It was amazing! 最高でした！

Reviewed by: 米軍ドライバー

This is a tour that starts at sunset. The sunset is incredibly beautiful!

We were firmly reminded not to touch the manta rays, and after receiving some additional explanations, we dove into the sea. For the first few minutes, we couldn't see anything, and I thought maybe today would be a bust, but suddenly one appeared right in front of me. They circled around multiple times, and not just once, but several times, two of them came in a line. Although we were told not to touch them, my husband ended up getting touched by a manta ray, and we were both so excited. Our Japanese guide, Tamae, was very kind and helpful.

Since we were in the water for a long time, our bodies got cold. Renting a wetsuit was a good decision, but we didn't take it off when we returned to the boat, and we ended up freezing. It would have been better to take off the suit and wrap ourselves in towels once we got out. The hot chocolate they handed out was soothing for our chilled bodies.

I thought we would have to pay for the photos the guide was taking, but to my pleasant surprise, they sent the data directly to our phones right away.

If you rent a car, the meeting location is easy to find, so you won't have any trouble. Above all, the experience made the tour price feel very reasonable. If you come to the Big Island, you should definitely try this!

サンセットから始まるツアーです。夕日はすごい綺麗です！
マンタには絶対触れない‼️事を念を押され、その他説明を受けて海へダイブ、最初の数分は見られなくて、今日はハズレなのかなぁ〜なんて思ったらいきなり目の前に現れる。何回も旋回して目の前にも現れてくれるし、一回だけじゃなく何回も来てくれて2匹が列組んで来たり絶対に触れてはいけないと言われましたが、主人の身体にマンタの方から触れて大興奮です。日本人ガイドのタマエさんがとても親切で助かりました。
海に入っている時間が長いので身体が冷えます。ウェットスーツをレンタルして良かったけど、船に戻っても脱がなかった私達は冷え切ってしまいました。上がったらスーツは脱いでタオルにくるまっていれば良かったです。冷えた身体に配られたホットチョコはしみました。
ガイドさんが撮影していたから有料で買わされるんだろうなぁ〜と思ってましたが、データを携帯にすぐに送ってくれて、嬉しい驚きでした。
レンタカー借りていれば現地集合も場所もわかりやすいので困りません。
何よりツアー代金を安価に思わせる内容だったです。是非ハワイ島に来たら体験して下さい‼️

On the way to the manta snorkeling point, while riding the boat and enjoying the beautiful sunset, we were able to see two whales and many sharks. I heard that sharks can only be seen about twice a year.

During snorkeling, the large mantas came so close that it felt like they were almost going to bump into us, which was very impressive!

The staff were all very kind, and having a Japanese guide on board made us feel secure. After the tour, they even sent us the videos taken with the GoPro for free. I highly recommend this tour!

I participated in an English-only tour because the Japanese-speaking reservations were fully booked. The experience itself was impressive, as there are many similar tours in the area, and manta rays regularly approached us. The staff was also very accommodating. However, the time spent floating in the sea was quite long, and it can be tough if you don't have the stamina to hold onto the float. My wife had to retire midway. There were no unnecessary services, so it was relatively inexpensive, and it might be a good option for those looking for this kind of experience.

日本語対応の予約がいっぱいだっだので、英語オンリーのツアーに参加しました。
体験自体は周辺にたくさんの同じようなツアーがあるため、マンタが定期的に近づいてきますので迫力がありました。スタッフも対応が良かったです。
ただ、結構海に浮かんでいる時間が長いのと、浮き輪に捕まっている体力が無いと厳しいです。嫁さんは途中でリタイヤしました。
余計なサービスもないので比較的安価でしたし、このような内容を希望する人はいいかもしれません。

I was surprised to see manta rays so close. I saw several of them, and their graceful movements as they surfaced and spun around to eat were beautiful and magical. It felt like I was in a dream world, and I could have watched them forever.

