View all images

Embark on an epic journey from along the Kona coastline as you witness a breathtaking Hawaiian sunset and then snorkel with the famous manta rays of Keauhou Bay. With a late afternoon departure, you will have ample time to snack on a variety of fresh tropical fruit and sushi while the sun dips below the horizon. Once evening falls, head into the water illuminated by underwater dive lights and have a thrill of a lifetime as giant manta rays gracefully swoop and glide just a few inches from you. With a maximum group size of six people, this is sure to be an intimate and unforgettable experience.
