Majestic.
Inspiring. Awesome. Just some of the words you will be using to
describe your manta encounter.
Kona
is home to the world famous Kona Manta Ray night dive. Manta Rays
(manta birostris) are members of the elasmobranch family of rays.
They feed strictly on plankton and can grow to have a 16' wing span.
We are fortunate to have a small population of resident manta rays
that like to frequent particular bays to feed on yummy dishes of
copepods and zooplankton. The secret that not very many people know
is that they are feeding in shallow water and snorkelers are able
to enjoy the manta ballet from the surface, while watching the divers
and the mantas below.
