Manta Ray Snorkeling by Night in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii

he only location within the United States! Guests will join us on a brief canoe ride out to the manta ray snorkel site located near the mouth of Keauhou Bay in Kona, Hawai'i. Our safety brief includes instructions on how to use the provided snorkel gear, fitting for a wetsuit top to keep warm in the water, and guidance for the experience. Guests will then be guided into the water by our professional crew and positioned along the perimeter of our Light Board. Float effortlessly with the help of floatation devices while you watch for manta rays. We will position the board for optimal viewing. The powerful lights attract photosynthetic plankton toward the group, and the Manta rays come in search of the plankton! Please note that for the safety of all guests and team members, all guests getting into the water must know how to swim and climb a short ladder into the canoe unassisted. If a guest is unable to swim, they will be immediately guided back to the boat. Refunds will not be offered for tours that are operated. Please read this listing thoroughly to ensure this experience is a good fit for you.
