From small to large groups, we have it all.
Hawaiian Adventures Kona not only offers one, but two unique private tour opportunities. With two different vessels, we’re able to accommodate both large and small groups. We understand that group sizes and preferences vary, which is why we boast two unique vessels, each designed to provide an unforgettable adventure:
For groups of up to six guests, our 32 ft center console Callisto offers an exclusive ocean experience. From mission-focused wildlife searches to laid-back cruising along Kona’s picturesque coastlines, we can build your perfect private tour.
For groups of up to forty-two, our 46 ft catamaran Artemis is the vessel for your entire entourage. Picture your next large family gathering, wedding, corporate event, or custom celebration on a boat that offers space, stability, and comfort.
Sample Small Group Tours
The ultimate luxury when on a Hawaiian vacation is moving at your group's own pace. Whether you’re a full-speed-ahead wildlife fanatic or on island-time, our private tours have the ultimate flexibility and widest range of options when it comes to designing your adventure.

Whale watching in Kona is year-round! Hawaiian Adventures Kona has access to both near-shore and pelagic zones, which gives you the opportunity to see humpback whales during winter months, Hawaiian spinner dolphins, bottlenose dolphins, manta rays, flying fish, pilot whales, beaked whales, sperm whales, spotted dolphins, whale sharks, and more!
Experience the real Kona nightlife and meet the mantas! Our Kona Night Manta tours depart strategically out of Honokohau Harbor, giving us the ability to head where there’s better conditions, fewer people, and more manta rays. This small-group tour is the best way to experience the #1 activity on the Big Island.
