Rencontre Manta Nocturne: Snorkel Magique Sous les Étoiles

Ce fut une excursion amusante, j'ai vu des raies Mantra et apprécié l'équipage. Je vous recommande d'ajouter à votre liste de seaux.

Je me suis rapproché de Mantas. Malheureusement, j'ai eu un petit mal de mer à la fin de la tournée, mais l'équipage a été utile.

Kona Style late night Manta Snorkeling was recommended by friends of ours who did it last year. This was an incredible experience! The captain made sure to give several safety talks as to location of safety equipment and how to act around the Manta Rays.....no petting as these are wild animals to be respected. The captain and crew are protective of the animals and made sure to convey that. Unfortunately, we had rough seas, and it was pretty choppy. When seas are rough you do have to hang on pretty tight, this is not snorkeling per se but holding onto a lighted floating board. There were a number of boats at the location and after about 30 mins after not seeing anything we linked up to other platforms and then the Manta Rays used the lighted boards like a buffet. We were so close that they brushed us a couple of times. Although you cannot touch them, they can touch you. They skimmed the top and did numerous barrel rolls while feeding on the plankton drawn in by the blue and white lights. We were in the water for 40+ min and the last 20 min was a Manta Ray show! Even though there was nothing the first 20-30 min the crew worked hard to reposition us to attract the Rays. While waiting for the rays to show up watching the zooplankton was memorizing with the larval fish and small comb jellies shimmering and glowing in the light, the water was alive! If you looked deeper, you could see small schools of fish also attracted and feeding on the plankton. They provide mask/snorkels, pool noodles and spring suit top (wet suit) and once done there is hot chocolate waiting for you. They have a drop-down staircase for easy entry/exit from the water....in rough seas it was challenging, and we were tossed around a bit! You MUST be able to swim without a life vest. Would we do it again....absolutely! Thanks to the captain and crew!

Captain Dan and his amazing crew were able to accommodate my wheelchair accessibility needs and give me an amazing experience. Rather than focusing on “Can you walk?” Captain Dan discussed my need to get into the water and how he and his crew could help. I was able to bump up and down the stairs, which went right into the water. It’s the only place that I was able to book one of these tours. Many other snorkeling companies didn’t have the right type of boat or were already booked. Thank you, Captain Dan, his crew, and Konastyle for trusting my judgement and partnering with me to figure out a way to happen this happen. If you have a disability and want to go snorkeling with the manta rays for a tour of a lifetime, reach out and partner with Captain Dan and his crew at Konastyle. They are the go-to place for people with physical disabilities.

The whole experience was first class and amazing the crew were superb friendly and knowledgeable We did a night snorkel with manta Rays And in the morning a lovely cruise to snorkel at a little cove by captain cook’s monument Highly recommended and will hopefully come back and do it again

Beautiful experience as a once in a lifetime opportunity. Thoroughly recommend this as a to do in Kona- Hawai'i. The wonders of the sea at your fingertips. It was great to be able to support one of the crew members- our Ohana to see his mahi and to hear the breadth of knowledge imparted to us on preparing for the Manta rays and during the swim. A big MAHOLA NUI to the amazing and friendly crew for their manaaki and care for all of us whether as a swimmer or on the boat as a spectator. Especially grateful when we heard the next day from the Captain, who rang to check in on us, that we had just missed being involved in a shooting incident that occurred minutes after leaving the pier. Glad to hear you were all safe while awaiting the Police and getting home. Ngaa mihi

The highlight of our 2 week trip in Hawaii was the Late night Manta Snorkel. Kamakani, Trek and the Team were amazing and made us feel really special. Especially Kamakani. He took photos while in the water as well which we will forever treasure and remember. The Mantas are so beautiful and majestic and we saw so many of them. I will never forget this night. Thank you team
