Blue Sea Cruises (Evening)
One of the glass bottom cruises on the Big Island, Blue Sea Cruises, offers sunset dinner cruises on its seventy-foot double-deck catamaran called the Spirit of Kona. This glass bottom dinner cruise often provides a view of the ever so special Manta Rays which come out during the evening along the Kona Coast. These ocean "creatures of the night" are a sight to remember and add a touch of excitement to a romantic sunset dinner cruise offered by Blue Sea Cruises. …
| Description: A sunset cruise with live local entertainment, a full course dinner buffet, soft drinks, water and a complimentary bar every night. View dolphins, manta rays, turtles and a variety of tropical fish and other marine life through 2 large glass bottom wells. After sunset the downward lights mounted in the hull of the Spirit light up the reef and offer the opportunity to view the nocturnal sea life, which can include Kona's famous Manta Rays. Transportation to and from your hotel is available for an extra fee.

| Description: Board the Makai and settle in the cushy comfort of the upper deck and cruise to the evenings Manta site. Enjoy the scenic Kona coast as your crew pampers you with snacks and beverages. Upon arrival, move to the lower "wet" deck and prepare for the experience of a lifetime as you anticipate the arrival of the evenings entertainment, the giant Kona Manta Rays. Manta Rays often swim within inches of you as they hold on to the specially designed "Circle of Light" viewing frame. This frame allows Manta Rays to swim up in front of guests not just under them. This not only gives you the opportunity for a better view of the Mantas, it also allows for a safer encounter for the Mantas. Human contact such as accidental kicking of Mantas or touching Mantas, is greatly reduced. After your Manta experience, return to the Makai's warm dry upper deck to share your experience with the other guests. Sit back on the return cruise and enjoy complimentary snacks, hot coffee and sodas. Beer, wine and mixed drinks are available for purchase.

| Description: No need to get wet! Watch the Giant Kona Manta Rays perform an underwater ballet while you stay dry, safe, cozy and comfortable on the decks of the glass bottom boat, the Spirit of Kona. High intensity lights illuminate the underwater scene. Watch through the large glass bottom windows as the giant manta ray enters and feeds on the plankton forming near the lights under the boat.
