Not as professional as their competitors (boat had no company markings, hardly any signage), but, with a discount from online, they were worth it. There were only 5 of us on the boat, and they got us to the snorkel site before the other boats (and the crowd).

Dolphin Discoveries Snorkel trips
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/11/07
I liked the small groups and small boats. The company is owned by a husgand and wife who also have excellent guides for the trips which they do not lead themselves. I found their knowledge of the island and the sealife good. The trips were interesting and just energitic enough to make you feel good not over worked. It was great fun! I have gone on other cruises, but have gone back to them repeatedly when I visit the Big Island each year.

Wouldn't do it again
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/23/07
I've gone out with Dolphin Discoveries twice. The first time was in 2004, when I chartered 2 boats for a corporate event. The service and the experience was phenomenal, which is why I decided to go out with them again in 2007 when I was visiting the Big Island for pleasure, just my boyfriend and me. This time the service was cold, and the ...

A Must-Do when in Kailua-Kona!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/21/06
By far the best activity we did and worth every penny! We took the a.m. snorkel. Guides were eco-sensitive, energetic and very personable. We were given info about what they had seen in the past and what we were seeing on our excursion. Very kid friendly. Our 8 year old daughter snorkeled with us but they also had the boogie boards with the ...
The people where nice, and told you all about the dolphins, what kind they where, where they usually school. I Felt Like I Was In Another World, The Dolphins Rode The Waves Coming From The Boat They Where So Close And So Wild.

No dolphins, but had a great time anyways!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/14/05
Dolphin Discoveries is awesome! It was definitely one of the most fun things we did while we were on the Big Island. Very pleasant and knowledgable guides who made the day a lot of fun. Some of the best snorkeling in the world is right along the Kona Coast and it is well worth it to have Dolphin Discoveries introduce you to it!

It was amazing!!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/07/05
This was the funnest thing we did while in Hawaii! The crew was awesome and very knowledgeable. The price was excellent, I think it was a real good deal. We went snorkeling and that was incredible!! The crew always knew the answers when we would pop up & ask what a specific fish was. Seeing the wild spinner dolpins was incredible, they are so beautiful!! When I go back, I will def do this again!!
