*Small groups. Experienced crew. Amazing manta ray encounters.

Led by Captain Kris Henry, who has years of experience on Kona's waters, this tour departs from Honokohau Harbor. We provide all snorkel gear, flotation devices, and complimentary wetsuits—never an extra charge.
Once at the manta viewing site, you'll hold onto a specially designed light board while powerful underwater lights attract plankton, drawing manta rays directly beneath you. Watch these gentle giants glide, swoop, and barrel roll just inches below the surface as they feed.

Kailua-Kona is considered one of the best places in the world to see manta rays, making this one of Hawaii's most memorable wildlife experiences. With wingspans reaching over 20 feet, these graceful creatures create an incredible up-close encounter you'll never forget.
