Manta Night Snorkel Ride Along |
Rated one of the best snorkel and dives in the World, The manta ballet will mesmerize and astound you with there dance. Start you night enjoying a unbelievable Kona sunset on your way your to Manta Heaven. The unique symbiotic ocean relationship creates a truly amazing night snorkel experience. Enjoy one of the most popular snorkel adventures on the Kona coast of Hawaii. Join Ocean Eco Tours for the Manta Ray Night Snorkel and get up close and personal with these gentle giants of the deep. Imagine a dark liquid world into which you and your fellow snorkelers swim out equipped with bright hand held underwater lights. The lights attract plankton which in turn attracts the Manta Rays. This is a true symbiotic relationship - the Mantas get to eat the plankton and the humans get to enjoy the show. These agile swimmers swoop, circle and dive as they gather up the plankton putting on one of the best underwater entertainments anywhere. This snorkel adventure is very safe - the Manta's are known for their gentle attitudes and fascinating behavior. I (the webmaster of this website) love to go on this dive with Ocean Eco Tours as often as I get the chance. The Manta Ray Night Snorkel on the Kona Coast of Hawaii is something that should not be missed.

Whale Watch Tour (seasonal) |
Watch and enjoy these gentle giants in their own natural environment. See humpback whales (seasonal), spinner dolphins, Hawaiian green sea turtles, indigenous marine life and pristine coral reefs. Learn about their unique behavior and have fun doing it. Humpback whale sightings are common in Hawaii from December through May each year. About 60 percent of the North Pacific humpback whale population migrates to Hawaiian waters where they mate, give birth to and nurse their young.
Weighing about 3,000 pounds, humpback whale calves are born beneath the water and need to be pushed to the surface by their mothers so they can take their first breath of air. Calves stay very close to their mothers for the first year as they feed on their mother's milk and learn to swim. A Calf will consume about 50 gallons of milk per day and grow by about 100 pounds a day.

Adult
females begin to reproduce when they reach ten years of age and
have one baby (called a calf) per year. The gestation period lasts
between 10-12 months, after that a calf is born which usually measures
about 12 feet long.
