I just saw one yesterday (11/21/2010) at the Bay. It was outside of the white buoys (the two marking the rightmost channel when looking at the ocean from the beach), probably 20 yards outside of the buoys, right above the cable pipes on the bottom of the sea floor. It was feeding off the spawning of black triggerfish. I had never seen one at the bay. It was quite mellow and let me snap dozens of pictures. Right before, indeed, I had seen spotted eagle rays toward witches brew.

I have been to Hanauma many times and never had the opportunity you had to see a manta ray, please let us locals know of the area you were at to see such a beautiful creature, were you off the left or right side facing the open ocean from the beach? Obviously beyond the reef but how far and what month, thanks for sharing.

I don't remember what month it was. It was just outside the reef behind sandman's patch. If you out the channel in the middle and to the right. It was when there was a full moon. I have only seen manats a few times. I have seen spotted eagle rays more often near Witches Brew.
