Big Island: Atlantis Submarine from Kona Beach

Submarine
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.

Walking in the Clouds
Our tour guide was very knowledgable about the area and history of the Kona Cloud Forest. I was quite taken by her knowledge of the different foliage in the area,history and botanical importance to the environment. The trail was natural, which made it all the more interesting, The tour guide answered questions clearly and with confidence, showing her knowledge of the area. I would definitely recommend this tour to my friends, co-workers and visitors.

Sunset, Manta Ray Snorkel Trip
Amazing trip! Sunset was beautiful! The guides and crew were very knowledgeable and explained in detail what we were going to do and see while we were snorkeling with the Manta Rays! Our guide explained what the Manta Rays would be doing and added some interesting facts and information about the Manta Rays too. Highly recommend this amazing experience!

Kona’s Best Manta Ray Night Snorkel Small Group Experience
CalifirniaSmile, Sep 2026
An absolute must
I wasn’t sure what to expect but this adventure is 1000/10! Highly recommend and it will be a highlight of your Hawaiian vacation! The boat ride was thrilling, the nighttime “swim” was remarkable. You won’t have a better crew than Alexis, Raechel, and Emily! We learned a ton about the area and manta rays. We say about 3 manta rays. But just being in the water at night was worth it! So if you don’t see any manta rays which is possible it’s still a fantastic experience! I would definitely book again! I would also say this should only be for good swimmers! Anytime you are getting in the ocean- know how to swim. Your panic and fear puts everyone at risk! Friendly reminder. Bring some cash to tip the crew! They are worth it and work hard for you to have an excellent experience!

Spontaneous, but well worth the time.
This trip was very spontaneous for my husband and I. I felt the cost of the experience was well within the price range of activities on the island. Our tour guide Heather rose was amazing. She was super informative, pleasant to talk to I felt like she knew all the answers to the questions that were asked. I also feel like the environment that the trees and flowers are flourishing in was incredible. Highly recommend this as an unusual stop on your Hawaiian vacation.

10/10 manta day experience
We were visiting from England and researched the most ethical and value for money tour, sea paradise came to the top of our searches. We received plenty of information prior to arriving, parking was located along Kaleiopapa road. We were greeted by an enthusiastic crew who made everyone feel comfortable. The manta ray experience was incredible! We were very lucky and saw dolphins as well as tuna during our snorkelling time. On the way back to the pier we were provided with drinks and an amazing view of the milkway. I would do this tour all over again if I had time. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Kailua Kona , it is a must do.

It is 100% worth every penny and way better in person than you can even imagine!! The all woman dream team of Christine, Sara, Alexis and Carmelle were amazing, attentive, funny and professional. Loved every second of this experience. Manta Ray's were literally kissing us with 5 seconds of entering the water.

Great Experience!! Boat was clean, lots of shade if you wanted it and lots of deck space if you didn’t. Crew was amazing and knowledgable! Saw dolphins on the way to and from the bay and lots of beautiful fish while snorkeling. Complimentary snacks, soda, water and juice were plentiful! Cocktails for purchase after snorkeling were super yummy! Would definitely recommend!
