Combine the joy of snorkelling with the thrill of speedboating across the water during this Big Island snorkelling super raft adventure!

During this unique snorkelling tour you will embark on a high speed snorkelling adventure along the Kona coast on Body Glove’s 41 foot super raft designed for your comfort and extreme speed! While you sit back on cushioned seats under a protective roof, you will be able to delight in the sensation of cutting through the water and feeling the ocean spray against your skin as the boat hurtles across the waves! The suzuki 300 engines that allow for such a fast and fun adventure also means that this boat is able to go to further snorkel sites than most vessels!

To begin the snorkelling tour from Kailua Kona, once you board the boat you will be given a Hawaiian granola snack and drink to enjoy as the boats head towards the first snorkelling location. Once you are there, you will have an hour to explore accompanied by an expert water guide who will be able to point out the amazing marine life to you, making sure that you don’t miss a thing! Back on the boat, a snack of freshly cut fruit and more drinks will be waiting for you as you zoom to the second snorkelling location! There, you will have another 45 minutes to 1 hour in the water and you will also be served a delicious lunch of a turkey or veggie sandwich, chips, and a cookie for dessert. After lunch, as you head back to Kailua Kona for the conclusion of the snorkelling tour, you will get to indulge in non-stop thrills all the way back to Kailua Pier as the speed raft gives you a boat ride to remember!

The island of Hawaii boasts some of the best snorkelling spots among the Hawaiian Islands, and indeed the world, and during this snorkelling tour from Kailua Kona you will get to experience two stunning locations! Snorkel sites that may be chosen for the adventure include the hidden gem of Pawai Bay, the deep waters and super high visibility of Pu’u Ohau, the storied location and protected marine sanctuary of Kealakekua Bay, the clear calm waters of Honaunau, also known by locals as Two-step, and the crystal clear waters and diverse marine life of Alakaha Bay – there really is no shortage of spectacular snorkelling locations on the Big Island! Before each tour, your Captain will choose the best route to take depending on weather conditions to make sure you have a safe and fabulous snorkelling experience on the island of Hawaii. No matter where you go, you can expect diverse underwater landscapes, thriving coral reefs, and an abundance of marine life!
