Patient and respectful guides make this company first rate.

This was a wonderful experience for us as first time snorkelers. The three employees that helped us with our gear, and took us out in the water, also gave very helpful, snorkeling tips. They were all very courteous, respectful, and patient even to this group of six seniors. we definitely recommend this company.
Fantastic experience

Excellent trip! You canoe for about 20 mins to Captain Cook monument then just have the best time seeing all kinds of wonderful sea creatures. Drinks and snacks are provided and you aren't forced to work too hard rowing (go at your own pace). We even encountered dolphins while canoeing our way back!
Great way to visit Kealakekua bay

We enjoyed taking the outrigger canoe trip. It was a much better experience than a large boat snorkel tour. Our guide provided history of the area and directed us to the best snorkel locations. We were able to get to the reefs before the crowds and had plenty of time to snorkel.
Fabulous family canoe snorkel trip

This was a fabulous trip (my 10 year old son’s favorite activity of our whole trip). We saw dolphins and snorkeled to see beautiful fish in the marine sanctuary. Our guide was knowledgeable about Hawaiian history and helped with everything from getting my son’s flippers on to ensuring we timed our return into the cove with the waves so we’d go in smoothly. The trip was a great way to see the coastline and enjoy the scenic cliffs along the South Kona shoreline. I’d recommend this as a top activity for anyone who wants an experience on the water in the natural beauty who might not be up for kayaking. They had dry bags so we could keep our stuff dry. Great experience- would definitely do it again!
Best Time Ever

As soon as we set out on our adventure, we saw spinner dolphins. The water was almost like glass, a very calm day for us. We snorkelled by the Monument and saw coral and lots of fish. Very pleasant experience, and we recommend doing this on the Big Island.
