Fantastic fish, captains, and lunch - The two snorkeling sites were more than wonderful with so many different and gorgeous fish (and other sea creatures). Captains Brendan and Lauren were great - helpful, knowledgeable, experienced, and really pleasant people. Our family of 5, youngest was 16, had a great time. I chose the premium tour because of the lunch. It was needed and hit the spot after the water time. Was really great to have lunch on the boat after the great snorkeling. Best part was amazing fish!

Great Experience all around! - Phenomenal experience with Captain Brendan and Captain Lauren! We went to two snorkeling sites but the amazing sites were cruising by the lava tubes, seeing Pele and the wealth of knowledge that both captains were able to provide. Book this experience! Truly memorable.

Tons of fish, friendly and knowledgeable guides. - This was a fantastic experience! We were in the water for two full hours and saw so many fish, as well as a sea turtle, during our snorkel. Our captain, Skylar, and crew, MJ, were wonderful- they were friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. They also gave us a great tour of the shoreline, complete with stories and facts. Fun boat ride, too. We loved this tour and highly recommend!

Go for the snorkeling, stay for the food! - Not only are the crew fantastic!!!! The food is really good. We did not realize how terrific the crew were until we went with another company ( I won't mention Hula Kai's name). Capt. Kevin, MJ, and Caitlyn (sp) were amazing!!! They were safety conscious, helpful beyond compare, kind, and funny. We stopped and saw scalloped hammerhead shark, spinning dolphins, and a whale and baby. Yes, a whale in May! We went with them a total of three times. We cancelled our plans one day and rebooked a morning snorkel because we had so much fun the previous day! Caitlyn helped a non-swimmer in our group regain confidence to swim. With MJ we didn't raise a finger. He was there to answer our every wish. I had finished my delicious lunch and he was right there and took my garbage. Amazing service!! Yummy snacks and fruit after the first snorkel was a very pleasant surprise. Loved the snorkeling, but the crew made our day special!

Great excursion! - This snorkeling trip was amazing. It began as a small group at 9 am which was a perfect time. We went snorkeling at two different places and the captain Brendan was a Jack of all trades. He helped me, a beginner, so that I was comfortable in the water. He had snacks and lunch waiting for us each time we finished snorkeling. He was a knowledgeable guide on the way back to base, stopping to show us different things. What a wonderful tour. Would highly recommend.

Sensational Snorkeling with Sea Quest - This Sea Quest snorkeling trip was one of the highlights of our trip to Hawaii. Lauren and Skylar were friendly, fun and knowledgeable captain and crew! We saw so many beautiful fish, plus a turtle, manta ray, and dolphins. Food and drinks were always available. Highly recommend!!!

The best snorkeling - I’ve been on other snorkeling trips, but sea quest is the best. They are a smaller, very friendly outfit. Each of the two locations we visited on the snorkel tour was unique. We saw loads of fish - I particularly loved the area around the captain cook memorial. Brendan our captain did a great job of helping everyone feel comfortable. The gear they provided was good so that we didn’t have issues with leaking foggy masks. We appreciated the additional stops along the coast to check out sea caves. The coastline is so dramatic and beautiful. Thanks for a great experience

Fantastic trip with Sea Quest! - Wonderful experience with Sea Quest. 2 great snorkeling spots in one trip. Great equipment. Super friendly and helpful staff. Captain Brendan was a great guide and master at the helm as we toured the coast line up close. Snacks and beverages waiting for us as we climbed back on board before headed for the next spot. Great snorkeling, great boat ride. Just a whole lot of fun.

Great small group snorkeling tour - This was a great, small group (6 people), snorkeling tour. Brendan, our Captain, was very patient with my 8-year-old daughter who never snorkeled. We snorkeled two spots, saw dolphins, viewed a host of sea caves and lava tubes, enjoyed plenty of snacks and food while learning about the big island and its volcanoes. I highly recommend!

Go in a small group for best results - Went out at 9AM with Capt. Skyler & Courtney. They were awesome, very personable and knowledgeable about the island. We saw a few whales on the way out and the way back. Two snorkel locations were great and quite different. We had about an hour snorkeling at each location. The covered boat was nice as it was a really sunny day. There was only our group of 6 on the trip so we really got to interact with the crew on a more personable basis. The snacks were great and you got to preselect your choice of sandwiches. We were back right on time after 4.5 hours on the water. Highly recommended. May seem a bit pricey but it was well worth it for what we got. The small group was nice as we hit the Capt Cook memorial sight when another large boat was still there and the place was way too busy. They left after about 10 minutes and we had the place basically to ourselves. The underwater scenery was amazing!! I'd do it again in a heartbeat, especailly with Courtney & Skylar.
