About this tour
Set out along the Kona coast on a private charter where the day can follow your interests. This four-hour trip aboard a catamaran-style boat gives your group room to explore with a professional guide and captain who can recommend activities along the way.
Choose from possibilities such as snorkeling with manta rays, looking for dolphins, or watching for whales in winter. Snorkeling equipment is provided, along with bottled water, snacks, sandwiches, and fresh fruit. The charter is private for your group of up to 26 people, so you can shape the outing around the experiences you want to enjoy. Bring your own food if you have special dietary requirements.
Meet at the harbor, in front of the red-roofed public bathroom about a quarter mile after turning onto the harbor drive. Hotel pickup and drop-off are not included. Make your Kona Private Charter Adventures a chance to see the coast at your own pace and choose what to discover on the water.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 9 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 7.6. Top 34% in Big Island of Hawaii means it ranks in the top 34% of tours in Big Island of Hawaii by this score.
