Great for young families - The crew was great at accommodating the needs of our young kids, helping them feel more secure with lifejackets and with bringing them to and from the boat. They had a blast!

Dream Come True! - There were so many Manta Rays! I was not expecting the number or the shear size of the the Manta Rays. It was breathtaking to just see them but to actually be inches from them was a dream.

Definitely Worth It - The crew of the boat were two, young guys, but they knew what they were doing. They were honest, and told us about Bristle worms in the area, so we went to a different area, and though there were still a couple of worms, the Manta's were out right away. They were huge and beautiful, and they swam right up against you. The guides even had a pair of prescription goggles they let me use. Note to future snorkelers....wear contacts if you can. It was a once in a lifetime experience, and they even threw in some jokes, a snack, water and some music. Even being solo, the group was fun, and the guides really kept it easy and fun. I'd do it again, even with the worms. Highly recommend.

Unforgettable - We knew we would love this experience, but we were extra pleased with the crew and the way they took care of everyone’s needs. If you can go on this adventure, you absolutely should.

Life changing experience - This was truly the best part of my 10 day trip on the Big Island. The experience with the manta rays was life changing. The guides were fun and pleasant. They got to the point with instructions, and let us enjoy from there. If anyone needed help, they were there. I noticed they were great with the children as well. Truly an overall incredible experience.
