Boat Snorkel –Dolphin and Tropical Reef Rafting Adventure

Overview

Looking for a fun and memorable experience? Come enjoy our guided Zodiac Dolphin Adventure and Tropical Reef Snorkel along the pristine Hilo coast! Our tour departs from the Wailoa Boat harbor in Hilo and ventures beyond the breakwall to explore and snorkel the scenic coastline on our 20 foot inflatable zodiac. Enjoy the iconic lush coastlines that Hilo has to offer, and explore untouched coves where pods of dolphins hide away and often play in our wake. Stop off in one of these idyllic coves to snorkel over spectacular and untouched reef structures and sand patches, and immerse yourself in East Hawaii's diverse sea life. Our coastline is renowned for the abundant sea turtle population, and our brackish water bays and lagoons are home to a wealth of sea life including octopus, eagle and manta rays, eels, corals, and tropical reef fish! Your captain and snorkel guide will teach you all about the abundance of sea life below, and will ensure you have a fun and memorable experience.

Captain Kimo and Dylan were fantastic. Super knowledgeable and super supportive. We had everything we needed and were completely safe at all times. They took exceptional care of my 77 year old mother. We saw turtles and tons of fish and gorgeous coral. We were within an arms length to amazing spinner dolphins. Totally recommend without any reservations! Thank you for a wonderful adventure!

Aloha Jennifer, Thank you for your 5 star review, we are thrilled you had such a wonderful excursion. Our Dolphin Adventure and tropical reef tour, is one of our most popular tours. The spinner dolphins are very curious with snorkelers. and being the only dive/snorkel boat on the east side of the Big Island, we have the opportunity to offer our guests uncrowded and unique experiences not found in other parts of Hawaii. We invite you to join us again on another of our exciting tours. FYI whale watching is right around the corner.

So I think the company needs to change their description for this tour. We did not go to Blonde Reef, but instead went to Puhi Bay. We also were not on a 20 foot inflatable boat, but a much larger vessel. Other than the poor description, our guide Jordan and our captain Kimo were awesome! They made sure everyone was comfortable, held detailed safety briefs, and explained where we were going and what we would expect to see. Jordan really tried to lead us to some great snorkeling spots in the Bay. The boat is basically a charter, so we had divers with us as well (they were in a different part of the Bay altogether). Overall a very memorable experience!

Nicolas, thanks for the review and kind words. Our inflatable boat is in for some repairs so you were upgraded to our 28 foot dive boat. Blondes reef runs under the break water to Puhi bay which is why it was named for the reef. Glad you had fun. Look forward to taking you on your next adventure!
