We enjoyed the entire experience. Very friendly staff. The guide was extremely knowledgeable and the manta rays coming close in acrobatic graceful moves were more thanwe imagined. Well with the cost and is a must do.

What a magical experience! But I was a bit skeptical at first. We took a small 6 seater Zodiac boat a very short ride to the viewing area. Our guide got in the water with a surfboard that had a light attached to the underside and a battery on top. We were surrounded by big boats and elaborate boards. But I quickly realized the benefits of being with a smaller tour. Our guides maneuvered us around in between the other boats easily until we were in the perfect spot. And I mean perfect. The next thing I knew we had manta rays swimming inches from our bodies. Since there were just 6 of us we all saw each and every ray. Our guide was close enough on the small board to tell us all the rays names and ages and other details. It was an experience I will never forget.
