10 out of 10 for the day! We had crystal clear snorkeling, flying fish off the bow, whale tails and one huge and very memorable breach. Above all the guides were spectacular people. Very knowledgeable of the island, boating, scuba and general fun. We will be back and I highly recommend!

This tour was the most amazing part of our trip to the Big Island in November. We saw dolphins, turtles and a manta ray. We will never forget our time with Big Island Shaka!

Boat not bad but dirty. Head/bathroom almost unusable. Much BIGGER problem though. No safety instructions on boat whatsoever. Took us to snorkel in an area with strong currents with no instructions or warning. Had several people get into distress due to not being able to swim back to boat in open water. I requested lifevest to jump into water to help and captain would not provide. Not sure he even had them. This could have been a lot worse...just turned into a bad story. Told “captain “ and he was very defensive! This could have been tragic.

We had a wonderful e experience on the catamaran. The weather was perfect. Captain Major was excellent and we had a great time. Snorkeling was fun. It was nice to see the big island from a different perspective. Renee was friendly and helpful. We had a blast.

This was an exceptional experience. Beautiful sailing along the Kohala coast with friendly and competent people.

This review is a piece of cake. Met Major and Claire right on time...the catamaran was immaculate and stocked with cold drinks and snacks. it was just like sailing with close friends. Claire and my daughter hit it off immediately..no more than 10 minutes out and we find whales galore.. Major was respectful of keeping the distance, but the whales were curious and stayed on the surface playing for the longest time! We motored to a fabulous snorkeling spot and Claire safely led an incredible excursion...she is part mermaid and can hold her breath forever! we handed her our go-pro and she took INCREDIBLE footage of her free-diving skills and got GREAT shots of us. More whale watching and sailing,,with what became good friends. We ran a little late because we found more whales...no mention of it or concerns. They own the boat and I love supporting entrepreneurs. They are more than reasonable for what they charge. I will charter with them EVERY SINGLE TIME I COME BACK!

We had a wonderful time this morning with our family of four (kids 7 & 9 years old). Major and Claire were lovely hosts on our cruise. We were lucky and saw dolphins. We were able to swim with them and snorkel over some beautiful coral into a cave. Claire was a great guide and helped our 7 year old daughter in the water. We would highly recommend this experience.

Amazing! Claire and Major are wonderful host. Our experience was above and beyond expectations! If I could give them more stars I would. They listened and catered our tour to our wishes and patiently waited till the whales danced around our boat! I felt honored to be part of the experience.
