Night snorkel in Kona to see manta rays feed under blue lights, then warm up with hot chocolate and cookies. 75 minutes from Keauhou Bay.
“Activity was a lot of fun and our guilds were amazing, we were able to see three manga rays but were disappointed it wasn’t more but we also understand that’s totally out of the tour operators control, it’s nature and wild animals so just thankful we were able to see any. Again the tour guilds made the trip a lot of fun”

“This was a great day. Adam our guide for the day was so amazing and informative. Plenty of snacks and good food for the day that was fresh and tasty. Plenty of opportunities to stop for the bathroom and lots of information about the area. The glow at twilight was amazing and the private Lava Tube tour was great. This was a highlight of our trip with a small group of 10 for the day.”
A small-group craft cacao and chocolate tasting at Honolii Orchards on the Big Island, with 10+ single-origin bars and stunning views.
“We truly enjoyed learning about the orchards, the cocoa pods, the process and everything in between. Jude was a most excellent host, very knowledgeable and a pleasure to meet and learn from. The chocolate tasting was amazing! Who knew that there's so much more to it... And wow the flavors! Great experience! It was a rainy day so we did not tour the farm, but enjoyed beautiful views while sampling delicious local chocolate. We definitely stocked up on chocolate❤️”
A 3.5-hour Honolii Orchards cacao tour on the Big Island with orchard + fermentation visits and tastings of 10 craft bars.
“Very cool chocolate farm tour and tasting. Learned lots of new things about cocoa raising and processing. Tasted 15 different types of chocolate and could actually tell the differences between them. Some good, some not so good and some amazing! We bought our favorites and decided to buy some more online!”
