Kona was nice, you have to take the tender boat off ship. We did the glassbottom boat tour and I definetely do not recommend this. You seat around a square table with 4 ppl, the glass is down in the center of table, so u have to look down, over the table at all time hopping u can see sea life. We did not saw nothing just tiny colourful fishes, terrible tour. I was sea sick and could not look down anymore.😀 After the tour, we walked at the pier and did a little shop at many stores they have it there and delicious had lunch at The Fish Hopper restaurant. There is a lot options to eat out there.

Hit it on a windy day, and if it's like that when you get there...My recommendation would be to not leave the ship! It's "tender only" [no dock] and our experience getting to/from the ship to Kailua-Kona was interesting to say the least...saw some people fall getting on/off tender and numerous people were "getting up there in years" so canes/walkers were difficult to manage, even saw a tender have a line break while tied to the dock, and boat was just bobbing like a cork in a bottle all the way back to the ship and while tied up at the dock. Had our "land and sea" had to get cancelled after trying to manage wind with paper boxed lunches and seas knocking drinks off tables, so catamaran captain ended excursion early and took us back to dock. Then we couldn't get to dock because wind was wreaking havoc on all boats coming in/out. Wind can be unpredictable, but we'll stay onboard next time! Kona is a beautiful place and hope to see more of it next time on a better weather day.
