Sunset Manta Snorkel

Discover the Majestic Manta Rays of the Kona Coast.  

Enjoy one of the most beautiful sunsets in the world, while on your way to swim with these Magnificent Gentle Giants.

Swim with Manta Rays!

 • Enjoy a breathtaking, Hawaiian sunset aboard the Hokulani, Sea Paradise’s spacious 45-foot trimaran, as you sail to the World Famous Manta Ray Village off the Kona Coast. Going on a manta ray night snorkel in Hawaii is an otherworldly and unforgettable experience. The Travel Channel says, “It’s one of the top ten things to do in your lifetime.”

 

Description:

 • Swimming with manta rays is often the highlight of visitors’ trips to Hawaii. Sea Paradise is an original manta ray tour expert in Hawaii, helping its guests get up close and personal with these majestic creatures since 1985.

In the Water:

 • Once you reach Manta Ray Village, the friendly crew will provide you with an informative briefing about manta rays.

 • For snorkeling guests, the crew will guide you onto our state-of-the-art “manta floatation device.” Guests of all ages and skill levels can hold onto this float that drifts above the manta rays. You will watch in awe as these majestic manta rays glide and loop, feeding on microscopic plankton attracted to the light sources attached to the float. To wrap up your amazing Hawaii snorkel tour, some light snacks and a warm cup of hot cocoa are provided for your sail home. Snorkel time is approximately 45 minutes.

 • Don’t want to snorkel? That’s okay too. For Ride-Along guests, you can watch the majestic manta rays from the comfort of the 45-foot trimaran

Scheduled:

 • Daily 

Included:

• Light “pupus” snacks, juice, water, soft drinks and hot cocoa.

*Adult beverages will NOT be available for purchase on the manta tours. BYOB not permitted.*

What to Bring:

 • Dress comfortably for your Hawaii snorkeling tour. Bring swimwear, towel, a cover-up, and a light jacket or sweater for after you’re out of the water.
