Captain cook

Published on Jan, 2025

Eric is skilled with the boat and shows his skills! Loved his music too. We saw whales to and from the monument, a sea turtle and crown of thorns starfish! Eric could Id the starfish. Stacy was fun and helpful! We saw lots of different fish always a delight. Sad about the reef, not as bright as 23 years ago!

Awesome

Beautiful area for snorkeling and not very populated either! Crew was informative and hilarious. Definitely a fun experience

Great Big Island Snorkeling Experience

Published on Jan, 2025

Highly recommend this tour for visitors and locals. Captain Bill and Lacy provided an outstanding experience. There was ample time to snorkel with the tropical fish at the Capt Cook monument and we were able to view whales on the return to the marina. The crew also gave us great historical information about the Kona coast. The tour was well organized and not rushed. The smaller boat made it much easier to get to know the crew and fellow tour participants. This will be our 'go to' tour whenever we have visitors to the Big Island.

Great crew.

Great snorkeling, warm water, and was awesome to see a bunch of whales. Crew explained the history of places we stopped very well.
