Kealakekua Reef Adventure

Join us for an unforgettable adventure to one of the Big Island’s most iconic snorkeling destinations—Kealakekua Bay, home to the historic Captain James Cook Monument. This marine sanctuary is protected from wind and waves on three sides making it an ideal place for first time snorkelers and seasoned explorers alike.  Protected by the State of Hawaii from fishing and anchorage, the bay thrives with vibrant marine life and unspoiled underwater beauty.

As we journey to and from the bay, we’ll scan the coastline for wildlife—spinner dolphins, sea turtles, and the occasional passing whale—turning every moment of the trip into part of the adventure. Along the route, we will also talk about significant historical sites and dramatic shoreline landscapes. Once in the bay, you’ll enjoy approximately one full hour of snorkeling in some of the clearest waters on the island.
