Join Iruka Hawaii for a manta ray snorkel at sunset or under the stars. Departing from Honokohau Harbour, you’ll board our speedboat KIBOU and cruise the Kona coast! After sunset, gear up and head to Manta Ray Heaven, a site only accessible by boat. Submerged lights called “campfires” attract plankton, drawing in manta rays to feed. Float on a lighted platform and watch these gentle giants glide and roll below. This Big Island night snorkel is calm and beginner-friendly, with lifeguard-certified guides supporting all ages. First time snorkelling? We’ll offer simple tips to help you feel confident before entering the water. After 45 minutes in the water, enjoy hot cocoa, tea, and snacks as we cruise back under the stars. Named one of the “Top 10 Things to Do in Your Lifetime” by The Travel Channel, it’s the perfect end to an unforgettable night. Family-friendly and open to all ages. If you’re prone to motion sickness, take medication an hour before departure. You’re welcome to bring food and drinks. Alcohol is allowed after snorkelling (no glass bottles). Look for whales from November to March. Private manta ray charters available. Book your Kona Manta Ray Snorkel Tour today!