The encounter rate with manta rays seems to vary by day, so I was lucky. This is my best memory from the Big Island.

I was comfortable since I was used to swimming and snorkeling, but for those who aren't confident in their stamina, it might be challenging after about 30 minutes.

Kona Manta Ray Snorkel & Night Dive Tour at Keauhou Bay - Sea Paradise

Six Amazing Mantas and Rolling Waves

Reviewed by: Jackie

Night snorkeling with the manta rays was incredible! We had a wonderful show from six different rays the entire time we were in the water. The guides were all very friendly and helpful. They assist with wetsuits before you board, then assist with masks onboard, and assist with floating noodles and less-experienced swimmers while in the water.

A word of warning - the water (and subsequently, the boat) were rolling intensely once we left the dock. And once you leave the dock, there is nowhere to go to get away from the rolling. Several individuals succumb to seasickness on our cruise. Not sure if maybe the ocean was just rough on our night, or if this amount of rocking is normal. Either way, I would advise caution if you are sensitive to motion sickness or vertigo.

A world I've never seen before✨ 見たことのない世界✨

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

Mantas right in front of me!

Not just one, but two mantas approaching from both sides, gracefully rotating and swimming just below the board I was holding without colliding! When I looked down, I saw a third, fourth... and when I glanced around, there were seven swimming elegantly!!! And one by one, they opened their mouths wide and came towards us!

I was so moved to see such graceful creatures living in the ocean! I’m really, really glad I participated.

This spot is said to be one of the best places in the world to encounter mantas. That day, there were quite a few mantas, and we were also lucky enough to see dolphins on the way there!

On the return boat, we were served warm drinks. I had mint tea, which was refreshing. I also took a sip of my husband’s hot cocoa, and the sweetness was comforting.

Moana's bright, kind, and humorous talk was enjoyable. I learned a lot about not just mantas, but also the shop and Mauna Kea. I also appreciated the gentle smile of Brian, who always looked out for us.

By the way, regarding the wetsuit, I felt a slight pressure around my stomach, so I opted for one size larger, thinking it might cause seasickness. However, I would recommend getting a size that fits snugly if possible. Once in the water, seawater would enter and exit through the gaps in the suit, and I felt colder than my family who accompanied me. On the boat, I didn’t wear the suit on my upper body, and I was probably so engrossed in the surroundings that I didn’t mind any pressure while underwater! (Later, I learned that with a snug wetsuit, the water that first enters the gap warms up to body temperature, maintaining insulation.)

For those snorkeling for the first time, it’s a good idea to learn how to use the equipment before entering the water. I got too caught up and ended up swallowing seawater. It can be stressful in the dark ocean for beginners. (I think they asked if I was experienced at the beginning.)

After the tour, my daughter and I changed in the car we drove to the site. The parking lot wasn’t too bright, and we covered the windows with our family towels and a spare towel, so we managed to change comfortably in the back seat.

Overall, it was a truly wonderful evening. My family of four was very satisfied, and we are extremely grateful.

(The posted photo is a cropped video taken by Moana from the position where she was pulling the board = the short side of the board. Our family of four held onto the long side of the board, two on each side. I apologize for the automatic cropping when uploading the photo, which didn’t turn out well.)

マンタが目の前に！

1枚だけでなく、左右から互いに近づいてくる2枚のマンタが、私の目の前でぶつかることなく、互いに体をそらして回転し、掴まっているボードにお腹スレスレで泳いで去っていく‼︎視線を下に向けると、3枚目、4枚目…見渡すと7枚は優雅に泳いでいました!!!そして順々に口を大きく開けてこちらに来るではないですか！

海の中をこんなにも優雅に泳いで暮らしている生き物がいるなんて！見たことのない光景に感動しました。参加できて本当に本当に良かったです。

ここのスポットは世界でも有数の、マンタに会える確率が高い場所だそうです。この日はマンタも多めだったのと、往路でイルカにも出会え、とってもラッキーでした♫

帰りのボートでは温かい飲み物を頂きました。私はミントの香りのお茶を頂きスッキリ。夫が飲んでいたホットココアも一口もらいましたが、甘さが体に染み渡ってほっとしました。

