Highlights

Embark on a one-of-a-kind journey for adventure seekers eager to explore the pristine waters of the South Kona Coast. What makes this snorkeling tour unique is not only our commitment to sustainability—from biodiesel-powered boats to composting waste and eliminating single-use plastics—but also the breathtaking destinations we visit.


Snorkel at two, world-class sites, including the iconic Kealakekua Bay and an exclusive, crowd-free location featuring dramatic underwater lava formations and arches. Glide through crystal-clear waters teeming with tropical fish, vibrant coral reefs, and occasional encounters with dolphins or manta rays. Along the way, soak in the rich history and rugged beauty of the Kona Coast, where lava cliffs and sea caves tell the story of Hawai‘i’s volcanic past.


With top-tier snorkeling gear, a knowledgeable crew, and a thoughtfully crafted plant-based menu, this tour blends adventure, sustainability, and culture for an unforgettable experience.

Itinerary

  • Keauhou Harbor

    1 hoursAdmission Ticket Included
    Embark on a memorable journey with Hula Kai, departing from Keauhou Bay, the birthplace of King Kamehameha III. As you cruise along the Kona Coast, immerse yourself in a Hawaiian cultural expedition enriched with captivating historical narratives. Our lifeguard-certified crew will assist you with snorkel gear to explore the blue ocean and discover coral, tropical fish, turtles, rays, dolphins, and whales.

Our commitment to environmental protection through sustainable practices and mindful dining sets us apart. Our curated menu features plant-based meals, locally sourced when possible, reflecting our dedication to minimizing environmental impact and promoting guest health.

  • Pali Kaholo

    1 hoursAdmission Ticket Free
    Located approximately 10-miles South of Kealakekua Bay, our Luxury Kona Coast Snorkel Tour often visits the remote and serene Pali Kaholo region, consisting of Rob’s Reef and Turtle Rock (weather depending). Rob’s Reef – A definite favorite with its amazing underwater sea arches and sea caves in the Pali (cliff). Amidst the colorful array of fish and marine life located here, snorkelers may find a unique school of Pyramid Butterflyfish – which are usually only seen in deeper waters. Turtle Rock – As the name suggests, this area is frequented by Green Sea Turtles. The vibrant coral and black sand together in this area create a beautiful contrast. There are also several rock islands and ridges extending below and above the water. Nearby is Lepeamoa, a large rock formation resembling a rooster’s comb.
  • Puu Ohau

    1 hoursAdmission Ticket Free
    WEATHER DEPENDING - This large red volcanic cone is named for the type of cinder which it produced. Pu'u - meaning hill and hau, a special stone that was soft, porous, and once used for polishing canoes. Located north of Kealakekua Bay, it is situated between Nenue Point to the North and Keawakaheka Bay to the South, marking the boundary between North and South Kona. The top of Pu’u Ohau (Red Hill) is Kapu, or forbidden, as it is the ancient burial site of High Chiefess Kamaeokalani, grandmother of King Kalakaua and Queen Liliuokalani. Today, the Red Hill area has become known for its excellent snorkeling amongst the many reefs and abundant marine life it sustains.
  • Kealakekua Bay

    1 hoursAdmission Ticket Free
    WEATHER DEPENDING - Kealakekua Bay is one of the best Kona snorkel sites on Hawaii Island. With its natural wind protection, remote location and designations as an underwater state park, marine sanctuary, and site of the Captain Cook Monument, Kealakekua Bay is earning a reputation as the best snorkeling destination in Hawaii.
  • The Captain Cook Monument(Pass by)

    Admission Ticket Free
