Manta Ray Snorkel or Dive

Sorbet-colored sunsets over the Hawaiian Pacific are a crowd favorite for locals and visitors alike, but below the turquoise blue waters of the Kona Coast live another spectacular sight. For 125 manta rays, this is home -- and for you, this is an experience you'll remember for a lifetime. Your adventure starts with a twilight cruise to the manta location where knowledgeable staff guide you through the upcoming encounter. With a water depth of 25 feet, you can choose to experience these gentle giants by snorkeling or as a certified scuba diver. Slip on your fins, dive underneath the surface, and you're met by a school of mantas illuminated by underwater lights. Wingtip to wingtip, they gracefully span over 16 feet with nothing that bites or stings, making this the largest and safest giant animal encounter in the world. Snap an underwater photo as they glide through the water feeding on buffets of plankton and remember this as one of the most magical moments for years to come.
