What an amazing experience. Even though the water was a little rough the staff were very attentive and the Manta's were amazing!
Take this tour… you will not regret it! Our guides were exceptional and the mantas were breathtaking. We met our guides at the boat and took a 25 minute ride out to the manta ray location. We were provided zip up swim jackets, snorkels and goggles. We got in the water and swam out to the lighted rafts. The mantas swam around us the whole time we were in the water and were incredibly close. It was a truly memorable experience! Some folks were nervous but it wasn’t scary at all. The mantas loved sound and would swim in circles in front of you if you sang to them. They ranged in size from 5-8 feet across and were just amazing! After getting out of the water we had a nice warm shower waiting. I will absolutely go back in the future!
