Kona is the only destination in the world where you can witness the singular sensation of manta rays feeding at night, and this exciting 1.5-hour tour gives you a front row seat. When you check in, you’ll be outfitted with wetsuits and snorkeling gear before boarding a customized vessel and taking a short boat ride to the mouth of Keauhou Bay, one of the Big Island’s most consistent manta ray viewing locations.

Dive into the warm waters and float above these graceful creatures that can grow as large as 16 feet across and weigh 1,000 pounds. Watch as they glide and feed, performing one of nature’s most mesmerizing nocturnal ballets.

After a 45-minute water show, you’ll climb back aboard the boat and head to shore. There you’ll warm up with hot chocolate and cookies before heading back to your hotel to dream about the amazing natural wonder you’ve just witnessed. Check a life-changing activity off your bucket list when you go Nighttime Snorkeling with Manta Rays!
