A great time seeing mantas with a hard working crew! - Night snorkeling with the mantas is a must-do activity in Kona! Our crew worked extra hard for us. Our original tour was canceled due to weather but manta adventures went above and beyond to accommodate us on a different day. The boat was very nice, as were the snorkels and wet suits (shorts length). The whole family had a nice time and we got to see lots of mantas up close. It was surreal and amazing. Don't miss it!

Amazing! - Our manta ray snorkel trip was absolutely fantastic, thanks to the incredible staff members Cliff, Kayin, and Mariah. When we messed up the time of our tour they were able to squeeze us on the earlier one. Their knowledge and enthusiasm made the experience educational and fun, while their friendly and helpful nature ensured we felt comfortable throughout the tour. Cliff shared some great facts about the island with us and we enjoyed our conversations with him. When we struggled to get an Uber after the tour, Kayin and Mariah went above and beyond by offering us rides back to our hotel. Moriah even ended up taking us back herself, which was incredibly kind and greatly appreciated. Their exceptional service truly made our trip memorable!

Wonderful experience - The captain and crew of this business are professional, friendly, and run a very smooth, safe operation. They are more than fair in giving you another shot when you don’t see rays. The first time we went out, we actually did see one right at the bottom so technically they didn’t have to give us another trip for free, but they did because they have excellent customer service skills. We saw a whale do a tail slap and also saw dolphins and a double rainbow to top off the excursion. Highly recommend his business if you are interested in an outing to see the man rays!

Happy with tour company but disappointed about trip.. - We went on the tour because it looked the most professional and clean of the choices. Both were excited. The captain warned us about the swells and possibility of not being able to go into the water. Well, we cruised to the site and sure enough the waves were big.. The captain came down from the perch and cancelled the dive.. In my opinion the RIGHT thing to do.. they refunded the money and while disappointed everyone came home alive, safe and still in one piece. Would use them again, he had 27 customers which is about 4500 in revenue but was thinking more about our safety then the cash...

A MUST DO ADVENTURE! - This was a MUST DO trip! My husband was not really into it when I first brought it up but was talked into it by the other couple we were with and after he was SO glad we did this trip! The captain and his crew we so amazing and knowledgeable. The lights they use attracted so many Mantas that the other people in the area were coming over to where we were to try and steal them. Also, because they were able to attract them so easily we were able to stay close to the boat and did not have to move around to find the Mantas. I felt very safe with this excursion team! Thank you for such an amazing trip!

Must do excursion! - Had an amazing time on the water, making wonderful memories. Huge shout out to Capt. Danny and Brent as well as his crew member Chad. for being super informative and safety forward. I can't wait to see them next time on the island to see the mantas up-close again!

Fabulous!! - Captain Bill and the whole crew were wonderful. They truly cared about our comfort and safety and that of the mantas. This was by far the best boat, with a long in-water time, and not over crowded. Seeing the mantas so up close was an incredible experience that we will remember forever. If you want a comfortable trip with a very pleasant crew then book this one!!

Incredible company - This was my second time out with this company for the Manta Night Snorkel, the first being in Dec/23, when we got to experience a large number of Mantas. This year, we did not see mantas the night we went out, but the company graciously offered to take us out again with no charge. They were even very flexible when we had to change that booking due to an illness in our party. Huge shout out to Captain Bill and his crew, Callum, Kai and Cliff - even though it was not our night to see Mantas, the experience was incredible due to the professionalism and caring of this company, not to mention the humpback whale and dolphins that were present.