モアナさんの明るくて優しくて冗談の入り混じったトークも楽しかったです。マンタに限らず、お店のこと、マウナ・ケアのことなど、色々教わりました。常に私たちのことを気にかけてくれる優しいBrianさんの笑顔にもほっとしました。

ところでウェットスーツですが、お腹辺りにすこーし圧迫感を感じたので、船酔いを引き起こしやすいかもと、1サイズ大きいものにしてもらいましたが、できるなら体にピッタリなサイズの方をおすすめします。水中に入るとスーツの隙間から海水が入っては出て行き、同行した家族が言うより、より寒さを感じましたので。ボート上では上半身はスーツも着ませんし、恐らく水中では圧迫感など気にならないほど周りに夢中になっていたことでしょう！(後で、体にピッタリのウエットスーツの場合、本来はスーツと体の隙間に最初に入った水が体温と同じになり、保温性を保つ、と知りました。)

それからシュノーケリングが初めての方は、海に入る前に使い方をよく教わるといいでしょう。夢中になりすぎて潜りすぎ、口の中に海水が入ることも私はありましたから。初めてだと、暗い海の中で焦りますよね。(最初に経験者かどうか聞かれた気もします。)

ツアー後の着替えは、娘と私は現地まで乗って行った車の中でしました。駐車場が明るすぎることもなく、持って行った家族のバスタオルと予備のバスタオルで車の窓を覆って、後部座席で問題なくできました。

ということで、本当に素敵な夜でした。家族4人とも大満足で、とってもとっても感謝しています。

(投稿した写真は、モアナさんがボードを引っ張る位置＝ボードの短辺、から撮ってくださった動画を切り取ったものです。私たち家族4人はボードの長辺にそれぞれ2名ずつ掴まって眺めさせてもらいました。アップロードする際に写真が自動で切り取られてしまい、うまく載せられずごめんなさい)

Reviewed by: セッキー

Before departure, I put on a wetsuit that fit my body. They also lend out snorkeling gear, so all you need is a swimsuit and a towel.

While enjoying a wonderful sunset and engaging conversations, we headed to the manta ray spot. There were other boats gathered there, but the number of mantas was beyond my imagination, coming so close that it felt like they were about to bump into us, spinning around during their plankton feeding time. It was truly a moving experience.

The illuminated board had handles, and the guide pulled it to the spot, so there was no need to swim, making it suitable for those who aren't confident in their swimming abilities. Moana, our Japanese guide, kept us entertained with her lively talk. The captain spoke English, but his thoughtfulness made for a reassuring boat trip.

The encounter rate with mantas is over 90%, so the satisfaction level is very high. I highly recommend it!

I was able to see many manta rays up close. 間近でたくさんのマンタを見ることができました

Reviewed by: えぬ

Mantas can be seen in other countries as well, but the encounter rate on the Big Island of Hawaii is overwhelmingly high, so I definitely recommend experiencing it. During the session I participated in, several large mantas swam right in front of me, providing a truly valuable experience. The Japanese-speaking guide was very attentive, making it a reassuring tour.

For those who will be participating:
- The boat will speed towards the destination for a while, and it can be quite bumpy. If you're worried about seasickness, it's recommended to take motion sickness medication before joining.
- It gets chilly after coming out of the water. Bringing a large towel can be useful as it can also serve as a wrap.
- Since it's a popular tour, seats can fill up quickly, so it's advisable to keep your belongings to a minimum (if you don't want to place them on the floor). A waterproof bag is recommended as a lot of seawater comes into the boat.
- There is only one Japanese-speaking guide, and of course, they won't be able to provide individual attention to everyone. Especially for beginners in snorkeling, it's safer to familiarize yourself with how to wear the snorkel, how to fit it, how to put on a wetsuit, and how to enter the water beforehand.

