Overview

This five-hour Zodiac tour departs from Kona on the Big Island of Hawaii and travels to Kealakekua Bay, known for the Captain Cook monument and its status as a protected marine sanctuary. The tour uses small Zodiac boats that allow close access to shorelines and areas inaccessible to larger vessels, helping guests beat the crowd. Participants snorkel in the bay’s clear waters among coral gardens and a variety of tropical fish. The trip includes extra time to observe resident marine mammals such as dolphins and whales. A picnic snack is provided, featuring turkey sandwiches with vegan and vegetarian options, chips, cookies, soft drinks, and water. Reef-safe sunscreen is available before departure. Snorkel masks, fins, and flotation devices are included. Guests must bring a reusable water bottle, as single-use plastic bottles are no longer provided. Hotel pickup and drop-off are not included. Gratuities are not included. The minimum age for participants is four years. This tour is not recommended for those with back or neck problems, and pregnant individuals are not allowed due to the boat’s movement.
