This was a really cool... - This was a really cool experience, getting to snorkel in a very protected area! The ride to and from the bay was very nice, and relaxing. They had plenty of snacks and provided plenty of food for breakfast and lunch! If you are looking for a great morning boat ride and snorkeling, it doesn't get better than this!

You won’t find better - The perfect morning for our last day on the Big Island. Stunning experience in the water amongst the coral and tropical fish but made all the better by the wonderful crew and captain Jacques. They could not have looked after us more - warm, welcoming and friendly, a really interesting and caring bunch of fellas. Added peace of mind due to the strong emphasis on safety and guidelines - they care about you and they care about their islands and culture. Will definitely do another trip with Kona Style when we return to Hawai’i. Mahalo to our wonderful hosts 🙏

Great day snorkeling - We had an AMAZING day on the boat. We had 25 people on the trip which was a great size. The boat was immaculate and the catamaran nets were great. The staff was extremely professional and friendly. We had done countless boat trips, and this is one of the best boat companies I have used. I highly recommend it.

Great excursion! - The crew and boat were excellent! The ramp down to the water to snorkel made it super easy to get in and out. Since there was a strong swell, some of the crew were in the water to make sure we were always in a safe location. Thank you for a great day

Best time ever!! - We had a wonderful time! The crew was amazing, helpful, funny and fun. We sat out on the bow of the catamaran as we sailed to the snorkeling spot, the views were amazing! As a first time snorkeler I was a little nervous but they were excellent at giving me tips and reassuring me. I felt completely safe. On the trip back the captain shared lots with of the Hawaiian history with us. Just an overall great experience!! Highly recommend.

Nice snorkeling with a little history -- nothing beats being on and in the water - - professional crew, good stories, a tour done well. - sandwich and breakfast were sufficient -- nothing fancy, but not bad either. - 31 people on board (5 crew + guests) but there was enough space and everything worked well.

The crew is amazing - The crew made this trip exceptional. One in particular, I believe his name was Keawe, held each of my littles in the water the entire time as one was terrified of being in the ocean and the other just turned 2yo and wanted to do what the “big kids” were doing. Even the slow ride back full of threatening clouds and choppy water was manageable because of the crew’s jokes and reassurance.
