Join us, just a few minutes above beautiful Kealakekua Bay on the South Kona coast, where Spinner Dolphins often frolic in the morning sun. Borrow our two-person kayak and paddle across the bay to the Captain Cook Monument, site of the famous British explorer's demise and some of the best snorkeling on the Big Island.
Surrounded by mango, macadamia, breadfruit, and coffee trees, you will awaken to the sounds of birds on our private two acres of property. Dolphin Bay Hideaway is a separate and spacious one bedroom, one bath apartment adjoining our home. With a kitchen full of amenities and gas barbecue outside, you may choose to eat all your meals in. Yet despite the property's rural feel, excellent dining and shopping are just minutes away.
Scuba divers will enjoy a wide variety of nearby dive sites. Certified Scuba instruction and guided dive tours are also available through the owner's dive business, "Wanna Dive?". We will be happy to direct beach goers to any number of secluded, uncrowded beaches within 10 to 30 minutes of your accommodations, including Manini, Keei, and Ho'okena. The lovely Place of Refuge National Park is only minutes away. Snorkel gear, beach chairs and mats, beach towels, and coolers are available for your enjoyment and convenience.
Come relax with us at Dolphin Bay Hideaway, and find out what an enjoyable vacation is meant to be!

You made it! Jump in for a refreshing cool off. Walk just little distance toward the back of the bay and check out the Cook Monument up close.

This is the water entry point for one of the best known shore dives and snorkeling sites on the island.
At least, that's what the locals call it. There is a wonderful picnic area here with tables and grills. At the far end, you can find the trailhead for the King's Trail and hike for several miles along
A nice little beach park. Shower and bathroom facilities. Nice beach, some snorkeling.
Local produce and products. Sundays 9am to 1pm.

Owner's Map of Captain Cook
Steve and I fell in love with Kona and the Big Island while vacationing here in 1997. We had only been on the island for a few hours when we both asked, "What would it be like to live here?" And the rest, as they say, is history. We both had more than a passing interest in SCUBA diving, and the clear, warm waters of Kona beckoned. Little did I know that starting and managing a dive charter business and, recently, a dive shop would be the result! We love making our home here in Kona and invite our guests to come experience the beauty of this magical place, both above and under the water.
