I give this a 5 star rating because a higher number is not available. The entire experience was way beyond my husband's and my expectations. Staff and crew were friendly and well organized. Wet suits were provided and hot drinks with snacks offered. The viewing of the manta rays was amazing. Many huge rays gracefully twisted and turned below us and often came so close to our hands holding onto a rope that they brushed against us. I never imagined such a wonder. I recommend this highly.

Guides were nice nd liked that it was a small group. I just felt sick from the choppy water and gets cold at night, even with a wetsuit. There were also so many groups out in the small space making it difficult to find a spot to chill.

Thank you for joining us. We understand how popular this activity is especially when the northern manta site is going thru a dry spell, most companies will bring their guest's south. We try and work with other operators to give ALL guest's a chance to see these amazing gentle giants. Mahalo for the review and aloha.
