I went twice during my stay, it’s definitely worth trying if you’re on the Big Island. Hopefully they reopen soon.

Wonderful opportunity to get up close and see the process of farming abalone. This was such an informative and fun tour for everyone in our group​! We really had a great time learning about the importance of farming abalone. Our tour guide was absolutely amazing, he was very knowledgeable about every process involved in the care of abalone. My niece and nephew enjoyed the hands on part of the experience as well so it's great for families. We all loved this experience and look forward to going back with friends and family to learn all about abalone!

We are very saddened by the news that they are going out of business. This has been a go to place for us when visiting

I was the only show for today and thus it was a 'private tour' with Carlos! He was so informative and chill, great guide! Abalone is such a unique creature and very delicious to boot! Great great tour if you are at all curious about this topic.

Carlos gave an exceptional tour. He is very engaging and informative. It was excellent to see the care Big Island Abalone has for the ecology and welfare of the island and the species. The tour was followed by the Kona BBQ experience. WOW! The meal was so delicious. If you haven't visited you are missing out.

Super interesting and fun tour. One of the best things we've ever done in Hawaii. The guide, Kai, was very friendly and knowledgeable.

A very interesting tour! Highly recommend!! Our guide, Kai is very knowledgeable and personable. He was accommodating to my husband’s needs who walks slowly with a cane. The Kona BBQ food truck next door is also a win while you wait for the tour to start or enjoy at the end.
