It was an awesome night. Beautiful sunset sail to the location for snorkeling. Very professional and courteous staff, and great interaction - COVID distancing and all. The staff knew exactly where to take us to see the Manta Rays, and boy did we see them ... 3-4 at a time coming up to feed at the board we were all hanging on to!!

Mahalo for visiting the Big Island and for including Kona Style as one of your activities! Our combination sunset and manta ray snorkel is an incredible trip and a great value. We start by taking a leisurely sail down the coast where you get to experience one of our legendary Kona sunsets at sea. Once we reach our snorkel destination, everyone gets geared up and joins our guide in the water for snorkeling with the majestic manta rays at night. There is nothing like seeing incredible animals up close and personal. Afterwards, join us back on board the boat for hot cocoa, hot tea and light snacks as you enjoy the lights of Kona town and stargazing as we make our way back to Kona town. Beautiful sunsets, majestic manta rays, a spacious 50' catamaran and our fun, professional and engaging crew - an incredible way to spend the evening in Kona. Mahalo for taking the time to leave us a review and we hope to see you again the next time you are on Hawai'i Island! Aloha - The Kona Style Ohana

Our family took a sunset snorkel with manta rays, including our young children. The team on land was professional and knowledgeable about the experience. We saw tons of rays that swam very, VERY close to us while we floated near the light board -one even brushed against me as it fed! The Captain and crew onboard were professional, enthusiastic, and very helpful, especially with our children. Drinks and snacks were available and very reasonable. Crew was sensitive to the pandemic and provided hand sanitizer and small number of patrons onboard with plenty of space to spread out. We LOVED that the catamaran had stairs that lowered into the water for our launch and return - we didn’t see any other boats at the snorkel site with that feature. I wish the land crew would not have discouraged the use of bringing our own floatation devices for the kids (life jackets or puddle jumpers), and thankfully Tanner was quick to help me and my younger ones feel more comfortable in the water by getting that on board. Overall, amazing experience with close Ray’s swimming all around below us and very friendly staff who made it a great experience!

Aloha Elizabeth. Mahalo for joining us and for taking the opportunity to leave such a detailed review. We are thrilled to hear that we were able to deliver such a great experience for you and your family. We are blessed with great team members that truly care about our guest's experience and will always go the extra mile to help all of our guests have a safe and fun adventure. Our "grand staircase" is a unique feature of our boat and it really does make the water entry/exit extremely easy! Thank you for choosing Kona as your vacation destination and for including Kona Style during your stay. We truly appreciate your patronage and look forward to seeing you again the next time you are on the Big Island! Mahalo - The Kona Style Ohana

Swimming with the manta rays was a breathtaking and incredible experience. Captain Tanner, Demi, and Sarah were the perfect crew and made our night the most memorable they could. This was a once in a lifetime snorkel and I recommend it to anyone in Kona!
