Awesome experience. There were so many manta rays and they swam so close they almost touched you. My son took his go pro and got some really cool footage.

Thank you for joining us. That's awesome to hear that your son was able to capture the mantas in action. Feel free to tag us or share any clips or images he may have gotten. We love sharing with others what we do. Hope to see you again.

We were last group for the night. The guy checking us in was awesome. The guy in the water helping us was awesome-very laid back. Captain not so much.... I ended up getting motion sickness and had to go back to the boat. Iā€™m on the ladder dry heaving and the captain says...ā€ DO NOT HURL IN MY BOAT, if you have to throw up , do it in the water.ā€ He never helped me up the ladder or even asked me once how I was doing. He just said, ā€œIf you guys are ready to go, then letā€™s just head back.ā€ He definitely wanted to end it and get back to shore . Not impressed. Save your money. Our total time on the water ... maybe :25 min max. Zero patience for tourists ...FYI

You came back to the boat after 25 minutes because you were not feeling well? And the captain asked if you were ready to go? I imagine the captain was thinking the best thing he could do for someone who was feeling motion sick, would be to get them back to shore. My apologies if you feel you were not tended to as you felt you deserved. Although, I assure you if you contacted our company directly, about your dissatisfaction, we would have done everything in our power to make it right. Aloha.
