Snorkel Tour to Captain Cook Monument Kailua-Kona, Big Island

Snorkel Tour to Captain Cook Monument Kailua-Kona, Big Island

Overview

If you are new to or have never snorkeled before this is the ideal choice! Particularly good for families with younger children or swimmers who aren’t certain if they are “seaworthy” enough for one of our longer trips.

This trip is much slower-paced and affords guests time to become more familiar and comfortable with the exciting and beautiful sport of snorkeling. Our crew will be happy to help you adjust your mask, fins, and snorkel and help you become comfortable viewing the tropical fish while using a flotation assistance device we call a “noodle”. You'll even watch for dolphins and whales along the way!

I took my sons for a graduation trip. We had already swam with the dolphins and rode the atvs. This by far was their favorite! Our captain knew his history and culture. Would definitely recommend.

What a great adventure. Our 12:15 tour was fantastic. The captain and crew did a great job getting us set up with equipment, checking on our swimming experience and comfort level with swimming. The Captain took us to see great places on the way to the cove that we snorkeled in. For those of us swimmers who were not comfortable with out some aid, he offered us noodles which made my experience fantastic. They gave us a full hour to explore and trolled around with us in case we wanted to get out at any time. Two of us had only snorkeled twice in our lifetime and this tour made us want to do it again. The snorkeling spot ‘Captain Cook’ monument was the best!
