The deliciousness of
the island’s best pizza
all started 45 years
ago when Joe Rocco
opened the original
Rocco’s Pizza on
the mainland. Along
with a commitment
to creating authentic,
homemade pizzas, he
also passed down the
importance of hard
work, pride, respect and family to his children who grew up
in the family business. Now daughter Yvonne has opened
her own ROCCO’S PIZZA PUB in Kealakekua with the goal
of offering the same level of quality food and service she
grew up with, while never forgetting the importance of family,
tradition and community. Every pizza is made to order using
the absolute freshest local island ingredients. There’s also a
fantastic selection of local craft beers and live music on select
nights. Open Wednesday through Sunday from 12pm to
10pm.

Imagine yourself surrounded by pods of dolphins in the crystal
clear waters off Kona.  Now make the dream a reality with
MY KONA ADVENTURES’ Dolphin Swim! While dolphin
encounters can’t be 100% guaranteed—their success rate
of 98% is pretty close. Swim with the dolphins as they jump
and play, and observe the dolphins that are resting and
nurturing their young down below. The acrobatic antics of the
very social Hawaiian Spinner dolphins are always a thrill. My
Kona Adventures is a Hawaiian and disabled veteran owned
company that offers small, intimate charters and unparalleled
customer service. The experienced staff goes above and
beyond to ensure you have the trip of a lifetime! Fun for all
ages.

The Manta Ray Night Snorkel Trip with MY KONA
ADVENTURES is a magical experience you will never forget!
The small, intimate charter avoids the crowds and finds larger
concentrations of plankton—meaning more Manta Rays!
You’ll swim and snorkel while these magnificent giants dance
and float right in front of your eyes. My Kona Adventures is a
Hawaiian and disabled veteran owned company offering the
very best personalized and customized care for the whole
family. This extremely unique activity is one you don’t want to
miss—make sure to bring an underwater camera. Two to three
trips nightly and tour times vary throughout the year.
