Not to be missed! - Our family absolutely loved everything about this excursion! The captain and his crew made us all feel so welcome and helped those in our group who were inexperienced. The dolphin sightings were amazing. We were so lucky to be part of a smaller group!

Hospitality was Excellent! - We had a very nice time, the hospitality was excellent. Snacks were a nice treat along with the sandwich lunch. The tour had 1 stop to snorkel where we saw various fish. It was a nice ride to be on.

What a great experience! - Michael and Luke were phenomenal hosts!
We were so happy and pleasantly surprised that they didn’t cancel our excursion since we were the only ones that went. That shows what a great company Hawaii Nautical is. VERY customer satisfaction oriented! We will definitely recommend!

Dolphins all around - I chose this excursion based on the positive reviews and we weren't disappointed. As soon as we got there, we were told that my family of 5 was the only ones who booked, so we were upgraded to the private charter. Michael and Gretchen were amazing and we enjoyed their positivity. Even though we only saw one sea turtle, we encountered 3 dolphin pods, some even swam near my kids. It was the most fantastic day my family had ever had. They also provided prescription masks so my son and I could see. That was above and beyond what I ever expected. For the first time I could actually see the fish when snorkeling! After 55 minutes of snorkeling, the turkey and cheese sandwich was delicious. There was plenty to drink and lots of snacks. Hands down the best excursion we've done and we will do plenty more with this company.

Beautiful Kona snorkeling and sailing - We took the snorkel trip out of Kona, and we had an amazing time! The catamaran was spacious and clean, and lots of fun to sail on as we explored around Kona and found a great snorkeling spot. There was not much wind that day, so no sailing, but the engines worked great.
The wildlife did not disappoint. We saw Hawaiin spinner dolphins on the way to snorkeling, and lots of fish and sea turtles at the snorkeling site. We had a nice packed lunch on the trip, along with a few tasty adult beverages. An awesome experience!

The Ocean is magical. - Well it was an awesome experience. The only thing that stunk about it was the only turtle we saw was while we were in the boat. We all know, you take your chance. But we saw the spinners dolphins and other great sea life. The captain and the crew member were so nice and the food was great. Being in the ocean is so fun as always and Thank you to the crew.
