My family and I had an amazing time on Ocean Blue Kona’s private manta ray night snorkeling charter. Kevin and Erika were excellent hosts and guides. The … continue reading boat ride out with the sunset glowing over the ocean was a highlight on its own. Erika was our guide in the water and she did a fantastic job positioning us well for multiple sightings. Snorkeling at night was a unique experience; the OBK crew was attentive to our needs and both knowledgeable about and respectful of the wild mantas. Having a comfortable, clean boat all to ourselves made the adventure extra special. Highly recommend!

My husband, Art, and I went on a two hour snorkel with Captain Kehi and Justis early this morning. They are both local men who were raised here and are … continue reading so knowledgeable. They educated us on many of the coastline areas and their history. They also suggested many places to walk to and explore, including the aiopio ( fish traps and many small, beautiful beaches most tourists might not see. The gave us the history of the aiopio. They helped us spot and identify many of the fish. We saw spinner dolphins, an octopus and what I believe they called a nūnū. We are not experienced snorklers and they were very good at helping us with our gear, making us feel safe and comfortable, all while letting us maintain our dignity. We laughed a lot and enjoyed their company and guidance. Highly recommend these guys and their guidance. What a beautiful and fun experience. Mahalo!!
