The Big Island runs a lava field and a manta ray in the same day if you plan it. Below are the volcano circuits, the Kona night snorkels and the waterfall stops, with running times, what happens when the volcano is quiet, and which operators supply the wetsuits.

Kona Manta Ray snorkeling from Keauhou Harbor at night, with a powerful light board and small groups, gear included from $25.
“One of the best experiences of your life! Crew was helpful, comforting and funny to keep the mood light. Lucky enough to see 5-6 manta rays glide throw the water and even come right up to our faces. Ocean area for viewing is lit up with multiple groups of people and boats so you don't feel like you're alone in the ocean at night. Highly recommended, even if the unknowns of the ocean make you a little nervous.”
Volcanoes National Park, a lava tube walk, and black sand beach sea turtles on a 6-hour Hilo shore excursion.
“I will not use them again, the let us sit and wait in the terminal building for one hour without information, before they finally came with a bus and on top they cut the trip with half and hour.”

“Felix, our tour guide, was an exceptional person. He was incredibly knowledgeable and caring, going above and beyond to provide umbrellas, rain jackets, windbreakers, and blankets to ensure our comfort during the tour. Despite the adverse weather conditions, he made an extra effort to obtain a clear view of the crater and the stars. God bless you Felix.”
