5.00This was such an amazing experience! We were in Hawaii for my best friends wedding. I did a manta day dive years ago and wanted to go again…this time was hands down the best time. We were SURROUNDED by rays! I was in heaven. This tour exceeded my expectations. Our crew was beyond amazing. If you’re thinking of doing this, book with these guys! You won’t be disappointed.
Spectacular experience!

5.00Such an amazing life experience. The Hang Loose crew did a great job across the board from preparing and distributing the gear, putting us on the rays in a timely manner, and entertaining us throughout with commentary and friendly crew to crew banter. We ended up having 7 rays at our location at one point which was more than expected. Also plenty of other fish and creatures to see but being face to face with the rays is the absolute highlight. 10/10 recommend.
