This experience was once in a life time. Communication was excellent from booking through the actual experience. Everyone was friendly and helpful. We saw so many manta rays! We were in the water around 8:16 PM. We wished we had a way to take pictures so I would recommend a waterproof case for your phone or renting a go pro. Also make sure to bring a towel and leave some dry clothes in the car to change into.
Give it a minute - you will be amazed!

Short boat ride, and a little eerie at first. We thought we might not even see any, but when they arrived -- it was super intense and a bucket list experience. Definitely recommend this one!
Just ok

It was just ok- was expecting a lot more based on prior reviews. We had 7pm check in, but didn’t get on the boat till 7:45. Normally wouldn’t be an issue, but it was raining and there is nowhere to wait as the meeting point is by the bathrooms. Out of 20 min in the water, we saw manta rays for probably 2 min. I was in between two guides and both were speaking at the same time so couldn’t hear either one very well. Kids got cold towards the end. For most of us this was the least favorite activity on the island. For this price, I wouldn’t recommend it though it was cool to see the mantas for those 2 mins.
