Sorry, couldn't resist. This was a fabulous "3 hour tour", and we didn't end up on Gilligan's Island. We saw a manta ray, lots of flying fish, and dolphins! The narrator was informative, the singer entertaining, and the crew very accommodating (they offered to carry your food to your tables, and I saw them getting drinks from the bar for the older clients). We enjoyed the food, and there was plenty of it. Lots of places to sit (tables & benches), both in the shade & in the sun (they even offered sunscreen if you forgot yours). They have a appetizer buffet on the way to the Bay, and then serve the dinner buffet while floating in the Bay. Sunset was gorgeous (I know they planned it that way...lol), and it was fun seeing Kailua-Kona all lit up on the way home.
We bought discounted tickets through Costco, and it was real easy to redeem them through Body Glove - just call ahead.

Aloha epbkm,
Thank you so much for this five-star review! In order to avoid jokes like this in the future, we are considering changing our tour time to 2 hours and 55 minutes.
Here's a note about Costco for the TripAdvisor community: Please call ahead to be certain that we have availability on the date you'd like to book for the tour you desire. Also, our children's price is from 6-17 years of age, and is not reflected on the Costco ticket price schedule at all. Sometimes we offer a discount of 10% or 15% across an entire reservation for various reasons (AAA, for example), and can discount the child's price, which is already less than the Costco price, in those instances. We do not apply discounts to children's tickets in combination with Costco tickets.
So, if you have a group with several children, Costco might not actually be the most cost-effective option. To find out more, give us a call, or stop by one of our ticket counters on Ali'i Drive and we'll give you the low down on not just our tours and prices, but those of other activity providers island wide!

P.S.- We really do appreciate you taking the time to review!
