Such an enjoyable way to boat and snorkel - I recommend this company and our crew (we had Captain Rick and Gabe). The adventure was a blast riding in the Zodiac to get where we needed. They were informative and helpful (and with a great sense of humor) - they obviously love what they do. The snorkeling (again with guiding and advice from crew) was amazing - so much to see and just the right amount of time. They provide the equipment and provide lunch/snacks/rehydration on board. It is a 5 hour trip and you can expect to spend quite a bit of energy (and can get lightly pounded by the waves while traveling at speed to get to/from destinations), so this isn't your trip if you have any limitations...but if you are in shape and want to have a great time, go for it! (Wear lots of sunscreen...they do have some to share.)

Great Snorkeling Experience - Our family of 15 had a wonderful snorkeling experience with Brenna & Fatu. She is a great captain and he provided exceptional support on our trip. This was my wife's and my third experience with this company over the past 21 years and we would definitely do it again!

Marco is the best guide!!! - WOW we highly recommend booking a private 5 hour zodiac tour. And request Marco!!! He was amazing! We did this with our 2 teenage daughters. This was their favorite thing we did on our trip to Kona. We had the best snorkeling, seeing caves, and a bonus of seeing short fin pilot whales and oceanic white tip sharks. BEST DAY!!

Snorkeling trip - The trip exceeded our expectations. Captains Marco and Ashley did an excellent job and are very knowledgeable of the animals and sights in the area. We saw whales, hammerhead sharks as well as the many species while snorkeling. The trip was well worth the time and money!!!

Friends and the sea with skipperB - Not a bad day out on the water with friends plus skipperB and Fatou. Visited some more remote areas of the coast, good snorkeling and company. Luckily the person we saw cliff jumping into rough seas managed to get out again. The day was so nice, would have been good to have a canopy as a few of us got sunburnt.
