Kona Snorkeling - Beat the Crowd to Kealakekua Bay

Overview

Skim across the waves on an exciting Big Island Zodiac tour to Kealakekua Bay, site of the Captain Cook monument and Hawaii's finest marine sanctuary. Snorkel with a rainbow of tropical fish among beautiful coral gardens in the bay's clear, crystal waters. Enjoy the delightful picnic snack provided before you head out again.

Absolutely loved the snorkeling tour with Captain Jason. It was such an awesome tour, he was so professional , friendly, knowledgeable, and went the extra mile to make our experience fantastic. He stopped when there whales to see and then off to snorkeling at Captain Cooks Monument which was stunning, beautiful , and amazing. We will definitely book with Captain Zodiac and Jason next trip and will recommend you to everyone. Which we have been already. Mahalo!!

I have been snorkeling in Aruba, Mexico, Bahamas, and Dominican, but none have been this great. The captain and first mate were very knowledgeable as well as entertaining. The cove was full of fish and clear blue water, but the military grade boat was a blast. Great adventure...
