This was the most magical experience for our family. If you have the chance to do this, book it!!The crew from Hang Loose was THE BEST. The boat ride at night was beautiful, they shared a ton of interesting information about the Mantas and helped ease any nervousness our kiddos had getting into the water. They even went above and beyond by finding an item our son left on the boat and shipping it all the way back to us in Colorado 😭

We had a phenomenal two reef snorkeling excursion. Seth was an amazing captain and guide! Snorkeling at both reefs was fantastic but exceptional at Honaunau Bay (Two Step Beach). We will do this again if we are lucky enough to travel back to the Big Island!

This snorkel experience was absolutely incredible! We got to spend so much time in the water, the views were gorgeous, and staff was funny and friendly. They even brought us along the coast line on our way back and provided us with some history of the landmarks we passed. It was the perfect amount of people on this boat, not crowded at all! Very much worth the money and perfect for all ages.

Do it! You won't regret it
What an incredible experience! It's some of the best snorkeling I've ever done! We watched an octopus hunting and then an eel swam by. The fish we're everywhere! Seriously a great experience. We went early and had the snorkeling to ourselves for the first part. Rory and Lucas showed us some really cool sights along the way and were incredible. Then my husband realized he swam with our rental fob in his pocket! Deavon stayed and helped us get a new battery. He went to 5 stores and went way above and beyond. If you want to go with a tour that treats you extremely well this is the one!

Me and my boyfriend went on this tour and it was really enjoyable! From the communication on where to meet up, the ride out to the bay (our captain Koa was great!), snorkeling, and tour after was great! Lucas was also very nice and helpful if you needed anything. They cut up fresh pineapple as a snack and even handed out cold waters which was much needed. They had a great sense of humor and truly just wanted us to enjoy ourselves. I would do this again (and it’s a great price). Thank you so much for making our trip great!

We booked our manta ray trip last week and this was the most amazing experience ever! Our team we had on 8/19 was amazing. The crew and captain were awesome and we felt safe and taken care of the entire time. They communicated well and really made sure you had a great experience. I highly recommend booking with them for your next adventure.

Best experience of our trip!!!
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.

Captain Cook snorkel in a Speedboat
The check in was a little off putting to meet at van on the corner of a street, the listing for sure needs to be updated with all the information that was texted to me, especially with the prices of different supplies offered, I felt as if I was a little blindsided by text message with all the additional information. The crew once on board was great, very a shared a lot of fun history and information about the local area and gave us a more information of the lore of Captain Cook. I would for sure book again.

Manta Rays did not disappoint! 10 out of 10
This was an amazing experience with my daughter. We did the 6pm and got a great sunset and then into the water. When the lights come on be ready for a ton of fish to be all around you.... so stay calm and let them do their thing. After about 15mins in the water came the rays.... they came solo and in pairs doing fly bys and loops inches from you but never touch you. We had rough seas so it was a workout but super worth it. We had a ton of people on our tour that were afraid of the water which made things interesting and challenging for the crew but they did a great job. Bring a $20 tip for the videos they give you at the end. Water was warm but consider the wetsuit rental if you get cold easy. SHOW UP with your swim suit on and maybe a sweatshirt for the ride back.
