It Was A Perfect Day With The Perfect Crew... - As an old fart that lives here and spent the bulk of his life on the oceans around the world, I have had the opportunity to experience good and horrible tour operators. Hilo Ocean Adventures is 1st class from top to bottom. I had an 87-year-old woman from San Francisco visiting me, accompanied by her 65-year-old daughter. There was another couple on the vessel with us from Florida as well. It was an awesome trip. We all chatted, laughed, and made fun of each other. Between the occasional sprinkles and the ocean spray, I FINALLY started getting a tan! Until yesterday, my legs looked like white pipe cleaners that belonged on Phyllis Diller! Our Skipper for the day was Nanook of the North, and the mate was a beautiful, friendly woman named Emily! In short, it was a perfect adventure with a perfect crew on a beautiful island. Who could ask for more?!

Great Boat Ride! - This was a great way to get out on the water and view some of the local land features from that view point. The crew was very friendly, informative and easy to talk with. And we were lucky enough to have perfect weather...sunny with little wind and calm seas.

Fun on the ocean - What a wonderful tour. Our captain, Devon, was professional and very knowledgeable of the area. Very impressed with the way he handled the boat in the waves. It was a fun tour!!! Would definitely recommend!!!
