Editorial Summary

The creator describes a Big Island snorkeling shore excursion offered by NCL. The experience begins with a continental breakfast on the vessel before traveling south along the coast for approximately forty five minutes to an hour. The excursion features various amenities including a fifteen foot water slide, a twenty foot high jump, and provided snorkeling gear along with flotation devices. The tour visits Red Hill, which is a long area along the Kona Coast containing several different snorkeling locations. Participants receive two and a half hours of open water time where they have the freedom to swim as they please while crew members remain available to assist. The creator concludes that the goal of the crew is to provide more than just a standard snorkel tour by offering excitement and various trimmings to ensure guests have a fun and positive experience.
