A great day spent on the "Ocean Encounters" for the whole family. Nine of us, ages 1 to 66.
Saw dolphins on the way out of the harbor and soon caught a blue Marlin. After 18 minutes of reeling, caught and released a nice fish.
Fished our way over to Kealakekua Bay and snorkeled for an hour. A really great place to snorkel, especially as the bottom dropped off to a good depth.
Later caught a 2 foot Yellow Fin Tuna which put up a good fight and fed us for the next 3 days. Yum!
Nice day to be out and seeing the island from 3-4 miles out was great.
Charlie and Sean are great, especially cleaning the tuna and telling us how to cook it.

Aloha,
Thank you for sharing your excursion with us, sounds like you had an amazing day. Fishing/snorkeling combo charters are very popular for us and a good way to spend the afternoon. The crew on Ocean Encounters is the best!
Blue Marlin, that's a fish of a life time, and very exciting to catch! All in all sounds like you had a great day.
Once again thank you for your review. We hope you had a good vacation and safe travels home.
Mahalo,
