Our family with 3 teenagers enjoyed every misure of this trip. The crew was knowledgeable and fun. I was expecting super cold waters but it was actually pretty warm, it gets cold toward the end of the 45 min time in the water tough. We saw more that 10 huge manta rays and one swam right under us, so close! Memorable experience! Highly recommended👍

Aloha! Thank you for bringing the whole family and trusting us with your safety and enjoyment! It's amazing how the comfort level in the water varies so much between each guest. We're glad you were warm for most of it, but it can feel colder as the adrenaline slows down and we get physically tired towards the end. This is why we're confident that 45 minutes is the perfect time in the water for most guests! We hope the hot drinks helped! Mahalo for joining us - The KONASTYLE Ohana.

My daughter and I did this one night on our vacation (leaving the other half of our family behind as they are prone to seasickness). Gorgeous boat and great staff who made us feel safe. We got nervous when we weren’t seeing any manta rays during our first 15 minutes in the water. But when they started to appear - WOAH! It is exactly like YouTube videos show. They were inches from our faces multiple times. Do plan that it’s cold getting out of the water at night. My slender daughter was shivering.

Aloha! Thank you for taking the time to leave us a great review! We also get a little anxious when the manta rays don't come out to visit quickly! We want the best experience possible for our guests on every single trip! Thanks for hanging tight with us! You also gave a good tip about staying warm! Mahalo for choosing to snorkel with us! - The KONASTYLE Ohana. Future guests: if you tend to get cold, we encourage you to wear a rash guard or long sleeve shirt under the provided wet suit top to keep a bit warmer, then have a jacket + towel waiting for you on board! We have hot drinks to help you warm up as well!

Great experience! Staff was fantastic. Water was colder than I expected, but you forget all about shivering once the mantas arrive. 😁 Terrific music and party vibe on the boat. Hot tea and cocoa afterwards are a nice touch. I recommend the sunset time for added delight.
