How much do the tours cost?
We maintain our reputation for being the ‘most value for your money’ excursion in Kona. Adults are $50, and children under 12 are $25.

What should I wear? What should I bring?
Wear comfortable clothes and shoes. You might want to wear sunscreen, although all glass bottom viewing is covered. Don’t forget your camera!

What will we see?
Our boat was designed to allow us access to very shallow water, sometimes just a few feet deep, where you will view more colors than in deeper water. You will see, close up and personal, a myriad of beautiful tropical fish, a wide variety of corals, and many other sea creatures that inhabit the reef and the bay. It is not unusual for us to find a friendly pod of the local Hawaiian Spinner Dolphins. If you have already been snorkeling, this is a great way to learn about what you saw and ask questions. Our narrators are knowledgeable and offer fascinating information about the coral reef ecosystem and other related subjects.

Are the tours appropriate for young children?
Yes, people of all ages will enjoy it. The boat is very safe for children. The vast majority of our younger passengers love the trip!

Will I get seasick?
Most passengers do not get sick, however, as with any boat trip, the possibility is there. The beauty of our tour is that you are not stuck on a boat for an extended period if you should feel uncomfortable.

Can we charter your boat for private use?

Boat Info

How many passengers do you carry?
We limit our trips to 24 passengers. This ensures that everyone has a great view while seated on our comfortable cushioned benches. Every seat is a “window” seat with a view of the glass bottom, and you are welcome to move around the boat as you please and can go up forward to the bow for sun and photography.

Are the tours wheelchair accessible?
We cannot accommodate wheelchair-confined guests. Our boarding ramp has one small step, and the ramp is about 4’ long. Once you board our boat, there are 4 regular size steps with handrails, down to the deck. Guests using canes and walkers usually have no problem boarding.

Do you have a restroom onboard?
Yes, we do.
