What to Expect

Join our Manta Ray Night Snorkel for an extraordinary underwater experience in Kona. Dive into the night waters of the Big Island, illuminated by underwater lights that draw both plankton and manta rays right beneath you. Our tour provides expert guidance to ensure a safe and thrilling encounter with these gentle giants, known for wingspans over 12 feet.

Safety and respect for marine life are our top priorities. Your guide will share insights into manta ray behaviors and the marine ecosystem, making your experience both enjoyable and educational. Join us to witness these majestic creatures in their natural habitat for a memorable night in Hawaii.

Includes

Mask & Snorkel
Shortie Wetsuit
Additional floatation to prevent legs from dangling - this is not a replacement for swimming ability.

Restrictions

  • For safety, swimming skills are required for all guests – this is a nighttime open ocean activity
  • Can you swim 50 yards without additional floatation?
  • Prior snorkeling experience is required and you must consider yourself an intermediate snorkeler
    Join us on a daytime charter to dial in those snorkeling skills
  • Non-swimmers are not permitted on this tour
  • Children (under 18) must be at least five years of age, demonstrate strong swimming ability, and be accompanied by an adult at all times
  • Everyone in the party must be able to converse in English for safety instructions, no exceptions
  • Everyone in the party must be able to listen and follow directions
  • Pregnant women are not permitted due to the adventurous nature of the boat ride – our vessel is not for everyone!
  • Those who experience recurring back or neck pain cannot participate in this tour
  • Those with any problems with their shoulders cannot join this tour. You are lying prone in the water with your arms outstretched for 30-40 minutes.
  • Those with recurring shoulder dislocation issues are not permitted to participate in this activity
  • There is no weight restriction, but guests must be able to physically and safely maneuver on and off the vessel without assistance. Not recommended for those over 300lbs. Snorkeling is a physically exerting activity, and we area 20-45 minute boat ride from medical care in the event of an emergency – you should be in good physical and mental health
  • Those with injuries that limit their mobility cannot participate in this tour
  • This can be a stress-inducing activity and is not recommended for those with heart conditions, high blood pressure, or those who have severe asthma.
  • We DO NOT RECOMMEND a snorkel trip (due to increased exertion) for at least two days after getting off the plane due to the risk of development of ROPE (Rapid Onset Pulmonary Edema)
  • We expect guests to read and understand the safety restrictions before booking this tour.

A life vest is not a replacement for swimming ability. If you require a life vest to be in the ocean this is not the activity for you and you will be turned away. Safety is our primary concern.

KNOW YOUR LIMITS - Everyone should review this before booking, as your current health and fitness condition affects your safety in the water.
