Ironic Perfection and a Wise Guide for Rookies

Sometimes you take a trip to a perfect place, for instance, Hawaii, but you feel strange--where do you find the instructions for the beach barbeques, snorkel gear, luaus, and umbrella drinks that you have enjoyed from afar in many a Gidget movie, but never really had hand's on experience with? Answer: in Snorkel Bob's cool little book. We lost or gave away our old copy, from a former vacation, and I'm ordering a second one before another trip now. Snorkel Bob is the tongue in cheek John Muir of Hawaii, with his adventures, attitude, and strangely lovely philosophy helping you plan a trip & enjoy it. "What is the feeling? What is the not feeling?" he asks. I feel that this book is amazing and as lulling as an umbrella drink, almost.

Snorkel Bob gets it right!

The writing style of this book is tongue in cheek and can be a bit tiresome, but the information given is right on the money! Blunt and to the point about what to see and what to avoid, Snorkel Bob also gives detailed information about all the beaches on the islands - which are best for swimming, snorkeling, diving, children as well as what time of year to go to each beach and what amenities are available at each. A real time saver!

Best Guide to Hawaii I've read

Leave it to Snorkel Bob, Himself to provide words of wisdom to anyone visiting Hawaii. Thank you Snorkel Bob--You made our trip fantastic!

Hilarious and Accurate!

One of the best travel books I've encountered and easily the wackiest, Snorkel Bob tells it like it is. Unerringly accurate and laugh-out-loud funny.
