We just did this Friday night. The crew is absolutely awesome and the experience is amazing!! Its worth every penny to have that up close and personal experience!! If you have your own snorkeling gear then take it. They do not mind. If you can't swim, no worries. They have your back. If you have never snorkeled before no worries. Breath slow and naturally and listen to your guides in the water helping you along the way. They place a noodle at your feet. Hold onto the board, relax and enjoy the amazing show that the Mantas put on for you! You will not be disappointed what so ever!

I did it. I am a 68 year old woman who zipped up into a wet suit. jumped into 25 feet of water at night and swam with the mantas. I could NOT have done it if I wasn't supported by the fabulous staff. From our arrival, every step of the way is explained and your experience is curated by people who are very attune to mother nature and will enhance your experience safely. It is truly an amazing experience, once in a lifetime and it was just so fun. GO!

A mind blowing experience 😳 Amanda the Manta Ray was doing barrel rolls up against us as soon we got in the water. To be so close to such a majestic creature, in her habitat, it seemed other worldly. Water was a little choppy so maybe take a Dramamine beforehand. The Captain and crew were knowledgeable, attentive and skilled, and all the gear provided was in great condition. In hindsight I wish we had brought a GoPro with us for photos but then again just living in the moment was almost overwhelming so I’m not sure I could have done anything but stare in amazement anyhow. I’d go again in a heartbeat. Mahalo to everyone at SeaQuest and especially to Amanda Manta Ray 🌺
