Kealakekua Bay Kayak & Snorkel Tour

This magical tour has been our favorite since the beginning and for good reason.

Kealakekua Bay is the most protected deep water bay in the Hawaiian islands and the snorkeling area near Captain Cook’s monument is among the most pristine on the planet.

Our tours include all of the gear you’ll need for a day of kayaking and snorkeling and our guides are experienced lifeguards with exceptional knowledge of the area and Aloha to spare.

We’ll paddle across Kealakekua Bay, snorkel in the beautiful marine life conservation district, have a bite to eat, and paddle back. On the way you may see a local pod of spinner dolphins. Throughout, your guide will talk story and give you insights into the history of the area. The tour takes about 4 (group) or 5 hours (private), and we depart from the shop around 7:30AM.

Group Tour $159/person
Private Tour $225/person
