Although you are able to view mantas during daylight hours, they feed most actively at night when many plankton rises towards the water’s surface. By using dive lights that are safe for the mantas, you’ll be able to attract and get close to the mantas.

Unlike sting rays, mantas are very gentle and don’t have teeth, stingers or barbs. These big and beautiful animals are truly amazing, boasting wingspans that can exceed 15 feet (4.5 meters) in width! They are completely safe to be around, so hop aboard for the aquatic experience of a lifetime!
