Rays on the Bay

We heard that the Sheraton in Kona has a nice restaurant / bar so we drove down to take a look around.  The main lobby is beautiful, with large open bay windows.

Boats begin to congregate.

There were quite a number of divers and snorkelers that entered the water from a variety of boats, it was pretty interesting to watch the process.  Apparently the manta rays are attracted to the lights, one that comes around regularly is 35 feet across.  It was an interesting evening, and the best Mai Tai's!
