Manta Mania is Here – A ”Must Do”!

One of the premier dives in the world is the famous Kona Manta Ray Night Dive. It is an amazing experience. Each year thousands of divers and snorkelers from around the world visit Kona to dive & snorkel with the manta rays. The Kona Coast is one of the best places in the world to get close to and observe manta rays. Their huge 12-foot wingspans and agile movements are truly memorizing. With no teeth, they are quite harmless. Manta rays feast on tiny plankton as they swoop down through the water.

SEA ROCKETS – Fair Wind’s New Adventure

Hawaii’s Pristine Ocean Environment.

We all know that Hawaii boasts some of the world’s finest snorkel and diving locations in the world. In fact, more than a quarter of the marine life in Hawaii cannot be found anywhere else on earth. It is indeed a very rare and fragile environment that we are fortunate enough to experience. As guests of this unique underwater world, we are all responsible for the reef’s preservation and future health. Fair Wind is proud to be part of an island-wide effort to help educate residents and visitors alike about ways in which they can help.
