The boat ride there was amazing. The captain took time to stop at historical sights along the way to the snorkel site and explain all them before. All workers involved were friendly and helpful. We saw dolphins 2 times on the way there and saw lots of fish and an eel as well while snorkeling. The captain recommended a great little trail afterwords which has been one of the highlights of our trip!
Captain Cook Monument Snorkel

Totally worth it. Even if you’ve never snorkeled before, the crew makes it easy. Use one of the provided pool noodles! Lunch was very good (sandwiches and chips), and we saw both spinner dolphins and bottle nosed dolphins on the way to the Capt Cook Monument. Captain Jacob (youngest boat captain in Hawaii) stopped the boat both times so we had plenty of time to watch the dolphins frolick. The crew (top notch) gave us plenty of time to snorkel, and on the way back to the harbor, we stopped a couple of times to see cool things along the coast- Goddess Pele and Parrot Cove. Great trip, enjoyed every minute.
Worth the effort

Nice Courteous crew, quick transfer to location. Stopped off for dolphins on the way. Perfect organization, Good lunch. Music is somewhat loud. The bay is small, crowded. Water is clean, fish is bountiful, yet the variety of fish is limited to about 7-8. 25 years ago it was much more diverse in terms of wildlife variety. Not crew’s fault, just an observation
