“Always an incredible, safe and fun time. Taylor and Alyssa are so easy to work with, knowledgable and fun. Our entire group was beyond happy with their experiences with them...on the day snorkel trip, offshore adventures and the night Manta Ray dive. HIGHLY recommend them for a fun ocean day - all ages.”

Lisa D.

“We named our trip “MantaFest” because of how many mantas we encountered. So beautiful, so serene. The captain and crew were great. Small boat of only 9 of us made the trip even better. We stopped for a whale and the sounds he/she was making. Great experience.”

Teresa H.

“This was a fun tour! Taylor and Sage were great captains and took care of the participants very well. They were super informed on all questions we asked about the manta rays and ocean. I loved seeing all the camaraderie between all the boat guys while we were swimming with other tours. I would definitely recommend.”

Madison S.

“Best place to go with out in Kona. we saw Manta Rays on our night snorkel, and on the deep ocean safari we saw Sperm Whales, Humpback Whales, and Beaked Whales! If you want to have an amazing trip, this is the place to go!”

Lindsey V.

“The crew was comforting and accommodating, and made sure we had the best time we could. It was an amazing experience, and an absolute MUST do while on the Big Island!”

Paije O.

“A great experience all around. Amazing captain and crew (Patrick), a relaxing fun journey, drinks/snacks provided, the fish were incredible. Wish we could've stayed longer snorkelling but overall, so worth doing. It's a great way to see more of the island and see some amazing ocean life.”

Anthea A.

“The best to do this with. Wow what a wonderful night. Crew is fun as always and we had the best experience. So many Mantas at night. Their day trips are also fantastic. They go above and beyond to ensure a great trip.”

Karen F.

“Taylor, Alyssa and Kiao were amazing. They were so knowledgeable about what we were seeing and as a bonus they took time to show whales and spinner dolphins on tour. This was an incredible tour, plus we saw a blacktip shark. Would highly recommend and would do it again.”
