Your Big Island Glass Bottom Boat Tour

A Big Island glass bottom boat tour is an easy ocean tour for guests who want reef views without swimming. You stay dry on the boat while windows in the hull frame the coral, fish and moving blue water below.

Kailua Bay Charter Company's Glass Bottom Boat Tour departs from Kailua Bay on the Kona Coast aboard the Marian and is listed at about 50 minutes. Ocean Sports offers a shorter glass bottom boat ride along Anaehoomalu Bay on the Kohala Coast, listed at about 30 minutes.

This is a good choice for families, non-swimmers, younger kids, older travelers or anyone who wants a quick look below the surface without snorkel gear. Pick the departure area that fits your plans, then check meeting location, tour time, weather and ocean conditions before booking.
