Body Glove Cruises - Kona Dolphin Watch & Snorkel Tour with BBQ Lunch Instant Confirmation
Take a Day Cruise with Body Glove
Embark on a fun snorkel tour with Body Glove Cruises, Kona's most popular boat trip! Swim at a protected marine sanctuary, see spinner dolphins & more! Includes breakfast, lunch & 1 free cocktail.
Dolphin Sighting Guarantee! (until 2018/12/31)
If you do not spot any dolphins during your tour, you will be given the chance to come out again for FREE!
What qualifies as a dolphin sighting is determined by a trained member of the crew. This non-transferable offer allows you to reschedule your tour for free; it does not entitle you to a refund.
Your Kona snorkel adventure takes you to a protected marine sanctuary of Red Hill, accessible only by boat, and home to more than 600 fascinating species of island wildlife! Spinner Dolphins are often spotted en route. The whole family will especially love the 15-foot (5 meter) waterslide and the high-dive platform, both making a big "splash" with the kids and the "kids at heart!"
Whale Watching! During the winter months (December 15th - April 14th), this will be operating as a Whale Watching cruise. Every year Humpback Whales migrate to the warm waters of Hawaii, and they are often seen during winter months. If interested, please book the "Kailua-Kona Morning Whale Watch & Snorkel BBQ Cruise".
