tour guide. His stories made the tour a lot of fun. He managed to give a lot of detail about the history of Pearl Harbor and the Missouri and not make it seem like a history lesson. The only thing that would make it better was it it was longer. You can't see the whole island in a day, but we got to see some of the most important spots.
I would thoroughly recommend the tour and make sure to ask for Garfield.

Atlantis Kona Submarine Tour & Undersea Adventure - Descend up to 100 feet
Atlantis Sub Ride
Reviewed by: Lori & Craig
It was definitely a unique experience, and having it depart from the pier in downtown Kona was great. We saw some marine life, though I guess we expected a bit more variety of fish (mostly yellow ones). Guess the fish don't come when it's sub time though! We loved looking at the coral and seeing a whole different world under the surface.
We did buy the CD that was offered for $20 with your picture, thinking it would have a variety of marine life pictures from previous trips, but on first inspection, it doesn't appear to have much. We did get our picture on the CD plus pictures of everyone else on the ride ... Don't think it was worth the $20.
Overall, a great and unique thing to do and I'd definitely recommend it to first-timers and those with kids, but not something I'd do again I don't think.

Kona Kayaking & Snorkeling Sea Cave Adventure at Keauhou Bay - Ocean Safari's
A Good Time
Reviewed by: JJH
This was a great time. The staff was helpful and friendly in making sure you had a great time. Kayaking was a good and steady pace. Snorkeling was amazing! Being underwater with the fish and coral is a must see! Seeing dolphins playing close by is really neat too.
Cave was a bit disappointing, being only 30 feet deep, you coulnd't really go in them.
If you are up for the extreme, try the cliff jump, its definately a thrill and safe.
All in all, a good experience; great way to spend a morning in Hawaii.

Reviewed by: The Craig Family
Fair Winds Staff were very friendly and professional. Service felt very personalized even with such a large amount of people. Boat was very comfortable and we had a very pleasant journey to the Captain Cook Monument (our snorkel spot). Kids loved the water slide and high dive off the boat as much as the snorkeling experience.

Kona Kayaking & Snorkeling Sea Cave Adventure at Keauhou Bay - Ocean Safari's
Honeymoon/Vacaiton Highlight
Reviewed by: Joey Jamir
A group of eight of us, my wife and I, our 9 year old daughters, my sister and her husband, and my brother and his wife, went kayaking for the first time with Ocean Safari Kayaks, and we all agreed that is was one of the best activities of our whole trip. The staff, Mikey and Debbie, was very friendly, informative, and supportive and the locations we visited were awesome. Although not as leisurely as going on a snorkeling trip with a power boat or raft company, I'd say this trip gives you more of a sense of adventure. We were able to check out the Dragon's Throat Sea Cave, which was a bit intimidating, but with their guidance, were able to successfully enter. Then, came the snorkeling which was awesome, and most importantly the cliff dive. That is one experience I may never stop talking about. My brother, brother in law, and I all took the plunge, not to mention being upstaged by Mikey doing a spectacular backflip off the cliff. Anyway, I could go on and on about this, but its d

This was our first time to the Islands and our first Luau. We were not disappointed. We had a fantastic time and loved the entertainment. The host was great and very informative of the Hawiian and Polynesian cultures. We loved the costumes and how the dancers interacted with the guest. We upgraded our tickets and ended up sitting in the very front row. WoW! We could not have had a better time.

Staff was very knowledgable and friendly. We did the afternoon cruise and were amazed by how many people they fit onto the boat...it was huge. The snorkling was great and it was easily modifed for all ability levels from small (2 yr old) children, to the elderly. They do not provide life vests, but you dont need them. They do have waist floats if you would feel more comfortable. Great time

Awesome Experience
Reviewed by: The Sharp Family
Everyone we talked to on the Big Island said that this was the best snorkeling experience in Hawaii. After taking an afternoon sail, I can see why. The simple answer is that it has an extremely awesome crew. They are both knowledgeable and very friendly. The snorkeling gear fitted well (and we were one of the last groups to receive ours so they clearly had enough to go around) and the snorkeling was great. My children enjoyed both the diving platform and the slide (and i did as well.) Mahalo.

Great Experience
Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous
We had a wonderful time last Thursday aboard the Fair Wind. The weather could have been better on our afternoon cruise; however, that is obviously beyond the control of the crew. The snorkeling was great and it was a unique way to see the coast (and to visit the Captain Cook monument without having to make the drive.) Best of all, the crew was fanstastic--organized, efficient and very friendly. It was probably our only Hawaii activity where tips were truly vountarly. Thanks for a great time.

Wanting and Getting Adventure
Reviewed by: Kalelena & Kiana Lowry
After two weeks on Island and doing many things, we reflected on our wonderful adventure with the Fair Wind gang. From the Wahines at the check in to the crew on board an awesome time was had by all. We made friends along the way and had a much needed adventure you can't get unless you get aboard. The island is so beautiful from off shore and should be checked out by everyone in need of some true fun. The boat is clean and comfortable. The crew was really up for giving everyone what they needed and smiles and laughter where the results all around. We saw more dolphin on this trip than we did on an actual dolphin trip we went on. A win win in our book. We have a condo in Kona and go quit often. Fair Wind adventures have made a return client out of us on our future trips. Mahalo nui loa for all the le'ale'a (fun)!!!!

I was in Hawaii for a week and did a number of activities including shark cage swim, swimming with dolphins, Polynesian magic show, manta ray dive, 2-tank scuba dive, and the Polynesian cultural center, and this was my favorite of all of them. Even better...it was the least expensive!!! The snorkeling left something to be desired, but the kayaking itself and the cliff jump more than made up for that! I HIGHLY recommend this activity!

Captain Cook Afternoon Snorkel
Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous
The crew was knowledgeable, informative, and willing to accommodate every skill level. They provided a narrative about the Captain Cook Monument and a quick review of how to snorkel for the experienced participants. For those with little or no experience they provided further assistance. The waters were clear and the coral was beautiful. We spotted several different types of fish too. The fresh oranges and pineapples provided as snacks were quite delicious after being in the water for so long. All in all this was a very pleasant excursion.

We had a great time at Island Breeze. The location is excellent and the weather was perfect when we were there (April). The Mai Tai's were perfect and so was the food. Gotta try the poi!! Before the show started there was several interactive demonstrations that were fun. The show itself explained well the history and varied cultural influences of the Hawaiian islands. Overall a great evening.

First of all I would like to coment how easy it was to book this trip. Even so I made a mistake on the date, Fairwind Cruises had no problem what so ever to correct MY mistake and honor my booking for the right day and time. No hassels what so ever. when do you ever hear about that!!!
The day of our trip we arrived at Kaehou Bay and where greeted and welcomed in the most proffessional manner.Everybody was fitted with sanitized snorkel gear once boarded.Safty intructions where clear and to the point.Refreshments and snacks where plenty.
Staff was helpfull and informative. One of the guys even retieved a $100 dollar bill for a passenger that flew into the water. I hope he got a good tip, lol
The boat took us to Captain Cook Monument where there was incedible snorkling.
The ship had also a highdive and a huge slide. Kids had a ball.
One the way back to the bay delicious mai tais where served.(no host bar)
What an afternoon...............
