Are you fascinated with the coral reef and Hawaiian History? Is your ideal work environment out on the water interacting with people who are looking to have fun? If so, this might be the job for you!
Our narrators are fun, entertaining, and knowledgeable people who inform our guests about almost everything under the sun, (and sea). The narration topics consist of Hawaii’s marine life, culture, and history. The primary subject is Kona’s coral reef ecology. Also discussed is the history of Kailua Bay, geology of the Hawaiian Islands, Hawaii’s marine mammals and other marine creatures. Some terrestrial ecology/biology and fun facts are discussed as applicable to the group’s interest.
In addition to the Reef Tours, we also offer Private Charters, Ash Scatterings, and Sunset Tours. These tours are sometimes outside the established weekly schedule, and if so, would be scheduled on a case-by-case basis.
