Manta Ray Evening/Night Snorkel

Swimming with the manta rays is one of the greatest experiences to be had on the Big Island. Float above and watch as the graceful mantas swim up from below for the plankton rich water near the surface.

We are located in Keauhou Bay, adjacent to one of the best known manta areas in the Hawaiian islands commonly known as "Manta Ray Village". Being close to the manta grounds means less time traveling and more time in the water with the mantas.

We will provide you with everything you need to view the manta rays. The following is a list of what we provide and what you might consider bringing.

We Provide You Bring
Mask A Towel
Snorkel A Swimsuit
Wetsuit Dry clothing to change into after snorkeling
Flotation Devices A GoPro or some other type of waterproof recording devise

If you'd like more information about the mantas and the trip, look at the Manta section on our FAQ Page.


Start Times

We currently have two time frames:

  • The first time frame is generally just prior to sunset.
  • The second time frame is about an hour and half after the first time.

The time frames' start times vary with changes of the time when the sun sets. Trips are subject to availability, so be sure to book your trip early.

For the safety of all guests, our water guide/crew, and including the Manta Rays, all participants must be:

  • Capable of swimming without the assistance of a floatation device
  • Have some previous snorkel experience

Manta Guarantee Policy

Please appreciate that it is our foremost priority for you to view Manta Rays. These gentle giants of the sea are wild animals and on rare occasions they do not feel like participating or performing. On the rare occasion that no Manta Rays are sighted during your scheduled event, we invite you to rejoin us during your stay on Big Island, at no additional cost. Any second opportunity is based on availability and is non-transferable. No refunds will be given.
