Captain Zodiac - "Beat the Crowd" Hawaii Snorkeling Tour
This Big Island snorkeling adventure is timed to allow you to snorkel with fewer people at Kealakekua Bay. Departing from Honokohau Harbor at 10 am, we arrive at Kealakekua Bay around noon when other morning tours have left. You’ll enjoy a more intimate, uncrowded snorkeling experience. Since this tour is 5 hours long, it also allows for more time exploring the coastline and extra time in the water.
Kealakekua Bay is one of the best snorkel spots in the entire state of Hawaii. The marine preserve is teeming with tons of marine life, and the water is usually crystal clear with excellent visibility. The bay is also full of Hawaiian history. These events will be recounted as your Captain “talks story” after snorkeling.
