Everyone was so kind and so nice. Super informative and the manta ray did a nice cool show for us. We went at 11pm and it was so worth it.

Thank you. Sometimes it's nice to do a later tour when most of the operators have finished for the evening. (You get a more private and personal encounter.) Mahalo for the review and hope to see you again. Aloha.

This was a wonderful experience! The guides were friendly and helpful . We saw so many huge manta rays and even some bottle nosed dolphins. Would definitely recommend if you come to the Big Island!

I had no idea Manta Rays were so huge! Iā€™m a little freaked out by fish but this was incredible. The perfect amount of time in the water with them. Our group was only 6 people - I saw some groups that had way more and it took them forever to get situated. They get within centimeters of you but they turn so accurately and gracefully without touching you. Great guide Dylan. Great check-in guy Lihaou. And I didnā€™t catch the boat captainā€™s name but she was lovely too. Must do experience!

Surprise! Mantas are nowhere near the size of your average rays...they are massive but nimble. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your tour out with us and appreciated the smaller group size (It really does make a big difference.) I'll be sure to pass on the kind remarks to Dylan, Lihau and Captain Samantha. Mahalo for the review and hope to see you again. Aloha.
