The experience of a lifetime

What an amazing experience to swim with the manta rays. This adventure did not disappoint. We are thankful that we spent a few extra dollars to rent the GoPro camera. A big shout out to Captain Bryce and Kayden, they were professional and worked well with everyone of different experience levels.

Must do!!

Captain Aiden and crew Caiden and Tim made the experience awesome! We got lucky and saw 10 manta rays! Great experience on the boat ride and the crew was very familiar with the activity and made sure everyone was safe throughout. One of a kind experience to be up close with the mantra rays!

So worth it!

Guides Ula and Kayden were excellent ! I thought it would be cold as I’m a big wimp in the water but it was nice, got a little chilly at the end but I was too excited to care. They provided snacks,drinks and great music. The Manta Rays got so close so many times, I can’t believe they didn’t touch us!

So Worth It

This may have been our favorite thing to do while on the Big Island. The workers were all friendly and helped create a relaxed and fun environment. Seeing the manta rays up close while snorkeling was such a unique experience. The manta rays would often get just a few inches away from you, which was so cool seeing them that up close. We even saw 2 dolphins swim by while snorkeling, which was such a pleasant surprise on top of an already amazing experience

So many manta rays!

Ula and Kaden took great care of us. We started at 7pm and got back around 8:45. We saw so many manta rays! They set up a board with a light that we held onto and the rays came up right underneath us. There were about 2 dozen folks on our tour, and their were half a dozen other tours happening at the same time in that location. It didn't feel crowded though.

Magic

Exceptional for families! We had such a magical experience swimming with the manta rays. They were in the water from the moment the boat parked. Everyone in our group of 11 enjoyed the experience. Some of us are rebooking!!

Great experience! 10/10

The crew made it very enjoyable and they were really funny. (Shout out to Jordan for being a good sport when I kicked him while we were in the water)
