Once in a lifetime - I read reviews and watched YouTube and I had few expectations. The reality is moreover! It is an experience that anyone who has a little knowledge of swimming and has the opportunity should do it! The team were very helpful and kind and the mantas gave us an unforgettable show!

Great experience and Company - This company does it right. It has a great staging area right next to the dock, a nice facility, professional staff, and quality equipment. It even has a facemask with a prescription to help those with glasses see everything clearly.

SeaQuest was the best - We did a lot of research on all the companies that offered night manta ray experiences and this had the highest reviews. We liked the fact that it was a short 5 minute boat ride to the viewing area, instead of a long boat ride from somewhere else. The crew was excellent. We all put on wet suits which kept us warm. We brought sweatshirts to put on after we got on the boat but did not need them. We saw 6 manta rays and they even rubbed up against us. Amazing. Highly recommend Sea Quest.

The mantas were amazing.... - The mantas were amazing. The only thing to make it better would have been if they offered pictures of the mantas back at the shop.

Awesome experience - The team is amazing. Only took few minutes to the place and it’s so close to see the Mantas. The tour guides told us many interesting stories about Manta as well. Love the ginger tea at the end. It’s awesome experience :)

An absolute must do experience! - I was absolutely terrified to do this but am so incredibly grateful that I did! This was the most amazing experience ever for both myself and my husband! Definitely a MUST DO while on the Big Island! The mantas come right up to you and put on the most spectacular show you’ll ever witness! Just do it! The crew is amazing and so informative and comforting! Loved this so much!

Highly recommend! - This is such an amazing experience! I can’t find a word about how spectacular the manta swimming on your face! And the guys in Sea Quest are so friendly and helpful! They kindly take carefully my girlfriend who is not very good at swimming. She felt very safe with their help!

Great Manta Ray tour - This was 2nd time to join the Manta Ray tour. The first time was 3 years ago. The tour guides all great. Very nice team member, and excellent service. And they are the closest set to reach the site, only five minutes boat ride, not like others have to take 20 minutes cold ride in the night time.
