Cruised from the main dock in Kona to the Captain Cook Monument in Kealakekua Bay. Excellent narration of all the historical and cultural sites as we cruised. In between the narration, a wonderful musician named Makua played Hawaiian and contemporary songs. Dinner was very good and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Saw spinner dolphins, whales, and a beautiful sunset.

Aloha Sandy86, We are so glad that you enjoyed your time on the Historical Sunset Dinner Cruise! We love being able to provide a fresh and new perspective of the Big Island of Hawai'i for all our guests. And what better way to do this than to be serenaded by a local musician? Not to mention you were able to see some of our aquatic friends! How fun! Thank you for joining us and we hope to see you again soon! Mahalo, Derek Williams @ Body Glove Adventures

Aloha BrianS170, Thanks for joining us on the Historical Sunset Dinner Cruise! We are glad that the parking was not enough to draw away from the experience you had while aboard the Kanoa II. While we do offer free parking up in the shopping center we are located in, we cannot always guarantee stalls will be available since we share the lot with the rest of the businesses. We hope the next time you come out with us that the parking is not a hassle! See you again soon! Mahalo, Derek Williams @ Body Glove Adventures
