Hawaii Island & Ocean Tours did a fantastic job. I highly recommend this tour. Booking was easy, they communicated what was included, where to be and what to expect. We arrived and got outfitted and received our instructions. Once on the boat, we were out to the viewing spot within 5 minutes. Our captain was Sam and she was fantastic. Our diver was Ely and he was terrific - very knowledgeable about Manta Rays and helpful at explaining everything that was happening. We were in the water for about 30 minutes and saw 3 Manta Rays. They were beautiful. The system with the lighted/modified surfboard is brilliant - both for the safety/protection of the manta rays and for you to easily float for an extended period of time. In our group of 6, I'm the least comfortable in the water and I never felt uneasy or panicked with this setup. The Manta Rays are beautiful creatures and watching them feast on the plankton was an incredible experience.

Thank you. We're so please to hear that you enjoyed your tour out with us and got to experience Kona's one of a kind Mantas...up close and personal! Our team is very passionate about what they do while ensuring guests feel safe and comfortable in the water with these gentle giants. I'll be sure to pass the kudos on to Captain Sam and Guide Eli. They are both great humans and we are very lucky to have them. Mahalo for the high recommendation and we hope to see you again. Aloha.
