Really fantastic experience. We saw so many rays up close and also had a visit from a pod of dolphins! The team were all great - friendly, informative and really knowledgeable about the marine life we saw. We rented a GoPro there and caught some amazing footage. Thank you all for such a great memorable experience!

This was an unforgettable experience and a must do. Well organized and easy. Park along the dark street in front of the outrigger hotel. Don't park in the trailer parking. Short walk to truck at end. Greeted by friendly staff (Alisha) went through the instructions. She got us all dry wetsuits, I was worried that I would have to put on a wet one someone else used earlier that night. Then a short boat ride to the site. I think that is much better then some of the other companies that mention a 30 minute boat ride. Who wants that late at night, especially on the ride back when you are wet. I knew we would see the mantra rays up close, but I didn't know that close. They do these summersaults right under the board you hold onto, less then an inch away. We must have been lucky because we saw 6 mantra rays. Truly beautiful. My 12 year old son asked many questions and our guide (Dylan I think) in the water patiently answered each one. Don't miss this while you are in the island. Only wish I had booked it earlier so I could have gotten the $79 rate, I paid much more

Thank you for sharing. I'm pleased to hear that you enjoyed the tour and got in on some up close and personal manta ray action. They really are huge when swimming inches away from you. Mahalo for the kind words regarding Alisha and Dylan. They are awesome humans and we are lucky to have them as part of our staff. We appreciate your support and for taking the time to leave us a review. Hope to see you again. Aloha.

An amazing experience with the kids! Itā€™s well organized and if you get to see so many Mantas like we did, you will never forget it. Highly recommended.
