The Night Manta Ray Experience was incredible! Almost as soon as we got to the boards, the first Manta arrived, and the size and beauty almost felt unreal. We had a wonderful time watching 6 or 7 mantas. The crew knows their names and so much about these beautiful animals. It is truly one of the most incredible things I've ever done! When anyone asks about our trip, this tour is the top experience we share. Some in our party did get a little seasick, so we were very grateful for the short boat ride with this tour company - it's the perfect location. We were also grateful for the wetsuits so we didn't feel cold in the water. Welan (sp?) was wonderful & personable and took great care of us and also shared a lot of great information about the area and suggestions of places to go. The hot chocolate and cookies were a great touch at the end. One tip, while watching the mantas, the employees share great information, so you may want to keep your ears out of the water. I learned this part-way through and wish I could have heard all they shared.

Observing manta rays at night was one of the best activities I made in Hawaii. Observing those gigantic, elegant creatures was like a dream and poetry at once 😀 We went there with my family including nephews aged 8 and 10. They all enjoyed, although it was a lot to process for them. For the rest, super professional tea. That accompanied us and made sure we would be respectful of nature while being there. They were super nice an dhot chocolate + cookies once back on shore was super appreciated. Must do if you come on Big Island!
