Seaquest - thumbs up snorkeling - Seaquest was a great tour- stopped at two snorkeling spots. On the 1st one, fish were better towards land. At the second spot at Captain Cook, it was better to the left side of the statue when looking at it. Guides were fun. Highly recommend it. If coming from a cruise, you have to get a taxi there. Ask their cost before getting on.

Invigorating Kona ocean adventure - Captain Skyler was outstanding! He took us to see so many caves and lava holes. We learned about the history of Kona. Snorkeling was so fun! Saw a lot of fish and dolphins. Fresh fruit and snacks were delicious. Equipment was new and clean. We highly recommend and will do it again.

Invigorating day on Kona ocean waters! - Captain Skyler was outstanding. He took us to see so many lava caves, holes and fish. Hearing about the history of Kona was interesting too. We saw a lot of fish and even saw dolphins. Loved the fresh fruit and snacks. Equipment was new and clean. Overall we highly recommend and will be back.

Excellent experience! - We took the Deluxe Morning Snorkeling Adventure and had a fabulous time. We had debated between this company and one of the big boats, but all agreed that we made the right decision with Sea Quest. We have gone on the larger boats before, but this experience felt more personal and friendly. A few positives of being on a smaller boat is everything is easier with fewer people (passing out equipment, getting people on/off, etc), the ride to the snorkel sites is more fun in a small boat, you can visit some of the sea caves up close, and everyone got a close up view when a pod of dolphins and calves swam past us. I was a little worried about the lack of shade, but didn't feel overheated because we were either moving or in the water snorkeling. Both snorkel sites were excellent (Kealakekua Bay gets shockingly crowded when the cruise ships come in, but still worth it), our captain Kevin was personable and provided great commentary, and the process of making reservations/signing waivers/check in was painless. Would recommend this experience and will return to this company for our next snorkel tour.

Snorkeling over amazing coral reefs - Best snorkeling I’ve ever done. Natalie and Maggie where great tour guides It was awesome to see all the coral and the colorful fish in both bays but we also had some bottleneck and spinner dolphins chase our wake for a bit. Really cool experience

Amazing raft boat snorkel small group experience! - We took our kids on their first ocean snorkel experience with sea quest deluxe morning snorkel adventure. The small group and small boat experience was very positive and they had a wonderful time. It stops at two snorkel locations and makes multiple stops to see sea caves and other interesting things to see along the shore. Really fun experience that is well planned and coordinated with good gear!

Great time from start to finish! - The kids really enjoyed this excursion as did the adults. We started off with a 40 minute Kodiak boat out to the first snorkeling area. The boat went fast enough to create a bumpy ride but safe enough so no one could fall over. We had ample time to snorkel at first location. Our captain showed us sea caves, lava tubes and other things of interest. When we got back on, there were snacks waiting for us: freshly cut orange and pineapple slices. The second snorkel location was at Captain Cook Monument. Fish were friendly and some came up close. Great day!
