About Hawaii Nautical - Kona Turtle Snorkel Sail
Sail the Kona coast with Hawaii Nautical on a turtle snorkel sail featuring reef scenery, clear water, marine life and a relaxed Big Island sailing cruise.
Kona's lava-lined coast and clear blue water create a beautiful setting for this three-hour sail aboard Spirit of Aloha. Departing from Honokohau Harbor, the catamaran follows the shoreline toward a snorkel site known for calm conditions, colorful reefs and the chance to see Hawaiian green sea turtles.
Once anchored, slip into the water with all snorkel gear provided and explore coral gardens filled with tropical fish. The friendly crew offers in-water assistance, making the experience welcoming for first-time snorkelers as well as confident swimmers.
After snorkeling, relax on deck with wide coastal views and a fresh deli-style sandwich lunch. A tropical drink from the full premium bar is also included, adding an easy island finish to the sail back along the Kona Coast.
