A lifelong love of the ocean has shaped both my career and my life. I grew up boating in the Carolinas before moving to Hawaii in 2005, where I turned my passion into a profession as a boat tour guide. Since becoming a U.S. Coast Guard licensed captain in 2013, I've spent thousands of days exploring Kona's incredible waters, and I still look forward to every trip. Nothing brings me more joy than sharing Hawaii's vibrant marine ecosystem with visitors. Whether we're snorkeling over colorful coral reefs with vibrant tropical fish, sea turtles, and manta rays, or searching offshore for dolphins, whales, sharks, and more, I love introducing guests to the marine life and spectacular scenery that make Hawaii so extraordinary through the eyes of someone who truly loves the ocean. I intentionally limit my tours to six guests or fewer, creating a relaxed, personal experience with plenty of individual attention. Every snorkel tour also includes an experienced, lifeguard-certified snorkel guide who provides personalized assistance in and out of the water, helping guests of all experience levels feel comfortable and confident. With comfortable seating, premium snorkel equipment, and unobstructed views from every seat, my boat is designed to help you relax and fully enjoy your day on the water. After more than 20 years exploring Kona's coastline, I know how to match each day's conditions with the best locations to help fulfill your Kona wish list. I genuinely love what I do, and I'm already excited to welcome you aboard and share the beautiful ocean that I love so much!
