What To Expect

Once you arrive at the "World Famous Manta Ray Village" our expert staff will provide a knowledgeable and professional briefing as they prepare you to enter the water. After the briefing our staff guides you onto our state of the art “manta floatation device”. Here you will float above the manta rays as they feed on the microscopic plankton. Plankton rises from the bottom of the ocean at night and is attracted to the light source attached to the float. As your incredible snorkel experience comes to and end our staff guides you back onboard. Snorkel time is approximately 45 min.
