The Manta Ray snorkel with Sam & first mate Brianna was the highlight of our trip to the Big Island. My teen daughters loved the fact that it was an all woman run boat; they said "yay, no crusty old dudes". The Zodiac is a beautiful, sparkly clean boat and their snorkel equipment and wetsuits are top notch. Also loved the small group, Brianna towed us around in the water to find the mantas. My eldery parents did not snorkel but loved the sunset boat ride and had a great time talking to Sam and another boat captain while my girls and I snorkeled. The Mantas were a bit shy at first, but right before we got out (45 min in the water) one beautiful Manta ray came and did several rolls right under our board, which Sam videoed for us and sent later. So Magical and a wonderful once in a lifetime experience! This was our one big splurge of the trip and well worth the money! Do not hesitate to book with Mid-Pacific tours, they are amazing!
Thank you so much for this incredible review! It was such a pleasure having your family aboard, and we're thrilled that everyone—from your daughters to your parents—had a memorable evening with us. We're so glad you enjoyed the small-group experience, our equipment, and, of course, that magical manta encounter at the end. Those final moments with the mantas are unforgettable, and we're happy we could capture the memory for you to take home. Mahalo for trusting us with your family's special night on the water and for recommending Mid-Pacific Tours. We hope to welcome you back for another Kona adventure someday! 🌺🤙 — Sam & Brianna Mid-Pacific Tours
