Where You Can Go on a Kona Private Boat Charter

The beauty of booking a private boat charter with Sea Quest Hawaii is that you open up so many opportunities for adventure; the Kona coastline is there for you to discover! Without limitations of a predetermined tour of one of the reefs or at the whim of the others who have booked the same trip as you– the possibilities of what to do are completely at your discretion.

Is your group one filled with marine enthusiasts who want to venture to as many reefs in Kona as possible to hop in and snorkel- our captain can oblige! Or, are you more so looking to stay relatively dry and spend the day exploring the underwater lava tubes and sea caves at the base of Hualalai, possibly spotting pods of dolphins or whales- we can accommodate that too!

What is Included on a Kona Private Boat Charter

A private boat charter around the Kona Coastline is a wholly unique experience. Not having to abide by a specific schedule or itinerary opens up the day to truly maximize your time on the water. You have the power to work with our captain and create an adventure unique to the items on your Big Island bucket list.

What you will see on your private boat charter of Kona, is dependent on a multitude of factors, most notably the where and when around your booking. For example, if you choose to book your tour with us during the winter and want to explore along the coastline, you may get to see some humpback whales breaching. On the other hand, if you are looking to spend the majority of your time with us exploring coral reefs, then a tour that leaves earlier in the day and prioritizes visiting some of Kona’s greatest snorkeling spots, is the way you’d want to go.

How Much Does a Private Boat Charter Cost?

Our private boat charters are based on the tours we offer on our website. You do a buyout of the boat for the particular tour that looks the most appealing to you to make it a private charter. Our charter rates have a 15% discount built into the pricing as a thank you for buying out the boat. Please keep in mind that when you book a private charter we do not have to stick to the itinerary that we would for a public tour, we are happy to customize the experience to your group’s needs!

What You Will See on Your Private Charter of Kona

We briefly touched on this, but to reiterate, what you will see on your private boat charter with us is completely dependent on a variety of factors. When you are looking to book, be sure and take into account what is the most important thing for you and your group to do or see, and check that against the time of year. The humpback whale population only travels to Hawaii from November to March, on average; therefore, if a whale watch while chartering our boat is important, try and book during the winter. Contrary, if you want to book your time out on the water with us as a way to escape the heat and cool off in the salty ocean while coming into close contact with a variety of reef creatures, then a summer private charter would be a great option!
