Read our review of Fair Wind Cruises' Hula Kai - Snorkel & Whale Watches Along the South Kona Coast

Fair Wind makes daily snorkel and scuba dive cruises (and whale watch cruises in season) along the South Kona Coast of the Big Island, departing from Keauhou Bay, just a 15-minute drive from Kailua Kona.

Fair Wind operates two boats. The Fair Wind II is their older boat, having entered service in 1994. It's a 60-foot aluminum catamaran with covered deck, 15-foot water slide, high jump platform and most of the amenities you'll find on other similar vessels in Hawaii.

Their other vessel, the Hula Kai, is, quite frankly, unlike any other boat you've been on and, without question, the most modern boat sailing in Hawaii today. Fair Wind has definitely "kicked it up a notch" with the Hula Kai.
