Our dive guide was on top of it and was able to help individuals that were struggling while still managing the entire group. Their ability to handle a group of strangers with varying levels of dive experience at night on swells absolutely blew me away. When it came to the actual dive, this crew really stood out to me. Their in depth dive planning always made me feel secure as it was my first night dive. Their schedule, tour, and info on the mantas was very helpful. On the trip the entire crew was incredibly friendly and professional. I changed from snorkel to dive and it was incredibly simple and they were so responsive over email. This company was professional and helpful from scheduling to completion. Hopefully we won't have to wait 18 years this time!!!Īlso, I think it is important to mention that we did many excursions while we were in Hawaii (zip lining, day snorkel, luau, volcano tour, and dolphin experience) the price of this manta ray experience was the best value of the entire week! Can't recommend this highly enough!!! We would absolutely go a third time if we make it back to Hawaii and would use the same company again. We saw several manta rays and they were SO CLOSE to us. Her depth of knowledge of the ocean life and manta rays was solid and she could answer any question thrown at her. She really made sure all were having a good time. Kelly was our conservation guide and she even noticed my 13 year old was struggling with his mask during the snorkel and swam over and helped him adjust it before I even noticed. My husband had injured his arm two days before and the crew was incredibly accommodating to make sure he could snorkel and was doing ok throughout our time. It was also nice that we didn't have to listen to all the instructions for the scuba divers if you are only snorkeling. (The snorkel/scuba combo boat is a larger, more traditional dive boat). It is a jet boat which was a very fun experience and felt a little more exciting in my opinion as you are closer to the water. Last time we had a combo boat (scuba and snorkelers). We did this same experience with the same company 18 years ago and again had an incredible experience, this time bringing our teenage kids along. We did the night snorkel to see the Manta Rays in mid June 2021. Thanks again to the crew Jeff, Mark, Brooks and Captain Dave. It was truly an amazing experience and would recommend to anyone. Jeff made this dive very comfortable for us in the water by setting rocks around us to keep us from moving too much and set lights up right around our group for a full blown Manta Theatrical Experience. First of all the crew got us down to the bottom before any other dive companies which proved to be massively worth it because the mantas were down there right after we set up the lights. Our dive master Jeff was brilliant, cant say I have had a better dive master. Captain Dave was excellent providing a safe and comfortable environment making everyone feel relaxed before our night dive. Brooks was funny and gave us a tip about a local beach that we ended up going to and had an amazing time. We had a chance to talk with each of the crew members. We were taken on a short ride to the manta dive sight and briefed thoroughly about what we might see and safety precautions. My experience with my wife and father was fantastic.
