Named one of the world’s best snorkeling locations, Kealakekua Bay is a 315-acre marine sanctuary that boasts incredibly protected waters year round, making it the best place in Hawaii for beginning snorkelers.
After a full hour of snorkeling in the crystal clear waters directly in front of the monument to Captain James Cook, make your way back to Keauhou Bay along the South Kona coastline.
