We were so comfortable! It was amazing. If you are scared, my dad made it with just one arm and at 74 years young. You can do it too! We will tell all our friends!!

May 2008

We had the best time with Angel, Chris, Anna and Phil. They were wonderful, helpful, pleasant and all around great! We switched from another company due to Angel's enthusiasm.

Ryia & Dan, Juneau, AK

Had a great time. Love the small groups you serve. Tara is a great divemaster and quite the nut (in a good way). Jeff is also very entertaining and safety conscious. We will be back!

Jim & Sue P., Sacramento, CA

Wow! Wow! Wow! This was our fifth year diving with Rich's wonderful crews! This year we enjoyed Captain Jeff's "wry" humor and pirate jokes. Tara is the best! She is so good getting gear ready, checking with us and then remembering what we need. She knows the dive sites and found wonderful critters for us to enjoy every dive. We love the way Sea Paradise accommodates every diver's needs from beginner to advance and from brave to not so adventuresome. We will see you again March of 2009.

Alan & Anne H., Springfield, OR

Great snorkel and crew. I saw a bunch of fish and a lobster. Excellent lunch and "talk story. Mahalo and a hui hou.

Dear Sea Paradise,

I have to write this email.  I have been coming to Kona and diving in the area for 10 years and 6 trips.  I recently took a morning snorkel cruise on the Hökühele with my family last Friday.  It was absolutely perfect.

We had a great time, your staff was excellent, courteous and totally dedicated to our satisfaction and having a good experience.   For what it's worth, our condo company tried to book us on the Xxxx Xxxx that was sold-out and booked us with you instead. Boy am I glad!!!  I only wish I could bottle up the feeling, the breeze, the look on my kids faces and the view, the sea and the great time we had to experience it all the time.

Thank you for doing a great job.  You made our vacation.  I will call you guys first next time!!!!

Warmest Regards,              

Charlie, Mary, Sarah & Rachel, Flower Mound, TX