マンタは他の国でも見られるそうですが、ハワイ島での遭遇率は圧倒的に高いそうなので、ぜひ体験することをお勧めします。私が参加した回も、大きなマンタが何匹も目の前でくるくると回ってくれて、とても貴重な体験をすることができました。
日本語対応ガイドさんもきめ細やかに対応してくださって、安心できるツアーでした。

これから参加する方に向けて
・爆速のボートをしばらく走らせて目的地に向かいます。かなり揺れます。船酔いが心配な方は酔い止めを服用してから参加するのがおすすめです。
・海から出た後は冷えます。大きなタオルを持参すると羽織にもなるので良いと思います。
・人気なツアーで席が埋まることも多いそうなので、荷物は最小限がおすすめです(床に置きたくなければ)。海水が船内にかなり入ってくるので、防水対応の袋に入れると安心と思います。
・日本語ガイドさんは一名で、もちろん自分たちだけにつきっきりでケアしてくれるわけではありません。特にシュノーケリング初心者の方はシュノーケルの装着方法や合わせ方、ウェットスーツの着方や海への入り方等々、事前に知識を入れられるものは入れてから望んだ方が安心です。

Reviewed by: 匿名希望

I was worried about the high prices due to the weak yen, but I chose this plan because it has Japanese staff and allows participation for elderly people as well. I confirmed the days when Japanese staff would be on board in advance on the official Manta University website before making my reservation. The day before, about 20 mantas showed up, but on the day of our participation, there were only 3 or 4. However, the sight of them opening their mouths wide and doing flips up close was a wonderful experience that you can't have in other regions. The Japanese staff provided excellent support, and I was grateful that they shared the manta images taken with the GoPro. However, it seems that participating as an observer didn't have much meaning, so it might be fine to wait at the hotel instead (I'm not sure if waiting at the store is possible, but I wouldn't recommend it since it would be unattended). We used Uber for the round trip, but on the return, we waited about 20 minutes in the darkness, with only the faint light from the store reaching us. If you can tolerate that, there were no problems at all. Depending on the location of the hotel, plans with transportation can be quite expensive. By the way, we were the only ones using Uber.

円安で高いため悩みましたが、小学校低学年の子供と参加するため、日本人スタッフがいる点、また，高齢者も居るため、見学参加できる点でこのプランを選びました。日本人スタッフが乗船する曜日は予めマンタ大学の公式サイトで確認してから申し込みました。前日は20枚ほどのマンタがきてくれたそうですが、参加日は3、4枚でした。が、近くで大きく口を開けてクルクル宙返りをくりかえす様子は、他の地域では体験できない素晴らしい時間でした。日本人スタッフが甲斐甲斐しくサポートをしてくださったし、GOproで撮ったマンタの画像を共有してくださり、有り難かったです。ただし、見学参加はあまり意味がなかったようですので、ホテル待機でも良さそうです（店舗での待機が可能かはわかりませんが、無人になるのでオススメしません）。往復ウーバータクシーにしましたが、復路は、店舗の灯りがほのかに届くだけの暗闇で20分ほど配車を待ちました。それを許容できるのであれば、全く問題はなかったです。ホテルの場所によっては送迎付きプランはかなり高くつくので。ちなみにウーバー利用は私たちだけでした。

