Biggs Hawaii operates out of Waimea on the island of Hawaiʻi and runs marine tours and fishing charters departing from Kawaihae South (Kawaihae South Small Boat Harbor). The company offers a range of guided experiences including manta ray snorkel and sunset tours, whale watching excursions, turtle snorkel and dolphin viewing trips, and private reef and deep-trolling fishing charters.
Guides on Biggs Hawaii tours provide onboard interpretation and wildlife viewing focused on local species: manta rays feeding on plankton, humpback whales (including mothers and calves), sea turtles, spinner dolphins, and abundant reef fish. Fishing trips include light-tackle reef fishing targeting species like rainbow runners and uku, and deeper trolling trips for Mahi Mahi, Ono, and Ulua using professional equipment and crew. Trip durations range from 1.5-hour sunset and whale tours to 2.5–3-hour snorkel trips and 4-hour fishing charters.
Biggs Hawaii positions safety and family accessibility as priorities: several tours are described as family-friendly and manta tours note suitability for children aged 5 and up. The company emphasizes experienced guides and professional crew for guided snorkeling, wildlife viewing, and sportfishing.
