We had an amazing time on our late night snorkel trip (9pm). We have kids and we’re worried the late night trip might be intimidating, but it was amazing. Our youngest did the best of everyone. Tanner was a great Captain. He was very clear with Instructions and safety measures. Dan was so kind and helpful. He made sure everyone felt safe and helped with all of the small details in the water. Demi was great too. Very friendly, kind and helpful. The boat is beautiful, extremely well stocked and clean. This experience is not scary at all. It’s magical. The water is well lit and they have plenty of gear to make you feel completely safe. We saw multiple mantas and the time passed very quickly. My only suggestion would be to pre-empt any seasickness with a little bit of Dramamine, or other medication and bring a warm waterproof jacket. Thanks for the experience of a lifetime! Our entire family loved it! ✨ 🌊

Hi Natalie. Mahalo for this excellent and detailed review! You make great recommendations - the ride back can be chili and it doesn't take much for a little seasickness to sour an otherwise amazing time. We're stoked to hear that your youngest tackled the experience and had a great time too! We will surely let our captain and crew know that they did a great job all around. It was our pleasure to have you with us! Aloha - The Kona Style Ohana.

This was the best experience of my life. Captain Tanner was great! He explained the process and set realistic expectation. Our resort had manta swimming but it definitely did not compare to going on the boat and swimming with the mantas! This is a MUST do adventure when on the big island!

Hello! There's lots to appreciate about this amazing review you've left us, but we really appreciate your mention of setting realistic expectations. We try to clearly communicate what aspects of the experience we can control and those that we cannot - especially when you're dealing with weather and wild animals. With that being said, we understand that our manta ray snorkel guests come for a show so we guarantee a sighting or we rebook you for free. Thank you very much for choosing to sail with us and for recommending us so highly to the community. We hope the rest of your visit was extraordinary! Mahalo - The Kona Style Ohana.

This was our first time and we thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We spotted around 6 manta rays that night. The waters were a bit choppy that made us a bit sea sick but other than that there were no other concerns. The staff were super friendly and helpful.

Aloha! We're glad to her you had a great time! A 6 manta showing is an amazing night! If you've never been then you'd never know, but some guests take a preventative motion sickness medication to help with rougher seas. Our crew truly empathizes with the guests that become seasick and they appreciated your patience and understanding! Mahalo for choosing to adventure with us - The Kona Style Ohana.
