Great crew … really great. Loved captain Morgan. The snorkeling location is fantastic. There is so much to see. We felt very safe. The gear was the best we have ever used. Boat is clean. Bathrooms are really big. There are a lot of other people on the boat. Food was good.

We went on the afternoon snorkeling tour on the Hoku Nui, operated by Sea Paradise. We really enjoyed the boat ride, which featured fresh fruit, snacks, and free soft drinks, and we appreciated that one of the staff led us with a traditional Hawaiian chant to ask permission to enter the bay. Once inside the bay, we saw several spinner dolphins, which was an unexpected surprise! We had about an hour of excellent snorkeling with a small group near a beautiful coral reef, and the staff joined us in the water the entire time. Afterward, there were several good bar choices on the boat too. Overall, an excellent trip that the whole family enjoyed!

The best sail and snorkel we’ve done on all the islands. The crew was great and so entertaining. The boat is the best designed, most comfortable one we’ve been on. So clean and easy to maneuver on. Easy on/off stairs and great equipment. Fresh fruit and treats were awesome. Snorkeling was great. They even had our shoes laid out when we returned. Highly recommend!

Beautiful boat, professional and friendly crew. We had great weather so the trip out was smooth and the snorkeling was wonderful. Lucky to see manta rays as we pulled into the harbor at the end of the trip. Highly recommend the Hoko Nui and crew.

Unbelievable experience with breathtaking views. Not the best swimmer but they made sure to stay close so I may over come my fears.

This was a fun afternoon! The boat isn’t huge so only 15 guests total. Crew was friendly and helpful. Drinks and snacks available too to make it relaxing day out. Great snorkel location by the Cpt Cook monument. Lots of coral and fish. Would recommend this tour vs other huge 40+ ppl tours.

The crew was very knowledgeable and taught us about the Hawaiian tribes that use to inhabit the area we snorkeled. Once in the water they ensured everyone was safe.

The crew was friendly, informative & helpful. The boast was wonderful because it was so user friendly. The wide staircases went right into the water, making it super easy to get in & out of the water & deal with gear. The water was clear & lots of different species to observe. Perfecto!

Great crew, boat, and snorkeling equipment. The friendly, knowledgeable, professional crew was fully attentive to all onboard -- from kids to seniors -- for the entire tour. Dolphins swam beside us as we departed the harbor. Then three whales were sighted; the captain detoured to get safely close to the breaching giants. Wow! Then we began the fascinating main event -- snorkeling directly in front of the Captain Cook monument. We had plenty of time to see a variety of fish and coral. Because of the crew's good instruction, my first time snorkeling was a long-to-be-remembered, pleasurable experience. To/from the snorkeling, the crew answered any and all questions about what we were seeing on land and in the sea. The experience was made more meaningful by one of the crew performing Hawaiian chants.
