What an awesome experience! We probably saw atleast 5-6 rays, not sure if was same ones going around or different ones coming over but it was amazing, I didn't expect them to be so big! And they come right by your face and brush against you. Once in a lifetime opportunity, I wouldn't have minded doing it again! Liked that boat ride out was very short too. Knowledgeable friendly crew. Snacks provided afterwards. They offered wetsuits but we went without, (as they said if we had snorkeled that day it'd be about the same temp), prob should've as I was a bit cold. This was one of highlights of our trip, highly recommend.

Thanks for snorkeling with us Nunza. It was a pleasure getting to share this awesome experience with you. We're happy to hear that you enjoyed the tour and were able to come to face to face with Kona's big, beautiful, amazing mantas. Mahalo for the high recommendation and we hope to see you again. Aloha.

Terrific experience. The tour was not crowded with only 6 people, and the crew was friendly and helpful. At first, there was only one Manta, but five gathered after about 10 min. It was even more wonderful when I was touched by a Manta when it was doing a barrel rolling near surface.
