Body Glove Cruises invites you on an exciting ocean excursion, snorkeling among the unique marine life of Kona's captivating coast!

Your Hawaiian snorkel adventure will take you to a protected marine sanctuary accessible only by boat, and home to more than 600 fascinating species of island wildlife! Upon your arrival at Pawai Bay, the crew of the Body Glove will provide you with all the necessary instruction and equipment to ensure your successful snorkeling! You will enjoy beautiful, optimal conditions as you coast and glide through the Big Island's crystal clear waters. Spinner Dolphins are often spotted en route, and if you are especially lucky, some of these delightful creatures may even come join you for a swim amid the enchanting coral reef gardens!

The whole family will especially love the 15-foot waterslide and the high-dive platform, both making a big "splash" with the kids (as well as those who are kids at heart!) When you need a break from the water, come back aboard for some refreshments. (Continental Breakfast & Deli-Lunch served on Morning Tour ONLY). On the trip back, relax and enjoy the beautiful views from aboard and revel in the knowing that you are here, in Hawaii!
