Kona Snorkeling Tour & Dolphin Watch Features
The Catamaran
The top-of-the-line catamaran you will be riding aboard is a 65-ft. long vessel with two decks, a 15-ft. high jump, and a 20-ft. water slide. The tour is great for those with wheelchairs and walkers because the whole vessel is handicap accessible. Inside the spacious lower deck you will have room to move around and relax and there will also be a full-service premium bar featuring local spirits and craft beers. Be sure to look over the side of the catamaran often as Hawaiian Spinner Dolphins are a common sight on this tour!
The Kona Coast
Some of the best snorkeling in Hawaii can be found in south Kona. The waters here are calm and clear, making it a perfect spot for spotting dolphins and honu (Hawaiian green sea turtles), as well as dozens of varieties of tropical fish. Kona is also well-known for its deep-sea fishing. Every year, the International Billfish Tournament is hosted here.
Everything You Need For A Great Time
Our boat has changing rooms, restrooms, ample comfortable seating, and freshwater showers for your post-swim refreshment. Dive into the crystal-clear waters to snorkel among vibrant marine life, relax on a floating tube, or take a thrilling plunge off the diving platform. For added excitement, try out our exhilarating 20-foot water slide!
We provide a variety of amenities for your enjoyment, including flotation devices, noodles, boards, life vests, masks, and inner tubes. Breakfast and lunch are included, ensuring you stay energized throughout the day. Join us for a day of fun, adventure, and relaxation on the beautiful waters of the Big Island.
