Splash into Hawaii's warm waters and snorkel alongside gentle giants with this unforgettable manta ray experience!
Known for its warm waters, calm currents, and abundant plankton, the west coast of Big Island attracts beautiful manta rays all year long. During this incredible experience, you’ll swim alongside these gentle giants.
