Captain Cook Snorkel Tour with Sea Caves and Lava Tubes

4.8
(557 reviews)
Big Island of Hawaii, USA

2 hours 30 minutes (approximately)
Offered in: English

If you are new to snorkeling this is the ideal choice! Particularly good for families with younger children or swimmers who aren’t certain if they are “seaworthy” enough for one of our longer trips.

This trip is much slower-paced and affords guests time to become more familiar and comfortable with the exciting and beautiful sport of snorkeling.

Important: The listed start time is the check-in time, not the departure time. Please do not arrive early. This tour has two designated meeting points. Carefully review all tour details prior to booking, as this experience may not be suitable for all guests.

We offer several different times slots to fit your schedule. The times shown indicate the check in time. Tour duration includes time to check-in and receive gear. Snorkel participants must be comfortable swimming.

Looking for more snorkel time? We also offer a Deluxe Snorkel Tour that includes snorkeling at two different reefs. Check out our other listings for more details.
