Great time with great hosts/guides! - Justin and Jason were great. We saw pods of dolphins all around and beneath the boat, swimming, surfacing, spinning and flipping, and we saw many fish during our snorkeling. Highly recommended!

A great time on the water! - We had an amazing time with Wild Bill and Jordan. We saw abundant sea life and they told us stories about the local history all while navigating the boat with confidence through big swells. We loved the fast boat ride, the pineapple snacks, and the aloha spirit on this tour! Highly recommend!

So much fun! The captain... - So much fun! The captain and Stacy were warm, welcoming, and accommodating. They even let our 11 year old drive the boat back to the pier! Fantastic snorkeling, fun adventure. Highly recommend.

Exactly what we wanted - We really enjoyed our snorkel tour!! Our guides were great and we loved the small boat and intimate group. The snorkelling itself was perfect for us. Just would warn anyone who gets sea sick of is afraid of smaller boats this might not be for you

Great but misleading - We had an amazing experience and very much enjoyed the trip and the crew! Our only complaint was the wording of the original summery of the trip upon signing up. We picked it because it was advertised as swimming with dolphins and that is not what we got. The name and pictures are very misleading.

Great snorkelig spot - Nice tour with nice people. The ride on the boat was a bit too fast for my taste. It was hard to enjoy it. However the spot was beautiful. Thank you!!

Good but not great - We had a nice time. I’ve done many of these snorkeling adventures before and this one comparatively was so so, but still a decent value. Flippers and more snorkel time would be nice and some handles on the boat.

Worst snorkel tour I have been on. - Our time we selected was 2:00 which evidentially was not update by the company so they thought we were late. Even though 12 people out of 14 were under the same impression and were not there at 1:15. They kept saying we were late even when we showed our 2:00 confirmation which I found rude. Captain on boat took personal phone calls. We took a fast ride on a very small boat crammed full of people and snorkeled and then took a fast ride back. Paused to look at cave and lava tube but didn’t take the time to orient the boat so both sides could see. No water offered. I finally asked for a bottle. We were back in less than two hours. I have been on many snorkel tours and this by far was the worst. DO NOT RECOMMEND.
