Fantastic snorkeling excursion with Captain Sam and his crew. They did a great job. Some of the best points:
1. We saw plenty of fish in a beautiful underwater reef setting.
2. Extremely convenient starting location for us since we were staying near Waikoloa.
3. Entire crew was friendly, knowledgeable and capable.
4. Lunch was good quality and tasty.
5. Snorkel equipment worked well and the Seasmoke catamaran was a pleasure to ride and snorkel from.
Extra credit: Even though our group was unusually small, Ocean Sports went through with it and didn’t cancel at the last minute. Nice!

Wonderful crew and amazing snorkel and whale sightings. Saw many many turtles and 2 pairs of octopus (but you need to have sharp eyes and go slowly for the latter).

The most memorable part of our experience was what happened before we ever start. We were extremely impressed that when we were getting ready to leave to arrive and start our cruise we got a call from the tour company to inform us that the waters were too rough for snorkeling. They gave us the option of either continuing with the cruise or to cancel. We decided to cancel, and were extremely impressed that they took the time to inform us in advance and give us options. Everything was handled with professional integrity and thoughtfulness. We recommend this company and look forward to coming back and sailing with this tour company again.

The crew was very friendly and helpful. The boat was awesome as well! The best part was the amazing fish and turtles we saw while snorkeling. The crew was in the water pointing out where to look which was very helpful. The lunch was good! The only thing I’d change is a little more time in the water snorkeling.

My husband and I have taken many snorkeling tours with many companies throughout the world, but this was one of our favorites. We signed up at the hut on the beach and the staff there were informative and helpful. We were staying at the Marriott, so it was very convenient. But what we really enjoyed was the skill and friendliness of the staff onboard. Just like in the pictures on their website, besides instructions we received an informative, funny and fascinating talk about the incredible sealife we would be seeing. And once in the water, our "guide" dove down and showed us many of the creatures that we might have missed! The staff was especially good with children. One kid started to freak out a bit once he was in the water, but one of the guys encouraged him and next time we looked, he was happily snorkeling. Also, the food was exceptionally good and fresh. We had a pretty windy day that clouded up, so as far as the weather, the snorkeling wasn't ideal, but that was not the fault of the staff, who did all they could to make it a great time. The catamaran we were on had quite a history, so ask the captain about that. We were fortunate to have a small group on board that day, so maybe we received exceptional attention, but we were very happy and would go again with Ocean Sports again.

The snorkel cruise was excellent! The crew took incredible care of us on and off the boat and were very knowledgeable on the animals/terrain. We will do this snorkel adventure every time we’re here!

Calve and mom Humpbacks this last in the season was great, but its the snorkeling that is amazing for the Big Island.
