During the winter months, you may even catch a glimpse of breaching Humpback Whales and snow capped crater.

Dive in Kona not Hilo - Boat used is not meant for diving so it’s crowded and awkward to get into and out of. Dive master and captain were great but didn’t have a deck hand so they needed the guests to help often. Dive master promised pass throughs and arches but it was so murky he couldn’t find them.
