Highly recommend - This company was great! They are a smaller company so were very attentive and it was a smaller group of customers, which made it really special! Friendly and personable, and the mantas were stunning!!

Unforgettable Manta Ray Experience - That was one of the most amazing moments of my life. The mantas were flipping for us like it was a show. Unforgettable experience. We also got to see some baby whales on the way. What an experience.

Amazing!! - What an incredible experience for our family to see the manta rays up close. Monet & Brandon were great and made us feel very comfortable from the beginning. It was a small group and we never felt crowded or rushed. Monet stays in the water with you the whole time and the videos were amazing! Highly recommend Eco Ocean Tours and definitely try to do the offshore safari with them. That was the highlight of our whole trip!!

Absolutely Amazing - An Outstanding Experience for Our Family. I can’t recommend Eco Ocean Tours highly enough! We booked a tour with our three kids, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations. From the moment we arrived, Monet and Brenden were incredibly friendly and welcoming. They immediately put both us and the kids at ease, which made all the difference. What really stood out was their knowledge - they were passionate about marine life and shared fascinating information throughout the trip in a way that was engaging for both adults and children. The team was genuinely caring about the ocean environment and the wildlife we encountered, which gave us confidence that we were supporting a responsible operation. They were also wonderfully accommodating with our family’s needs, showing patience and flexibility that made the day smooth and enjoyable even with three energetic kids in tow. We enjoyed the manta ray dive so much that my daughter and I jumped at the chance to book their last two available seats on the sea safari tour the next morning - and we were rewarded with an incredible whale shark encounter! The only disappointment was that there weren’t more seats available so we could have brought my sons along too. That speaks volumes about how special these experiences are. If you’re looking for a tour operator that combines professionalism with genuine warmth, especially if you’re traveling with children, Eco Ocean Tours is the perfect choice. We left with amazing memories and a deeper appreciation for the ocean. Thank you to Monet and Brenden!

Amazing night dive watching Mantas up close - Thanks Monet and Brandon for being friendly and cooperative making our dive enjoyable. Brandon was amazing with piloting the zodiac making the ride to the dive site pleasant. Monet was amazing with the support and photography and explaining about mantas. There were only 12 people on the zodiac. We saw around 3 mantas in our 30 minutes in the water. We are not good swimmers but are comfortable with snorkeling in water using the life vest. However, they don’t provide life vest but rather waist floatation noodle which is more than enough for a comfortable and safe dive. PS: There were other tour operators at the same site who had noodles that looked not as good as the ones we had and also there were 30+ people on board. Highly recommend going with this couple’s tour company.

Loved it - Great captain and guide. Small group, clean boat, very knowledgeable, worked hard to get the most sightings we could

Did the night manta ray... - Did the night manta ray tour and it was an absolute highlight of my trip! Monet and Brendan were great guides who made you feel very welcome. They were down to earth, knowledgeable and had a very respectful approach to their tour. They sent the videos before I even got back to my accomodation and the quality of those videos were unreal. My only regret was not booking the offshore safari tour, but I’ll just have to save it for next time. Mahalo for having me, until next time!

Best Guides in Kona - The Night Manta Ray Snorkel was an incredible introduction to this company. The harbor is easy to find and only about 10 minutes away from our hotel in Kailua-Kona. Easy and free parking is always a plus too. Monet and Brenden are professional, knowledgeable, and all-around great people to spend time with. As soon as we got in the water, we had a quick safety briefing and watched a beautiful sunset. Even caught the green flash. It quickly got dark as we made our way to the dive spot where Monet educated us about the manta rays and how to enjoy them without disturbing them. Before we even got in the water, 2 huge manta rays were already swimming under the lights. They made sure everybody was comfortable in the water and even provided wetsuits to keep us warm and floaties to rest our feet on. Once we were in the water, we saw so many mantas!!! Monet even knew their names and had some fun facts about them and their different personalities and stories. They swam so close to us and we spent about 30 mins enjoying them before heading back to the harbor. We had such an amazing experience with the crew on this excursion, we decided we would book for the Offshore Ocean Safari for the following morning. We cannot recommend Ocean Eco Tours enough. They are professional, responsible, knowledgeable, and so kind. We were sure to leave a nice tip as well, as you will never have a crew like this anywhere else. Thank you Monet and Brenden!!

Was great!! Small group... - Was great!! Small group of fellow travellers. Nice guides. Saw a few mantas. Snorkeling was relatively easy (did it once before).
