About
Join us for a unique experience of a lifetime where we venture into the unknown! Enjoy a morning wildlife watching tour with our experienced Naturalist captains and crew, who share a passion & respect for the ocean and its inhabitants. Kona is one of the few unique coastlines in the world with numerous species of wildlife year-round. We have the opportunity to encounter 17 different resident whale & dolphin species, turtles, sharks, Hawaiian Monk seals, various species of birds and much more. Experience our military grade Zodiac Hurricanes - the same boats used by Navy seals as we explore the diverse habitat provided by Hawaii’s deep underwater geography, an ocean safari for the true adventure seeker!
We highly encourage our guests to bring cameras along not only for your own photographic experience but the opportunity to become a valuable contributor to citizen science along with Captain Zodiac. This is not a snorkeling excursion, however we recommend wearing swimsuits in case the opportunity arises to jump in the water. As this is a marine wildlife watching tour, we cannot guarantee encounters, however with the abundance of year round ocean residents, the chance of no sighting is low. There is a minimum of 6 passengers, if the minimum is not met on a specific day, we will move your reservation to another date. In the unlikely event that we are unable to run a trip due to weather conditions, minimum not met and inability to re-schedule, you will be fully refunded.
