We rented snorkeling gear. The equipment was clean and in good condition, and the prices reasonable. Service was very good and the staff was friendly. I will rent from them in the future and will recommend them to my friends. Overall this was a very good experience. Plus, they gave us excellent recommendations on local eateries. (I gave an "above... more

We rented two kayaks and snorkel equipment to paddle across Kealakekua Bay. They put the kayaks onto the top of our car, provided paddles, seats, a cooler, dry paks, and life jackets. They were very friendly and gave us helpful hints on where to land the kayaks on the other side of the bay so we could snorkel. We were... more

Snorkeling in Kealakekua Bay is really amazing, great fish, moray eels, all right in front of your nose. I would recommend Kona Boys highly for their guided kayak/snorkel tour. Overall, they were professional, well organized and our guide was very personable and knowledgeable. We were able to make a reservation only a day or two beforehand and our "group" tour... more

Kona Boys had a display in the shop to give briefings on the area to help visitors get to the best spots and enjoy the day. While the briefing was being given someone was loading... more

Our guide was very knowledgeable. She provided us with her qualifications, a comprehensive orientation, and a brief but entertaining history of Capt. Cook, his voyages and his death. With her help, my granddaughter, who had never snorkeled and wasn't too sure she wanted to, very quickly learned how. She really enjoyed herself and was constantly pointing out to her sister... more

What a great way to kick off our vacation! The Kona area was our first stop in Hawaii and our most memorable, thanks to Kona Boys. The staff were friendly and very helpful, especially when I needed prescription goggles for snorkeling, they made sure I had the closest possible set. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to see anything... more

We rented a kayak to go across Kealakekua Bay from Kona Boys and LOVED it! We loved them, too. Very helpful, knowledgeable, and informative. The guys even put the kayak on our itty bitty car with no problems at all! I recommend Kona Boys to everyone I know who visits the Big Island. They're the best! more
