Family with Manta Rey’s - I recommend that you try this adventure at least once, this was my 4th time and I would do it again! Never get tired of seeing the Mantas! They come so close to you, it’s a memory you never forget.

An amazing experience! - Amazing tour! Smooth check-in and -out and professional crews. Big shout out to Deavon, Koa, Kanana and Greg who kept us safe and made the tour enjoyable. We saw four mantas, they were so close to us (don’t touch them). Still feel surreal, an unforgettable experience.

Manta Ray Magic - Had an amazing experience! Everyone was wonderful and really helped ease my kids minds about the trip. They loved the manta snorkel and we booked another excursion for later in the week that night!

Amazing Manta Ray Experience - Amazing manta ray night snorkeling experience! Deavon was our host and communication was great, with advance notice before we headed to the meeting area. We saw 3–4 manta rays swim just inches away from us. It was incredible to see these gentle giants up close! The crew was friendly, funny, and Greg was so knowledgeable, and did a great job educating us and answering our questions, making the experience truly unforgettable. Definitely worth the money! Tip: expect a possible delay in the start time, but they’ll let you know in advance, and definitely bring a waterproof phone case.

Amazing! Second time and still worth it! - Great experience. Went at 7:20pm and lots to see. Deavon, Cody, Leo and Dave were great and knowledgeable. They helped out my parents who are older and a little hard of hearing.

No Mantas, twice, company is reliable - The tour operator did a good job. They looked after my 9 yo good. My only complaints is the small boat and you can’t take anything on board, not even wear your water shoes. That sucked and made climbing up the ladder more difficult. Also you have to rent wet suits and vests so if you do this it’s the same price as the larger tour operators with big comfortable catamaran. We went twice in one week 1st week in October 26’ but no mantas. Sadly they were on vacation. I’ve scuba dived in Kona 7 times with lots of mantas every time so this trip was disappointing. This company did honor their no see mantas get a free trip to do it again. After 2 nights of no mantas we decided to skip a 3rd try. The people operating this boat did a great job but I personally will go out on a bigger boat next time. Luckily it’s only a 5 minute ride to the mana site. This tour is also very short at only 25 minutes where most companies are 40 to 45. When the sea is rough or no mantas then you want the shorter tour time. 😉 this smaller ribbed inflatable boat did not rock any more then a catamaran in case your concerned about motion sickness. I take lots of ginger to offset motion sickness anyway. All in all the tour operator is more reliable then the manta rays are. 😆

Night 2 was better than Night 1 - OK so we were one of the groups where we tried a 2nd time because the first experience was terrible. Water was rough, it was pouring rain on us the entire time, and the organizer assigned for the day was unorganized and all over the place. We did not see Mantas that night but the entire experience was not good and we almost did not try again. We finally decided to give it another go and Devin was the coordinator that night and he was great. So detailed and clear instructions. Overally there should be clearer instructions as to where the meetup spot is - yall need a sign or something to just indicate we need to find a white van. Its nice that they guarantee multiple tries until you see Mantas but that might not always work with your travel schedule.

Great guide and beautiful manta ray - It is a very quick tour but Cody was a great guide who taught us a lot about the manta rays! We saw one manta ray named Kenzie but it kept coming back and got really close to us. Wish we got to see more but at least she kept coming back! I was scared of touching it since I didn't want it to get hurt but luckily she just kept swimming by and showing off her majestic self! Kalela, Roy, Cody, and Deavon were very helpful.

DO NOT BOOK HERE - Said they hadn't seen mantas that day or the day before. Knowing we were leaving the next day, guide promised a refund if we didn't see any. It was a lie and the owner hung up on me when I called the next day as instructed to get a refund. What a scam. Go with SeaQuest. Much more reputable, I had a great experience with them in 2025.
