This was a once in a lifetime adventure! The crew was absolutely the best, they take care of your every need and are super friendly, knowledgeable and do a great job of putting your mind at ease, you are in the Pacific Ocean at night swimming with 1000lb fish after all. You can tell they actually care because they actually learn your name and where your from. I can't recommend them enough. Indiana

An experience you’ll always remember the Rays came swam right up to us within inches. More than what we expected well worth it if this is all you do while you are here in Kona. The boat is well taken care of comfortable and the Crew is amazingly helpful in everything to make your trip the greatest. Highly recommended as a bucket list item. Thanks again to Kona Style.

Outstanding tour, we had 8 in our group. Service was excellent, very safe and professional. First time to see Mantas for all of us, if you only have time for one outing this is what I'd choose. We enjoyed it so much we came back for the captain Cook daytime outing as well. Again outstanding service. Highly recommend Kona Style.

The crew was awesome and very informative. They have so much knowledge of the rays and it was was a great experience. I would highly recommend them if you wanna see some beautiful rays and have a great time

Absolutely one of the best experiences we have ever done! The crew was amazing! Very knowledgeable, helpful and caring. You always felt safe and secure, and it was truly a must do! When else can you see mantas within inches of you!?! Refreshments were served, cocktails are available, a wetsuit top was provided, if you chill easy, you might want to bring full wetsuit! But soooooooo worth the cold!! I kind of hate to leave a positive review because I loved it and want to do it again without 5000 other people there!

We were recommended to do this tour by some family that visited the island in 2023. We booked the tour expecting to see maybe 1-2 mantas, and boy were our expectations totally blown out of the water! We had a smaller group with one light board, and I kid you not, we saw about 14 mantas gather for a feeding frenzy! Everyone's experience will be different, but we left feeling that we just experienced something other worldly... The staff and crew were all wonderful and added to this amazing experience. If you are contemplating booking this excursion, just do it.. No matter how many mantas you see, you will not be disappointed seeing these magnificent creatures up close and personal!

We lucked out. Nice sunset after several tours were canceled that day. They provide shirt wetsuits and I had a swim shirt on. Great guides. We were told not to touch the rays. But what if they touch us!... Magnificent to see the wide open mouths and the undersides of the rays. Sometimes they were so close your eyes crossed! We probably wont' ever get back to the Big Island so I only had this chance. My husband road on the boat but didn't snorkel. He was not alone. This was suggested by a friend and the office was across the street from us so it worked out great.

Great experience, we saw so many Manta rays, non-stop for the entire hour in the water. Kona Style is a great boat, very clean and well organized. Wonderful captain and crew were all very personable, professional, and knowledgeable. Watching dolphins and the sunset on the ride out. Hot chocolate and other drinks were served on the way back. Would highly recommend Kona Style.

Awesome trip. Capt Tanner and the crew were great. Kids and I were able to see 10 plus Manta’s. Boat ride was smooth, gear was great. Mahalo!!

Storyteller746642

These folks are great! Did 2 trips with them; the night manta snorkel and the day snorkel @ Captain Cook. Everything about it was first rate. Highly recommend Konastyle if you are looking for a fun well run tour.
