We (3 adults) would definitely go with Sea Quest for a night mantra Ray experience again! We scheduled for 6:45, sun sets at 6:30-7pm. Sea quest is so efficient and organized. We were told it was their busiest night ever, 3 back-to-back trips, 6 full boats; but e did not for a moment feel the crazy of what they might have been feeling. Michelle and Kon… were our guides., They were so informative, kind, and helpful; relieving any intimidation one might have had (including a few children in our group). We saw a dozen manta rays, a really good night! A couple of them did belly-rolls for us.

This was an amazing experience! We (me, husband, kids 15, 17) were impressed from start to finish with the company from the wetsuits, boat ride, instructions, information, and hot chocolate at the end, it was fantastic. We were hoping to see just 1 or 2 manta rays and we saw 5! They were everywhere and we absolutely loved when they belly rolled underneath the board again and again. Highly recommend!

Five manta rays swimming and doing belly rolls beneath you in the water is such a thrilling time! Our hearts are filled with Aloha to hear you all enjoyed the Manta Rays as much as we do. Mahalo nui loa for your recommendation! We hope to see you again in the future.

This was one of the most unique experiences we have ever done! It was just awesome to see the Rays that up close and personal having their meals. The water was pretty rough that night but we felt save the entire time. Very unique once in a lifetime type thing. It’s a must do!
