We had a great experience snorkeling with the manta rays. Everyone on the crew was friendly, helpful and professional. They made sure we always felt safe and comfortable. Also great that they only take 6-8 people max so you can actually move around and see the rays without being tied to 20+ other people like we saw on nearby boats. Great experience. Thanks Alisha, Eli and Captain Sam!

This experience was ABSOLUTELY amazing. If I could recommend any excursion on the Big Island, this is it. The staff was incredibly kind, even at 11 PM (the second to last group of the night). The boat ride was not long at all and I felt like we spent a ton of time in the water, but wanted to stay longer! The guide who stayed with us while snorkeling was incredibly knowledge and fun. Not only did I learn about the manta rays, I enjoyed the fact that our guide knew about each manta ray that was seen that night! I was in AWE of the manta rays barrel rolling right underneath me (no joke). We had 8 manta rays (at minimum) swimming underneath us. Towards the end of our time in the water, all of the manta rays showed up at the same time. When the guide on the boat mentioned that our time was almost done and we should start swimming to the boat, the guide in the water asked if we could stay a few minutes longer (which was allowed and appreciated). This company actually cared about our experience and the animals in the water. We loved it and hope to go again to see if we can see one of the manta rays jump out of the water!

I was so scared to try this since I'm not a very good swimmer and I'm scared of what is in the ocean...but I had such an amazing time. We got to see mantas on the 7pm tour. Def. Recommend.
