Big Island Afternoon Whale Watch Tour from Kona - Body Glove Cruises [Dec - Mar]
Overall Rating
4.30Good Time Over All
Reviewed by: Alli, 2023/01/28We saw pilot whales up close and the staff were so informative, helpful, and truly loving their work. I really wish that we had been able to see a humpback whale since we were there in the right season. But I have to presume that they were not able to find any that day. Guess I’ll just have to come back to Hawaii again?!

Good if you like a large cruise ship
Reviewed by: Amy, 2018/02/08The Body Glove Afternoon Whale Watch Cruise was an enjoyable experience. The guide was very knowledgable, and the captain was great.
And they give you free reef friendly sunscreen!
however, you don't really feel that you're 'in nature' if that's what you're looking for - it's a very large very fancy cruise ship - just be aware if you're looking for a more intimate experience!

Whale Watching
Reviewed by: Bill C, 2015/02/10Amazing creatures. Definitely a must see activity if you are in Hawaii during the right time of year. I liked the fact that this tour allowed to you return until you actually see whales. I was fortunate to see my first time out, but nice to know I could have returned if I needed to without additional expense.

I'll Keep Trying!!
Reviewed by: Donald Owen, 2014/12/18I'm afraid the whales were very shy during our particular trip. We did see two on 4/5 occasions but only briefly from a distance. In these circumstances I think it's best to look upon the trip as a pleasure cruise because we were treated to great views of the Western side of Big Island. The crew deserve a mention...always polite and courteous...they looked after everyone with complimentary soft drinks.

Nice cruise
Reviewed by: Sandy, 2014/02/20The cruise was nice, we saw plenty of whales surfacing for air. took some great videos. figure out of you get seasick and be properly equipt. The crew were great and the captain was very knowledgeable. He gave a great talk on the island, whales, and any question people were curious about.

OKAY
Reviewed by: Kathleen, 2009/02/18Body Glove Whale Watching was Okay. The staff was nice, The snacks and beverages were nice. The boat was nice. My trip, though I booked it 3 months earlier, when I arrived at my hotel, it was changed. Sure, they comped the bar to have me switch, but the whales we did see were too far off to make the trip worth-while.

Whale Watching
Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous, 2008/03/14We were very lucky to see the three whales up-close. One young calf was trying hard to breach with the mother, which was very adorable. The staff was very informative and helpful. I would do this again.
