  Captain Jim, our buddy Brooks and Kenny made our snorkeling adventure on the Big Island the absolute highlight of our vacation. We got the phenomenally awesome opportunity to swim with pilot whales (I got fairly up close and personal to two pretty large bulls flanking a baby calf swimming between them), swam in close proximoty to dozens of spinner dolphins, viewed an abundance of species of multicolored fish along a sweet coral reef and viewed what was thought to be a silky shark hanging out just below the surface near the bow of the boat. It was one of those once in a lifetime experiences that will provide lasting and treasured memories for the rest of our lives. MAHALO for the incredible time and for providing us an awe-inspiring and amazing trip. Lunch of a variety of sandwich wraps and fresh, sweet pineapple that tasted like candy was delicious, too. Many thanks to the captain and crew for making this one of the most magical days of my life. We're definitely planning to do it again when we return to the big island in the future. Only regret: manta ray night dives were booked solid but we know to plan ahead for that next time! Words can't adequately express how extraordinary this tour was. Mu husband and I very highly recommend this tour.

  Of the countless whales watches I've done, this was by far the best. This crew will do everything in their power to find you whales and dolphins to frolic with. What an unforgettable day. Two male humpbacks fighting for the affection of a mother while her calf breached over and over as close as were allowed to get. The dolphin swim was surreal. Transparent waters provide epic views of everything, even at depths of 100 ft. If I ever get back to the Big Island, a cruise with Neptune Charlie's will be one of my first reservations.
