We had a really nice cruise, what we wanted- small, personalized experience. We enjoyed the leisurely pace of the canoe, and the information Captain Chris provided, interesting tidbits of the Hawaiian settlement of the islands. A nice little snorkel.

A perfect blend of sailing along the coast, snorkeling with and abundance of sea life and information of the cultural significance of the area. We where lucky enough to have turtle and a huge pod of dolphins join our tour. The crew were fantastic and informative. A must do!

On the back of doing an amazing manta ray swim with Eka last night, this morning I did their snorkelling tour. The morning tour was fun and a perfect way to again be in the crystal clear blue waters around Kona. Great attentive and highly knowledgeable staff ensured a fun morning was had. The snorkelling was very good, plenty of fish to be seen. The real bonus was having the local spinner dolphins join us on the tour too.

My husband and I loved our tour on this double- hulled canoe! Captain Chris was very knowledgeable and pointed out cultural and natural landmarks along the way. This was our second trip with Eka and we will be back!

This is a very special outing on a cool boat with an amazing captain! Chris, our captain, was knowledgeable and accommodating. We enjoyed every minute and only wanted it to last longer!

Chris and the crew were amazing and so helpful! Several folks on our team hadn't snorkeled before, and they felt well supported. Others had been several times, and there was fun and challenges appropriate for all levels. As an Indigenous team, we loved learning about Native Hawaiian history, culture, and key landmarks along the way! Thank you for the amazing trip!!!

Our morning sail onboard Kini-Kini was excellent. Captain Chris and Kama were both a wealth of information about the amazing landscape and Hawaiian history. We had watched this beautiful boat sail the Kona coast for years and were so excited to finally be onboard. I give it a huge thumbs up over the bigger and much more crowded sailing/snorkeling cruises available. The price for 2.5 hours could not be beat either! It exceeded our expectations. Mahalo!

Trip was fantastic! Never experienced anything like it. The captain and the young woman who assisted were knowledgeable and helpful. The manta rays were awesome!

I booked this because the boat was cool. Got to see whales up close as we transited to snorkeling. Guide was knowledgeable about the region's past and present. Highly recomended. Also, the boat was actually really cool.

Was a little nervous about the experiences. The water was a little rough that day. Staff was phenomenal and we had absolutely the best time! They made sure everyone was comfortable and safe, the manta rays were totally amazing. I would definitely recommend this tour company to anyone looking to have this great experience.

Amazing staff! The girl at check-in seemed like she would rather be anywhere else, so I was nervous about the experience. But the captain and first mate made up for it! The care and excitement they created was great! - The smaller boat makes it more intimate. We actually stayed a little longer in the water. - The boat ride is about 3 minutes - The ocean at night is scary. But they light it up so well I always felt safe. - you will 100% see mantas and be blown away. - Check in is PAST the big building. It’s down the dark path to the right of the building. Pro tip - there is a small parking lot down there. So pass up all the parked cars and try your luck here! I will be coming back!

When we thought about activities Manta Tours came up, we did a LOT of research and we decided on Eka Canoe and we are so happy for choosing you. They go straight to the Mantas and immediately we felt safe and enjoying the Mantas swimming around us. For sure the highlight of our 3 week Hawaiian Islands vacations. Thanks for making our trip be fun and unique A forever memory you need to book

Another fun experience! This was my second time doing this and wanted to do it again with other friends. Very knowledgeable and friendly staff. Most importantly, we saw so many manta rays on our night! Thanks again Eka Canoe Adventures! 🤙🏾

Excellent tour, professional crew, just the right time in the water and we’re lucky enough to see plenty of rays. The gear was top qualify - all you really need to bring on the canoe is yourself and maybe a towel. Would recommend the experience.

We, family with two teenagers, loved this experience! Eka Canoe Adventures took well care of us and knew exactly what they were doing. We were so lucky to be snorkelling with all the mantas that came out to dance/feed with us when we went out. Loved every minute of it - didn’t want to go back to shore!
