The boat capt and guides (Colin, Dylan, and Jack) were friendly and welcoming and made sure everyone had a great time from showing up on the dock, in the water and back to land! They will be my first pick for any Kona diving trips in the future!

Great Time!
The captain and the guy hooking up our harnesses were both super nice and helped my older mother, who is anxious about heights, feel comfortable. We all had an amazing time parasailing! Also, our original reservation was canceled due to weather and they were good with communicating to help me reschedule during our vacation. Thank you!

Unbelievably awesome. The captain and CJ did an outstanding job. Great boat and the experience was breathtaking. The. It’s was very comfortable and they provided wet suits and snorkels. CJ’s knowledge of mantas was impressive. We learned as well as experienced so much of these magnificent creatures.

Best Experience on the island
This experience was 100% worth every penny. 30 seconds in we had Mantas barrel rolling right in my face. They were almost too close to film. The all female crew was a dream team. Courtney, Alexis, Sara and Carmelle were amazing, attentive, fun and professional. We didn't have to do anything but enjoy!!

Personalized amazing snorkeling adventure!
Wow! I can’t say enough about our experience with Sam, Brianna, and Cliff. Sam selected the perfect snorkeling spots, and Brianna was our own personal guide in the water, with a wide range of knowledge, while taking video. Cliff took some amazing photos of this truly personal experience. We loved the crew so much it felt like we were hanging out with friends. They have a top of the line boat and provide everything that you need. Much better than snorkeling with a large tour group of strangers.

One Tank Manta Night Dive and Snorkel
jgmow, Aug 2026
Hell yes 🙌
My friend booked the night Scuba and I booked the night Snorkel tour with Aquatic Life Divers in early August 2026. Our captain was Tara, our Dive Queen was Mary, and our Snorkel guide was Tara. They all did a wonderful job especially Mary who explained the safety and manta stuff clearly and loudly. Safety is #1 for me and they had EVERYTHING from pfd for poor swimmers to AED and flare guns covered! I went as a snorkeler and we held on to a paddleboard as a group but noticed other tour groups floated on some pool noodles. I am glad I did the paddleboard thing because there was less people bumping into and kicking me. Best of all, I got the most amazing UP CLOSE views of the mantas and a few fish too! My friend enjoyed it too but told me he wasn’t pleased when they wouldn’t let him rinse his snorkel gear in their freshwater buckets 🤦‍♂️. I liked they also offered extras including bean bags on the front of the boat deck 🙌, POG juice, and some snacks like rice krispy treats. We also got a very small cup of hot ginger tea at tour’s end. The waves can make the boat feel rocky so I got a bit dizzy at the end, but lying down on the bean bags really helped curb any vomitting. I did the snorkel with the sharks tour in Oahu too & that tour was way more dizzying despite me taking Dramamine. The manta rays tour, personally, was hands down better than the shark tour just cus the mantas brushed up against me and didn’t kill me. FYI: Remember to bring your own dry beach towel as they don’t provide them.

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!
