Keauhou - Please ensure timely arrival for the commencement of your scheduled tour. A 40-minute period is designated for guest preparation prior to embarking on the boat.
A brief 4-minute boat journey will take you to the snorkeling site.
Snorkeling time ranges from 20 to 30 minutes.
Our skilled Captains, swim guides, and lifeguards are present at the viewing location, equipped with light boards, underwater dive lights, and dancing rays eagerly awaiting your arrival. All guides are well-informed, brimming with fascinating facts, and certified in lifeguard/CPR. A group size of 13 ensures your safety and provides additional personal attention if required.
You will float on the water’s surface, snorkeling, while holding onto our custom light board for up to 30 minutes. The light board attracts plankton, which in turn draws manta rays to swim nearby, allowing them to feed on the concentrated food illuminated below you.
Please note that prescription snorkel masks are not available.

What Sets the Manta Ray Night Snorkel Apart
Experience one of the rare opportunities worldwide to snorkel with manta rays at night, right in their natural environment.
Enjoy a personal and uncrowded adventure with a small group size, accommodating a maximum of 17 guests, unlike other tours that host 40–60 people.
Benefit from a swift 3–5 minute boat ride from the harbor to the manta site, unlike many other operators that require a 30-minute journey each way.
Utilize an industry-leading lighting system featuring over 150,000 lumens of blue dive lights, which attract more plankton and enhance manta activity.
Float comfortably on custom light boards as mantas glide just inches below you.
Take advantage of later tour times, which statistically have fewer boats and more manta sightings.
Enjoy the Manta Guarantee—if no manta rays are spotted, guests who book directly can rebook for free until they do, subject to availability.
Feel secure with a team that includes a licensed captain, certified lifeguard, and trained swim guide.
Operated by a local, family-owned business that prioritizes education, conservation, and the spirit of aloha.
