Absolutely PERFECT!!!! - Everything about this excursion was perfect!!! Callum, Erica and Brianna were happy, kind, knowledgeable and so so fun!! The boat ride was smooth when it was supposed to be and super fast and wild when that was the objective. The snorkeling spots were awesome, we saw so many fish and coral, dolphins, sea turtle and even were lucky enough to see a whale shark which is totally not normal so we know how lucky we were!!! The nonalcoholic drinks were yummy and plentiful and so was the food/snacks. It was an amazing experience from beginning to end 10 out of 10 for sure!

Enjoyed snorkeling with my family - Our family of five, including children aged 5 and 10, participated in the tour. Surrounded by friendly staff, we were guided smoothly and safely through breakfast and lunch, and everyone stayed together, creating a sense of unity. The attentive staff made sure to check in with each customer during meal service, which was reassuring. Additionally, when the children were swimming in the ocean and returning to the boat, the staff waited and assisted with everything. This is definitely recommended!! The hamburgers made by the chef were delicious. I think they were even better than those served at a restaurant. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone planning to visit Kailua-Kona. We highly recommend this company, especially for families. Thank you very much. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)

A plus plus - Captain Calvin, Captain Kai and McKenna were all top notch people. They perform their tasks with customer service and safety in mind. We had a small group and they all sought to provide extra knowledge regarding the points of interest and sea life. McKenna was always on point in the water with superb situational awareness of our group’s location. She was also continuously sharing her knowledge in the water and on the boat. Upon our having to depart we spent extra time for a large amount of spinner dolphins in the area. I was able to get some phenomenal images due to our lingering. We also took extra time on the return trip when we are believed to have encountered a beaked whale. Enjoyable and Class A experience.

Great Experience, nice crew, amazing wildlife! - Cpt. Calvin steered us to where the wildlife was, Kai took great care of us passengers and McKenna pointed out the things we could see in the ocean. It was a truly remarkable experience and we were able to see so many species. Topped of by a huge school of dolphins that were very playful and curious. Very recommendable, we‘d do it again in a heartbeat.

Great snorkel trip - We took this tour from 8:30am-12:30pm and it was wonderful! Got to snorkel in two different spots that were full of all kinds of fish. Even spotted dolphins in 2 different spots and got to watch them play. Staff was great and provided everything we needed, from gear to snacks and a sandwich lunch. Was great to do an early morning activity and be back to the hotel with plenty of time to still enjoy the rest of our day.

Epic day with great vibes - This was a pretty epic tour. The boat ride is fun / fast. The tunes were blasting. The snorkel spot was great. They were awesome with my mom who has some mobility struggles. The crew was great. The gear was pretty solid. It all added up to an awesome morning on the water. Only thing I would change is that the included sandwich was kind of plain. Oh, and I got to show my wife an octopus on the reef. Fun times! Erica was great! Hope she has fun rafting!
