“Best guides in the business” I am a professional concierge and destination manager, here in Hawaii. I have sent several guests out with Danny and Laure and the responses are always the same! "What a fantastic crew!" "Personalized every detail for our family or group." Can't wait to go out with them again." I will always send my guests to Danny and Laure. Thank you so much for taking care of my guests, making my job easier, and creating lasting memories for each and every one of them!  

“Over the Top Adventure and Service” With so many choices for ocean adventure it was hard for a family of six to pick one. That's why we went with KOA because they packed more adventure into one trip than any other outfit. We had experienced snorkelers and scuba newbies that wanted to swim with dolphins and see spectacular reefs. We accomplished all and then some with a private charter. Captain Danny and Laure, along with Kent took us south to Kealakekua Bay for an introductory dive and snorkel combination. On the way spinner dolphin pods came close so we slipped into the water for nose to nose snorkel! Laure was on top of everything noticing that one snorkeler wasn't quite as comfortable, so Laure handed out a noodle and a new mask that made the open water easy. At our dive spot the newbies followed Capt. Danny for a scuba tour around the reef. Nobody knows a reef like Capt. Danny. Eels, fish, octopus and even a frog (angler) fish. We would never has seen so much without his experience. There simply is no other experience like scuba, watching air bubbles from your exhale float to the surface like prayers rising in an underwater cathedral. Kealakekua Bay was our final stop for unsurpassed coral reef beauty. Snorkel guide Kent was able to find unique creatures lounging among the coral while keeping a watchful eye on the kids. Videos and snapshots on the web are not the same as snorkeling in a coral garden. Lunch was wonderful on deck with ample drinks, sandwiches, avocados, and of course awesome pineapple. The finale was an unexpected surprise of whale watching on the route back to port. I guess the only untapped adventure still on our list for the next visit is the manta dive.

For your adventure be sure to communicate your priorities and your ocean experience up front. Capt. Danny and Laure really want everyone to have the best experience so we made sure to mention what we hoped to see, how comfortable we were in the water, and let them decide how to accomplish the mission. As always, our family approaches open water adventures with patience, politeness, and respect for all. The only thing that belongs on deck is your full attention and your waterproof camera. Stow the rest and hang loose Hawaiian style.
 

“Best ocean trip ever!” We have been coming to Kona for 13 years and typically do an ocean adventure trip each time. We usually have a wonderful time, but this time - our first with Kona Ocean Adventures - was easily the best yet. I came across this company while researching night snorkeling trips to see mantas. We had only one night we could do the trip and sadly, they were booked. But Laure wanted to make sure we got a great trip in and created a special dolphin adventure for us the next afternoon. I'm so glad she did. 
Laure and Danny made us feel like special friends right away. They were encouraging and super helpful with getting the kids (8 and 4) in and out of the water and allowing us as much time as we wanted in the water. They knew we really wanted to swim with dolphins and didn't rest until it happened. We spent about an hour hanging out with huge pods of dolphins before heading off to completely amazing snorkeling at a spot we had never even heard of before. 
Tasty snacks and munchies were an added bonus. We look forward to our next trip with them and will certainly recommend this trip as a must do for all of our house guests.
 

So glad I picked Kona Ocean Adventures!” I booked the manta ray snorkel as a birthday gift for my husband. There were many companies to choose from but I definitely made the right choice. Other boats had 20+ people. We chose a smaller boat and got personal treatment, including homemade salsa, fruit, cookies, veggies, and hot cocoa. Laure and Danny were wonderful and made the experience so great. The snorkeling was surreal (not scary at all!) and we even swam with bottlenose dolphins! Don't get shuffled around- small group, personal attention, yummy snacks. Have already recommended it to 3 people and it was just last night! Mahalo nui loa, Danny and Laure!
