About this tour

Set out from Kawaihae Harbor for a two-hour snorkel adventure along the Big Island’s sunny Kohala Coast. Aboard Olohana, a 41-foot powerboat, you’ll cruise across clear water toward a reef alive with tropical fish and Hawaiian green sea turtles.

Snorkel gear and flotation equipment are provided, and the crew offers instruction and in-water assistance for beginners. Between swims, enjoy chilled drinks and light island-inspired snacks, with onboard restrooms available. Keep watch for dolphins, and for whales during the season.

This Kawaihae snorkel adventure pairs time on the water with an easygoing reef visit. Arrive 20 minutes before departure and look for Olohana at the dock. Book your spot and discover the Kohala Coast from the sea.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 3 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Big Island of Hawaii
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.3.
