Discover Hilo’s Underwater Magic with Hilo Scuba Diving Snorkel Tours

Hilo, Hawaii is known for its lush rainforests, cascading waterfalls, and vibrant culture — but just below the ocean’s surface lies another world waiting to be explored. If you’re ready to experience the Big Island from a whole new perspective, Hilo Scuba Diving offers guided snorkeling tours that bring you face-to-face with the island’s incredible marine life.

  • Green sea turtles (honu) grazing in shallow lagoons

  • Colorful reef fish like butterflyfish, parrotfish, and triggerfish

  • Octopus and eels hiding among the lava rock

  • And on lucky days, even spinner dolphins offshore!

Hilo’s underwater ecosystem is vibrant and diverse — a living rainbow just beneath the surface.
