We were all very impressed with the diving off of the Big Island. Eco-Adventures did an amazing job of taking us to unusual places, giving very detailed, written, and clear site briefings, and showing us things that we had never seen before. Diving within lava fields and tubes was so unusual and very special. At the night manta ray dive we had 11 mantas swimming all around us. Eco also provided us with sandwiches between dives, not just sliced oranges; their operation is superb. |
