Great, comfortable, easy going experience all around - We had an amazing experience. The crew was super friendly and helpful. It felt like we had a private charter. The day we went there were only 13 passengers besides the crew. This made for an extra comfortable experience. The breakfast was nice. We loved the lunch as well. The snorkeling spot was superb. I would recommend to anyone to go on this tour.

KONASTYLE SNORKELING - I don’t usually leave reviews, but because our experience was so amazing, I had to share. We planned a day trip with KONASTYLE for the Kealakekua Snorkel and Sail excursion. We were a big party of 8, and at first, I thought it was a little pricey — but wow, it was worth every penny. The captain and staff were all so amazing and friendly — what a great group of people! A light breakfast and lunch were provided, with soda and water included, and alcoholic beverages available for purchase. The snorkeling was incredible, with clear, beautiful waters. Hands down, it was the best adventure of our whole vacation — I didn’t want it to end! 10/10 experience. Thank you, KONASTYLE team! You’re doing a great job — keep up the amazing work!

A relaxing day along the gorgeous Kona Coast - We had a fantastic time on the water. Cruising along the Kona Coast is gorgeous, seriously one of the most beautiful locations in Hawaii. Snorkeling at Kealakekua Bay, a marine sanctuary was lovely & so relaxing. Our captain & crew were great, super friendly & kind. We really enjoyed & appreciated the shared stories about the area (we love learning about the history of places we visit).

Great crew, great boat! - The crew is great. The boat is comfortable (some others are not). They take time to share Hawaiian culture and history with you. They even let our kids steer the boat. Five stars. Highly recommend this boat and Kona Style for any of your Kona snorkeling and night manta outings.

Amazing Snorkeling and Sailing experience - My fiancé and I took the morning sail and snorkel. We had an amazing time. The captain and all the crew were so helpful and friendly on shore and on the boat. We were met and checked in by Kamakani (spelling 🤷🏼) and Alex. They were both helpful to get us signed in and ready to walk over to the boat. We had Captain Dan, Bart, Dion and Kamakani as our crew for the ride. It was a spectacular day. They had yogurt, fruit and granola options on our way out. As well as drinks and a (paid) bar. I get a bit seasick and everyone was kind and offered me assistance. Even with feeling ill, the ride was gorgeous. We loved snorkeling in Kealakekua Bay. There were a lot of other boats and people, which was to be expected. But it was still incredible. When it was time, we returned to the boat for lunch and a ride back. Along the whole trip Hawaiian history and stories of the area we shared. This was such a great added element. Overall we HIGHLY recommend KONASTYLE. We may even book a second ride to see the Manta Rays through them!

Relaxing , Great Service, easy water ingress/egress - The shop where you check in is just across the street from where the boat is docked. Parking is a little challenging down in that area, but just follow the instructions they provide. Very impressed with the boat and the service. Are they recommend anyone looking for a leisure excursion to see some decent coral reef, and some amazing sea life.

Would Go Again! - Amazing crew and beautiful spot! The boat wasn’t crowded at all which made it feel like a more personal experience. We had a yummy breakfast and a great lunch after snorkeling where we saw a ton of fish, coral, and eels. On our way in and out we saw dolphins and also stopped at a few spots along the coast to learn about coral restoration and Hawai’i History! Would highly recommend!
