SNUBA
Safe, Easy, No Experience necessary!
Your Snuba dive can go to a maximum of 25 feet, but you can stay at whatever depth (or the surface) you please. The only equipment you wear is a light-weight harness with a scuba regulator attached to breathe from. A 25' hose attaches you to a small raft that floats on the surface. This raft carries your scuba tank for you and follows your every move. A small weight-belt, mask, and fins make up the rest of your gear.
The Kona Coast has endless shore dives available from more remote locations that afford you the chance to dive away from the crowds and see marine life only few can imagine. We can accommodate anyone ages 8 and up on Snuba, 4 and up on Snuba Doo.
A floatation vest and a regulator attached to the Snuba raft allows you to stay on the surface and cruise above the Snuba and Scuba Divers below. Choose your activity, progress at your pace!
Snuba Doo allows kids from 4 through 7 years of age to join their older siblings, parents or family members on a shared Snuba experience. Kids wear a specially designed floatation vest, which provides buoyancy to support the participant on the surface. A standard regulator with smaller, kid's sized, mouthpiece provides a supply of air connected the air cylinder located on the Snuba raft.
The Snuba Doo airline is 10 feet in length, which is the furthest distance the Snuba Doo kid's can be from the Snuba raft. Safer than snorkeling, Snuba Doo kids can cruise along above their family and friends while power snorkeling from the surface. If they get tired they can lay on the Snuba raft. They never have to worry about sucking in salt water through a Snorkel and most importantly, a Snuba Guide will be with the group the entire time.
Snuba Doo is a fantastic innovation to promote family entertainment, this way the younger ones don’t get left behind!
