One of the best experiences on the island. Incredible to view what’s underneath the waves. Learned a lot and the crew was professional, friendly and knowledgeable.
Discover our world beneath the waves with Atlantis Submarines Kona! Our battery-powered vessels are the world’s most technologically advanced passenger submarines. A special added bonus of this tour experience is also seeing the Kona coastline while riding our shuttle boat. Dive 100 feet below the surface and experience Kona’s marine mysteries, highlighted by a magnificent and pristine 25-acre natural coral reef garden created by an ancient lava flow. The Kona dive site is frequented by fascinating marine life such as barracuda, yellow tang, eel and parrot fish. See firsthand how sunken ships have combined with Mother Nature to create self-sustaining habitats that attract and feed marine life off the shores of Kona.

It was an absolutely wonderful and memorable experience! My wife was concerned about motion sickness, stuffy conditions, and potential humidity but all her fears were for not. The submarine was air conditioned, the ride incredibly smooth, and airflow was continuous. The crew was exceptional and added to the fun with interesting facts about the ocean ecosystem with plenty of jokes thrown in beside. Theshipwrecks were really cool, and we saw tons of fish of all sizes, and even an eel. If you are feeling at all nervous about this, don't be - you are in good and capable hands and up for a truly unique experience.

Very cool being underwater but a bit disappointing there wasn't a lot to look at (some fish but none too exotic, a couple ships that had sunk, spare tires and other junk on the ocean floor) and the non-stop talking by the tour guide (with so little substance about what we were seeing) interfered with the experience, plus the trying-to-be-cute musical selections (Baby Shark? Jailhouse Rock, which I still don't get?) were just annoying. I was hesitant to write/post this but the experience could be so much better with less talking and a good script with interesting information about the ocean and the fish and the sub (where was it built, how does it work), especially for $160 per person.

Great experience. Fun and educational voyage about the local fish, ecology and the choral reef system. 111 ft deep gradually. 2 ship wrecks.

It was a very exciting trip. We went down 107 feet to the bottom of Kailua Bay. We saw a white tip shark, yellow tangs, butterfly fish, and lots of other reef fish among the two shipwrecks.
The crew was very nice.
