Kona's Deluxe Snorkel - Beat the Crowds to Captain Cook and Place of Refuge

Kona's Deluxe Snorkel - Beat the Crowds to Captain Cook and Place of Refuge

Overview

Join us to see the underwater beauty near Captain Cook's Monument and Puuhonua O Honaunau National Historic Park. Usually, at this time of day, the waters of the Kona coast are crystal clear and offer great visibility. View over 100 different varieties of tropical fish along with an occasional reef shark or sea turtle. These lively snorkeling spots are home to a variety of marine life.

Your Crew will teach you a little Hawaiian history along the way. As you cruise, you will enjoy spectacular views of Big Island's rugged coastline, along with views of sea caves and lava tubes. If you are lucky, you may spot a pod of dolphins or a whale, which can be found here year-round (humpback whale migration is seasonal!)

I saw an eel at Two Step Beach. Lots of colorful fish. Captain Cook monument spot was a nice spot too.

Captain Craig was super! This was a small group, with the Capt. and we spent quality time at Captain Cook and Place of Refuge. The fish views and historical tidbits, and time spent viewing sea caves and lava tubes, (AND WAVES!) were exceptional. Now I want to do the night manta swim! I also want to do this trip AGAIN!

My family had a wonderful time and the guides were knowledgeable, laid back and fun. Our 8 and 11 year old boys really enjoyed it. We even had a pod of spinner dolphins swim under us.
