        Frequently Asked Questions

        • Will Your Boat Take Us To Captain Cook Bay?

          Kealakekua Bay is where you find the Captain Cook monument, and yes you will be able to see the monument aboard our Fair Wind II cruises. There isn’t any place called Captain Cook Bay on the Big Island.
        • What Type Of Footwear Do I Need?

          Wear whatever is comfortable. Slippers or sneakers are fine, but you will spend most of your time walking barefoot while on-board. No need for "reef walkers" since guests are not allowed to step on anything (coral, etc.) while in the water.
        • What If I’ve Never Snorkeled Before?

          We recommend the Fair Wind II for all people who are new to snorkeling. Kealakekua Bay is a very well protected bay that offers calm pool like conditions all year round.
        • Do We Need To Know How To Swim?

          Yes. We do teach snorkeling; however, you should know how to swim before going into the ocean. We also provide a variety of flotation devices for your comfort.
        • Is Seasickness Common?

          It depends on the person, if you are worried about becoming motion sick, check with your doctor before traveling for various over the counter or prescription remedies. Otherwise, we have "Sea Bands" and "Quease Ease" available for purchase in our gift shop, as well as ginger on board both boats.
        • Do You Have Prescription Masks?

          Yes, we offer masks with built in prescription lenses ranging from –1.5 to –7.0 at no additional charge.
        • Will We See Dolphins?

          There is a very good chance of seeing dolphins all year round. The most common species are the Spinner dolphins who go out to deep water at night to hunt but spend their days swimming, playing and resting in the shallow water and bays near shore. There are of course no guarantees when it comes to wildlife viewing; however, we generally encounter dolphins on about half of our cruises. Dolphins are a protected species and we do not actively pursue them.
