"This was hands down the absolute highlight of our trip. We were blown away by the number of Manta Rays we saw. They came so incredibly close to us – it was an unforgettable, magical sight! The entire tour was perfectly organized from start to finish, and the crew did a fantastic job. If you’re on Big Island, don’t miss this. An absolute 10/10 experience!"

The boat and crew were outstanding. The manta rays are amazing. Only reason not a 5 is we weren’t allowed to use our full face masks. It would have been so much better. Will use a different company next time for that reason.

This was by far the highlight of our trip to the Big Island--and we saw a lot. I wasn't sure what to expect, but "amazing" isn't a strong enough word for what it was like to float in the ocean and have huge manta rays swim up against you. The captain and staff were really knowledgeable and passionate, and they made sure that everyone was comfortable. I appreciated having hot chocolate when I got out of the water. I also appreciated that we were given wetsuits; apparently some tours don't offer them, and I think it would have been very uncomfortable without one. Bring warm clothes--you will be very cold! It's hard to describe how cool this is, but Kona is the only place in the world you can do this and you should not miss it. Sea Paradise was great!

What a wonderful experience. The crew was fabulous and were very knowledgeable. The manta rays were so amazing. I would highly recommend this company for a experience of a lifetime.

Let me say upfront that the crew was fantastic and the manta rays were amazing. My reason for just a 3 rating is all 4 of us have been using full face masks for years. They never mentioned in their adds or emails they weren’t going to be allowed on their trip. Many friends of ours have used these masks with other companies and told us it is the BEST way to view these magnificent creatures. The standard snorkel mask was quite difficult for my wife and granddaughter. They had to cut their time in the water by at least half. I would have used a different company if I knew this before I spent over $500. Very disappointing.
