Looking for the best snorkel tour on the Big Island (Island of Hawaii)? We rented kayaks to have an adventure across Kealakekua Bay. Dolphin spotting, crystal clear water, and perhaps the best snorkeling on the Big Island.
The best way to reach the Captain Cook Monument and one of the most pristine reefs on the island is to kayak. The vibrant reef awaits after a 20-minute paddle across the historic Kealakekua Bay.
