Advice for Kona dive trip -- shore dives and manta night dive operators

[spoolin01]

Could anyone recommend a shop in 2023 for the night manta dive? We've done the snorkel surface thing when the kids were younger but now that everyone is certified and experienced we are making the special island hop just to do the night dive with the manta.

Just saw this - you'll probably get better responses if you post a new thread with your request in the title.

We did the dive with Big Island divers. I don’t remember it being so short. I also remember seeing what looked like a million garden eels in the sand as we made our way out to the site. Great memories.

Thanks Jaan, I will check out Big Island and Kona Honu. We're about a month out and already excited about this dive in particular.
