We have gone to the Big Island for years as it is our favorite island with all there is to do there. One of THE BEST things we have done in all the times we have visited was taking the Body Glove Sunset Dinner Cruise. We had always wanted to do this but never booked it and this time we did it! What a great thing to do - on the water to watch to sunset, see whales, hear about the legends and history from a great guide, energetic and helpful crew, delicious food, beautiful music sung by a talented singer and musician, and an incredible sunset!!! We have told everyone we know to only book with Body Glove Cruises for a Totally awesome evening. Thank you all and we will do this again! A great way to spend an evening.

As soon as you got on the boat to cruise very friendly. And the Body Glove ship is really amazing to be on. There's plenty of space for everyone to see during whale season it's a captain sees a whale he tries to catch it. The historian did a great job and tell us the history of the Hawaiian island. The entertainment was phenomenal. The whole crew did a great job. Thank you for the experience

We took the dinner cruise out to the Captain Cook monument. What a fabulous, fun evening. We saw several whales and tons of spinner dolphins ran with our boat. From the minute we boarded, the staff was great. We expected dinner to be “just food” as with many dinner cruises; however, dinner was exceptional. The bartender was a sweetheart! The narration during the cruise was just right and the music was great. Lots of dancing and partying! We would highly recommend this company, Captain Rick and his crew! Thank you for the wonderful evening and our memories!
