2.25 Hours
Our late night manta ray adventure (seasonal) is geared more towards those guests that are comfortable snorkeling in the ocean late at night. Because of the late start time, there are less boats and less people at Manta Ray Village which makes this a much more surreal experience. Start your adventure by watching the lights of Kona town as we make our way to our snorkel destination (Manta Ray Village). Once we arrive at the snorkel location, receive a full safety briefing before joining our guides in the water to snorkel with the majestic hahalua (manta rays). Afterwards, join us back on the boat for hot cocoa, hot tea or a cocktail while you enjoy the beautiful night sky and the lights of Kona town as we make our back to the pier. Because this tour is done late at night and geared towards more experienced snorkelers, guests going in the water on this tour should have previous snorkeling experience.
Trip includes all snorkel equipment, T-top wetsuits and all non-alcoholic beverages, with beer, wine and spirits available for purchase.
