Once anchored, you can jump off the high-dive platform or slide down the 20-foot waterslide to enter the ocean. You'll have about two hours of water time.

The bigger the boat, the more stable it is. The vessel is 65 feet in length with a 30-foot beam - it's the largest boat of its kind on the Kona Coast. It’s a totally different experience than being on a smaller boat or a raft. If you know you are prone to seasickness, it's recommended you take Bonine or Dramamine the night before and one several hours before your cruise. Please read the directions to see that you are able to take this medication. You are more likely to feel better on the lower deck of the vessel as there is less pitch. The tour also offers complimentary ginger pills and a ginger drink, which is great for motion sickness.
Bring your suit, towel, and sunglasses. If you wish to SCUBA or purchase cocktails or retail items such as underwater cameras or GoPros, bring extra cash or a credit card.
