Do it! - This was an awesome experience made more fun with the crew! They were so interactive and helpful which made it even better.
We were so lucky to see so many manta reys and the crew made it even better my making sure we hooked on with other groups around us, were t fighting for space or anything. Would recommend this 100 times over!

This is the right one to book. Don’t hesitate. - Don’t hesitate to book this one. Not only is it a convenient location to downtown Kona but you get a bonus long sunset cruise and nice cruise longer than most tours. Plus they don’t rush you and really make it a fun experience to see one of the coolest things in the world. Just show up in a swim suit with a towel and they provide the rest to include snacks and drinks. You see a lot of other tours out at the site that are rushed and not as fun. This is the one.

Very cool experience!!... - Very cool experience!! Staff took good care of us. Three people in our group could not swim but were still able to participate. The captain spotted whales on our way out and made it possible for us to see three consecutive whale breaches. Incredible! Most grateful!

Way fun!! - We did the late swim at 8:30 it was pretty chilli in the water but we saw so many manta! It was a cool experience. My husband and I took our four boys ages 14 down to 6. I wouldn’t recommend it for that young unless your kids is tough! It was amazing!

Wow! - Well worth it. If you're prone to sea sickness, sit in the back of the boat, as the ride is a little bumpy. And bring a towel!

Outstanding Experience - ABSOLUTELY AMAZING experience!! The water was definitely chilly (can’t control nature), so I’d highly recommend bringing a towel. The crew was super friendly, very professional, knowledgeable, entertaining, and safe always! I cannot rant and rave enough about how wonderful our trip was! I would do this again in a heartbeat! My sister and I made lasting memories, laughed harder than we have in ages, and of course got to enjoy the majestic mantas!!

Incredible experience, a must for the sea faring adventurer - Having been a scuba diver for over 2 decades, I was absolutely blown away by these manta rays. I had only ever seen these majestic creatures in the open water, and they were just passing by momentarily. Swimming with these mantas at night with the lights was a totally different experience. In roughly 30 minutes in the water, we had what seemed like dozens of Mantas basically touching us as they swam by. I didn’t realize that these mantas are the only ones in the world that behave and feed this way and it was truly spectacular. Mantas and gentle giants, if you go with children, make sure to explain that their throats are only the size of a dime! You literally wont see this anywhere else. 10/10

Fascinating and thrilling... - Fascinating and thrilling to see the manta rays! Even if you don't normally get sea sick, you may want to be prepared with a scopolamine patch or other ways to quell the symptoms; we went out in some significant swells and travelled 30 minutes each direction to and from the site plus the time in the water.
