Land and Sea Combo - Circle Island Tour

Discover the Best of Hawaii with a Two-Day Island and Ocean Adventure

Experience the incredible diversity of Hawaii through a two-day adventure that combines spectacular island sightseeing with an unforgettable marine excursion. The journey begins with a comprehensive Circle Island Tour, an 11 to 12-hour exploration of the Big Island's remarkable landscapes, where changing climate zones reveal everything from volcanic terrain and dry forests to lush rainforests and fertile pastures. Guided by knowledgeable local experts, you'll gain fascinating insights into Hawaii's geology, history, culture, and unique natural environment.

Throughout the day, visit some of the island's most iconic attractions, including the breathtaking Akaka Falls, the picturesque Rainbow Falls, the dramatic Waipio Valley, and Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Explore volcanic craters, steaming vents, and ancient lava tubes while discovering the powerful forces that continue to shape the island. The adventure also includes visits to beautiful black-sand beaches, where you may spot Hawaiian green sea turtles resting along the shoreline.

On the second day, set out from Kona for a 4.5-hour morning dolphin snorkeling adventure in pristine marine sanctuaries accessible only by boat. Surrounded by crystal-clear waters, you'll explore vibrant coral reefs that support more than 600 species of marine life. Spinner dolphins are frequently seen alongside the vessel and may even swim near snorkelers, creating unforgettable encounters in one of Hawaii's richest underwater ecosystems. High-quality snorkeling equipment, reef-safe sunscreen, and guidance from lifeguard-trained crew members ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for both beginners and experienced snorkelers.

After your time in the water, unwind aboard the boat as you cruise back along the stunning Kona coastline. Guests can relax while taking in panoramic ocean views and may purchase refreshments from the premium onboard cash bar. Blending volcanic landscapes, cultural discovery, and extraordinary marine wildlife, this two-day experience offers an unforgettable introduction to the natural wonders of Hawaii on both land and sea.
