Big Island: Atlantis Submarine from Kona Beach

The experience was off the charts. The crew was great. I’d take the submarine out again. If you don’t want to snorkel, this is the way to see underwater fish and sea life.

Amazing Snorkeling and Crew
This was so fun snorkeling where the inspiration from “Finding Nemo” is from. Seeing the beautiful marine life and our captain was so informative and helpful. He made a few stops to tell us some history we even got to see the “Pele Goddess” that inspired Moana. They even had fresh pineapple it was delicious!

Manta Ray Night Snorkel Adventure in Kona
I6570UDkarik, Jul 2026
Best Tour in Kona!
The Manta Ray Night Snorkel was the absolute highlight of our stay in Kona. Sam and Brianna were amazing and so knowledgeable about marine life. We’ve been on larger boat tours which tend to feel impersonal and rushed. The smaller boat/group size felt personalized to our needs and was very enjoyable. We saw many manta rays and Brianna did a fantastic job with us in the water and videoed our manta ray experience for us. We can’t recommend them highly enough!

Must Do While In Kona!
Took my mom and daughter for a birthday excursion (daughter eight years old) and the experience could not have been better. Kris and Elayo were fabulous! I recommend this excursion with this team to anyone who wants an exceptional snorkeling experience paired with thoughtful snacks and kind, informative conversation.

Manta Ray Night Snorkel Review
The Manta Ray Snorkeling was amazing! Meeting everyone was very easy and it was seamless to get on the boat. Sam and Brianna were very nice to all of us, and we even saw some spinner nose dolphins too. It is definitely worth the price! The Manta Rays went really up close to us, and I thought that was an amazing experience. Brianna was very helpful guiding us toward the manta rays and helping us have a safe experience! Overall, I would rate this excursion highly!

Waikoloa Deluxe Whale Watch
loves2plan_vacations, Mar 2026
Great tour!
We took the 1 1/2 hour tour. Saw at least 6 humpbacks. They were breaching and diving. One even swam near our boat. Awesome experience! Brooke and Gail were fantastic. Very knowledgeable. The captain did something we had never seen on these kinds of tours-she put down a microphone into the water so we could hear the whales we were looking at. Definitely would recommend.
