South Kawaihae Small Boat Harbor
- Kohola near the front of the boat ramp
Location, direction and description
-
Directions to Kawaihae Harbor-South: When heading north on route 270, look for a green gate enclosing a port complex. Take the very first left into the green gate, following the sign for gate 1. Take an immediate left at the sign for gate 13. Follow the paved road over several speed bumps until the road ends at a gravel parking lot overlooking a dock. Kohola will be the first boat on your left when you walk down the ramp. The vessel is homeported at the far end of the dock, at slip S-01, but will most often board from the loading area near the front of the boat ramp.

FAQ
Q. What should I bring with me on a snorkel tour?
A. Please bring a towel and reef-safe sunscreen. Spray reef-safe sunscreen may be applied prior to boarding, but not on the boat.
Q. What happens if it rains?
A. The sun-drenched Kohola coast sees an average of nine inches of rain each year, so it is unlikely that it will rain enough to cancel a tour. In the case of severe weather, we will contact you to make alternative arrangements
