The trip is very personalized, fun for all ages and abilities and BRING YOUR CAMERA! You're going to see caves, patagonian parrots, snowflake... more

Doing the Manta-Ray night snorkle was the highlight of my family's week long stay in Kona by far! Not only were the Manta-Rays amazing but Kris and Saifon were the nicest and coolest people we met on the entire trip. They are both so cool and nice and make you feel like life long friends. It is too bad that... more

We joined Captain Kris Henry on the evening manta ray tour and it was absolutely phenomenal! Captain Kris was the most gracious host, extremely knowledgeable of the island and the different species. I highly recommend his tours! more

Six hours on the water, exploring the ocean and Kealakeakua Bay. We started our trip with the sighting of spinner... more

I've been fortunate to enjoy Kris's trip 3 times and am looking forward to another this fall. What sets SHR apart from the others? Kris is a local boy - and his love and knowledge of the island adds to the already outstanding experience of being on the gorgeous water. He is full of stories and shares some lesser known... more
