Dolphin Watch and Reef Snorkel Adventure

Overview
Every morning, the Kona Dolphins return to the island after a night of feeding. They follow the same course along the coast to their favorite resting place in a sandy cove. We will watch them ride the bow and surf the waves, and it’s not uncommon to see over a hundred.
But that’s just the beginning…after watching the dolphins, we will find a perfect reef snorkel for you and your family. This adventure includes all gear (mask, snorkel, fins, wet suit if requested), snacks, beverages and a delicious lunch. Also provided sunscreen and towels.

We had a great time! Our captains Lawrence and Colleen were fabulous. The way Laurence talks about the history of Hawaii was the best story telling we've heard so far being here! Colleen took wonderful care of us. The only recommendation would be to add some music to the boat! Having some great mood music would have really set the mood for the day. Would return!

Absolutely awesome trip. Crew very experienced and knowledgeable. Only my niece, nephew, myself and a father and daughter on the trip. Due to unforeseen circumstances we had to snorkel at a different location but it worked out perfectly because it was just us! Excellent provision of food and drinks Dolphins galore!

Aloha, Thank you for the review! Glad you had an amazing dolphin sighting and a semi-private charter as well. We tend to keep our group size low so that we can give the highest quality customer service. Please look us up again when you return to Kona. We have the manta ray night snorkel that truly is a must-see activity in Hawaii. Mahalo, Brennen on behalf of the entire KOA crew

Quite unique experience ! Hiked down to captain cook monument and ran out of water. Met kona ocean adventures and they helped us! Amazing people and gave us water when we needed it most. Most definitely would recommend this crew !
