Overview
Perfect for all size of couples, families or extended families. Experience Kealakekua Bay, the best place to snorkel on the Big Island or find a totally new and secluded snorkel area.
Choose whether you'd like to focus more heavily on world-class snorkeling, wildlife searching, or private spots.
After snorkeling, your captain has lunch and beverages for you. Hear all about the history of the area, the Captain Cook story. On the return trip, we hug the rugged coastline, and explore places Zodiacs with shallow drafts can get into! We show you natural blowholes, exposed lava tubes, and sea caves!
Itinerary
Explore the offshore ocean world of Kailua-Kona on your way to snorkel Kealakekua bay. (15 mins)
Cruise down the coastline looking at the island from your boat, looking for marine life. (45 mins)
It is a marine preserve and the best snorkel spot in the state of Hawaii. When you come around the point, the Captain Cook monument will come into view. Because the Big Island of Hawaii is so young geologically, there is no dirt, sand or run-off in the bay. Here you will spend as long as you want snorkeling and exploring the reef. Captain Zodiac provides all snorkel gear, including Rx masks and flotation devices. (120 mins)
Explore the Southern coastline of our island, with older lava flows, secluded areas and more geological features. (60 mins)
