My husband and I had an incredible experience doing the manta sunset snorkel on our honeymoon! I was terrified to get in the water and Captain Dan made me feel so comfortable and safe. I was literally planning to just watch as my husband swam with the mantas but he convinced me to go in and I'm SO happy I did! Thank you for an unforgettable, once in a life time experience!

Captain Dan, First Mate Brittany and crew are top notch!!! We went with our company and had such an amazing time that we brought our family 3 days later when they arrived in Hawaii. My kids couldn’t stop talking about how cool swimming with the Manta Rays were….we will never forget this experience!

As advertised and then some. Plenty of Manta Rays. We went during sunset and got a sunset cruise thrown in for free. We couldn't have asked for a better captain and crew.

It was absolutely amazing! Beautiful sunset. So many mantas swam so close! It was a trip of a lifetime. Captain Dan and the crew took great care of us. Might want to take something for motion sickness. My husband began getting seasick while in the water watching for mantas. But he said that the motion sickness didn’t diminish how amazing the mantas were.

Absolutely incredible experience. We had at least 6 giant manta rays continually brush against us. They were between 600 and 1200 pounds. So gentle and safe! An absolute must do on your bucket list. Captain Dan and crew were so professional and amazing. Tip them well as they deserve it.
My only nit: The white wine ($10) on board was good, but the red wine was undrinkable. It burned going down!
Have snacks at the Cheeky Tiki before as there is no food on board other than a cookie at the end (8:30). The restaurant has good service and 1 minute walk to check in. If you get early, you can park in free parking lot behind restaurants.

Amazing experience! I was a little Leary of a night time snorkel, but those fears soon were forgotten. This company is top notch. They provide instruction, gear , hospitality, professionalism and enthusiasm. The boat was beautiful, the sunset breathtaking, and the mantas… beyond all expectations. Amazing to watch them barrel roll right next to us, sometimes brushing gently against us. An hour in the water went by so fast. After reviewing many companies, we chose konastyle and so glad we did. Thanks for an experience I will never forget!

We received this tour as a wedding gift from one of our friends and it was hands down the highlight of our honeymoon! Captain Dan and his crew were kind, fun and knowledgeable. They all had a great sense of humor and made sure everyone was having an enjoyable evening. The sunset views were incredible and we saw TONS of manta rays in the water. They played great music on the boat + there was an open bar (which we didn't realize was going to be provided -- added perk!). We highly recommend going through Kona Style for any ocean tours you're considering booking while in Kona.
