Explore Kona’s coast on a private four-hour RHIB charter, with room for up to 10 passengers and an itinerary shaped around your group.

About this tour

Set out along Kona’s coast on a private ocean expedition aboard a 31-foot Ocean Craft RHIB, a stable, maneuverable vessel built to reach remote coastal spots. With a maximum of 10 passengers, your group gets a more personal outing and a crew focused on your interests.

Your private charter lets you shape the itinerary as you go. Spend extra time with dolphins or look for a secluded cove away from the crowds, guided by a family-owned crew with more than 30 years of local knowledge. Along the way, hear about Hawaiian history and discover coastal places other tours may pass by. Snorkeling equipment, towels, bottled water, snacks, Hawaiian juices, ginger ale, and a wetsuit jacket upon request are provided.

The four-hour Kona private charter checks in at Honokohau Harbor, Slip G-8. Arrive 15 minutes early, then head out for a flexible day on the water. Gather your group and explore Kona at your own pace.
