Overview
ItineraryGuests will join us on a short canoe ride out to the manta ray snorkel site located near the mouth of Keauhou Bay. We then provide a safety brief, instructions on how to use snorkel gear and fins, and fit the group with wet suit tops to keep you warm in the water. Guests will then be guided into the water by our crew members and positioned along the perimeter of our Light Board. While guests watch for manta rays, we keep the Light Board in position. Guests simply hang on to the handles and effortlessly float, face down, with the help of floatation devices. The powerful lights attract photosynthetic plankton towards the group, and the Manta rays come in search of the plankton! We will reposition the group as needed for optimal manta ray viewing!Please note that for the safety of all guests and team members, all guests getting into the water MUST KNOW HOW TO SWIM WITHOUT THE ASSISTANCE OF A FLOTATION DEVICE. If a guest is unable to swim, they will be immediately directed back to the boat and their purchase will not be refunded.

Traveler Reviews

Absolutely incredible! We didn't know what we were in for, but we sure were not disappointed. The manta rays come right up to you!

The snorkeling experience was amazing never thought I’d see rays so close. The crew is very knowledgeable and helpful throughout the whole trip… breath taking!

We had a great time snorkeling with the Manta Rays!! We felt totally safe with the crew Chayden and Tim. The Manta Rays came within inches of us. It was incredible.

Ty was a great guide and very informative and very patient with this 69 year old man. Captain Tim was a man of fewer words but got the job done. The experience was amazing!!

The experience itself was amazing, and I was happy that I could do it pregnant. The tour though was quicker than stated in the advertisement . We should be 35 minutes in the water but I can definitely say we stayed at least 10 minutes less than that.
