This was everything promised, and more. We saw several mantas, and up close too! The guides were so great. They were so friendly and helpful. I was a bit nervous, but they made the experience feel very safe. It was easier than expected to get in and out of the boat and hang on to the light board. All in all, I was glad we went with this experienced crew. It was a wonderful experience I will never forget.

WOW what an incredible experience! I was absolutely mind blown during this! Our tour guides were incredible and did a great job keeping everyone safe. I am sorry I don’t remember their names but the young man who when in the water with us was incredibly knowledgeable and hilarious. I knew nothing about Manta Rays or what to expect, and I was awestruck! I almost cancelled this because it was far from where I was staying, and I am so so glad I did not. It was worth having to get a rental car and getting home at one in the morning 😂 100% recommend!

Our guides were funny, informative, kind, and professional. They treated everyone with respect and made sure that we all had a fun, safe, and memorable time. I would recommend this tour and our crew 10 out of 10. I recommend the 9:30 pm time slot - so few other boats out there and so peaceful.
