We had 12 manta rays below us and it was truly incredible! As we boarded the boat we saw a small pod of dolphins. What a bonus!! Buddy is a marine life whisperer!!

The Captain (Bryce?) and crew were funny and engaging. Very helpful to all passengers. While they had no control of the weather, we had a beautiful calm night and saw 5 or 6 different manta rays which would return repeatedly to feed at our station and get quite close. Just an outstanding experience all around!

Aloha, yes captain Bryce and crew . So glad to hear you all fully enjoyed the manta rays! And the glow of the Mauna Loa volcano eruption has been awesome to see as well ! Thank you for the review 😊

We went on the manta scuba trip the day after Mauna Loa started erupting, beautiful nighttime view from the water! Captain Trevor was hilarious and a great captain. Our guide Diego was knowledgeable about the manta rays and other local sea life. We had a couple of non-swimmers with our group who were offered life jackets and Diego helped them out in the water. They went above and beyond to make sure we all had a wonderful experience!
