Family Vacation - This was one of the highlights of our family trip! With a total of 17 people and kids ranging from 8 months to 20 years there was something for everyone! From the slide, jumping off the boat, paddle boards, noodles, and a mat to just float! The staff was absolutely amazing, the Captain was very informative and stopped every time she saw something in the water that was worth a pic or two! Shout out to Taylor, my boys enjoyed your stories of adventure and overall your kind nature and down to earth personality! We had so much fun, so thank you to all of your staff who were hands down the best team! We had a few sick kiddos and they most definitely went out of their way to make sure everyone was getting what they needed to be comfortable! Mahalo

Don’t miss this!! - The body glove snorkel tour is amazing! The food is great, the staff is so kind and helpful, and the snorkeling is perfect! We swam with dolphins right in the harbor where we stopped. I was able to see them underwater! Don’t miss this trip on the Big Island!

Best guided travel experience ever - I cannot recommend this experience enough. Swimmers and non-swimmers alike can enjoy viewing marine life with all of the specialized equipment available. Every member of the staff are trained lifeguards as well as friendly and welcoming guests hosts. Breakfast, lunch, and drinks are outstanding.
A true testament to the staff is that as a mother of three with children ranging in age from 4-14, I was able to feel relaxed.

Amazing Overall Experience! - Out of all boat snorkeling trips I’ve been on, this one had the best overall experience! The crew was funny and nice. They had a safety briefing and an optional snorkeling lesson, overall this crew cared about us the most! They had multiple people watching on paddle boards to make sure nobody got too close to the rocks, and staff assisting people getting out of the water. I could feel that they were making sure that our safety was most important. Besides this they served breakfast that looked delicious, but sadly we had eaten before, and a lunch that was very high quality, and yummy! They also had some paddle boards, and any necessary floatation devices if you weren’t confident enough about swimming. There was a bar for drinks, and staff would walk around for your orders! Along with this, there is a slide and a high jump if you wanted to do something other than snorkeling! The snorkeling was beautiful, the boat entertaining, 10/10 would recommend!