I saw a manta ray swimming right in front of me. 目の前をマンタが泳ぐのが見えた。

Reviewed by: RygerSeven

At 6:15 PM, we gathered at the harbor. The only restroom available is a nearby public toilet, which is not very clean. We boarded the boat and headed to a nearby point. There will be a briefing on the boat, but I think it will be manageable even if you don't understand English. It takes about fifteen minutes to reach the point. They provide masks and snorkels, but they are not prescription, so I recommend that those with poor eyesight bring their own masks. We descend into the sea from the back of the boat. Holding a buoy about a meter long, we swim to a metal bar fixed on the surface. There, we place the buoy on the tops of our feet and hold onto the metal bar to float parallel to the water's surface. Looking down, you can see the light shining downwards. After a while, a manta ray swims up towards the surface. It feels like it's coming right at you, which is quite impressive. However, some people might feel scared as the manta approaches in the dark. Small children might be frightened. We maintain this position for about an hour. I felt that twenty minutes was enough for me at first. The remaining forty minutes felt quite long. After floating on the surface for about an hour, we returned to the boat, used the restroom on board, and had a drink before disembarking. I think we disembarked just after 8 PM. It takes about an hour to return to Waikoloa from there, so we would get back to Waikoloa before 10 PM, and I think the driver will be quite tired. Still, I was satisfied with the impressive manta rays.

夕方六時十五分。ハーバーに集合。トイレは近くの公衆トイレのみ。きれいではない。乗船して近くのポイントに行く。船の中でブリーフィングをするが、英語が分からなくても何とかなると思う。十五分ほどの移動でポイントにつく。マスクとシュノーケルは貸してくれるが、度付きではないので、視力が悪い人は自分のマスクを用意することをお勧めする。船の後部から海に降りる。一メートルほどの長さの浮き具をもって水上に固定してある金属製のバーまで泳ぐ。そこで浮き具を足の甲において、両手は金属製のバーを持ち水面に平行になるように浮く。下を眺めるとライトが下方向に照らしているのが分かる。しばらくするとマンタが下から海面に向かって泳いでくる。こちらに向かってくるような感じがして迫力がある。ただひとによっては暗い中でマンタがやってくるので恐怖を感じるかもしれない。小さい子供だと怖がるかもしれない。この体制を一時間ほどする。私は最初の二十分で十分と感じた。残りの四十分は結構長く感じた。一時間ほど海面に浮いてから船に戻り、船の中でトイレを済ませて、飲み物を飲んでから下船した。下船したのは八時過ぎだとおもう。ここからワイコロアまで一時間ほどかかって帰るので、ワイコロアに戻るのは十時前になり、運転手は結構疲れると思う。それでも迫力のあるマンタには満足した。

I love dolphins and was thinking about them all the time, but I found out just before my trip to Hawaii that I could see manta rays, and I really wanted to see them! So, I made a reservation.
My father has difficulty seeing, and since it was at night, I was very worried. However, thanks to the person who corresponded with me via email beforehand and especially the support from Tamae on the day of the tour, my family, including my father, had an unforgettable experience that we will cherish forever.
From the moment I peered into the water, manta rays came to us in droves, and I was so excited! I was mesmerized by their graceful swimming. After the tour ended, our family couldn't stop talking about the manta rays.
I also can't forget the sunset we saw from the boat and the magical sky when I turned around while watching the manta rays.
There were many worries, but they provided solid support, so I hope those who are anxious will definitely consider joining.
I'm sure a wonderful experience awaits you!!!♡

The pickup was just on time! Ms. Tamae's explanations and guidance were clear and perfect. After watching the beautiful sunset from the boat, we entered the sea to start manta watching. We could see many mantas swimming, and when they began rolling right in front of us, it was incredibly moving. Even in July, it felt a bit cold underwater at night, so I think it's better to rent a wetsuit.

ピックアップもジャストタイム！
たまえさんの説明や誘導も分かりやすく完璧でした。
ボートから美しいサンセットを見たあと海に入りマンタウォッチング開始。
多数のマンタが泳ぐのが見え、その後目の前でローリングを始めると最高に感動しました。
7月でも夜は少し水中だと寒く感じたので、ウエットスーツは借りた方が良いと思います。

The crew was really nice, and we have such a great experience. I was scared at first, but swimming with the mantas was really cool. This is definitely a must do in your trip to Kona.
