Traveler reviews
Great Time!
I had a great time. Our captain and crew went the extra mile for everyone, taking extra time with the beginners to make sure they were fully comfortable and at ease.
Sail and snorkel don't play well together.
We had a good time on the Snorkel trip, the afternoon sail part of the tour did not happen which was very disappointing. We were told it would take too long as it wasn't a windy day. Ok, not sailors of the Pacific, but we do sail, and that was a perfect sail day. So I would say if you want to sail, maybe just focus on that and leave out the snorkel part. Otherwise the crew was great, snorkel area ok and motoring was very comfortable and scenic.
Big Island Kona/Amazing Snorkeling
It was amazing. The crew was excellent. Very friendly, very knowledgeable and very attentive. The history provided was fascinating!
Fantastic time, great team!
We had a great experience with Sea Paradise, so we did it a second time in the same trip! The boat was comfortable and the crew was engaging, friendly and knowledgeable. The equipment is well maintained and sanitized, and we were allowed 45 minutes in the water. If you've not snorkeled Kealakekua Bay, you'll be pleasantly by the clear ocean water and abundance of tropical fish!
Courteous crew, beautiful sailing boat, clear water for snorkeling
The crew were so amazing. I noticed that they took time to call the people who did not arrive at the check in. On the boat, they took their time helping my family and others to put on snorkel (shout out to Myrissa for being above and beyond). All other crew members were excellent. They offered clean water shower when we got up from the bay. They described clearly where to see water. They even explained to me a smaller white spotted eagle ray. I'm attaching a photo of fish that the crew showed me.
