The tour is awesome and the price is right; by far, one of the coolest things weā€™ve done. The staff are super knowledgeable about the rays and are attentive!! The rays come within centimeters of touching you. Such an amazing experience. You will of regret it!

This was an absolutely once-in-a-lifetime experience! Where else can you swim with the giant, beautiful and graceful Manta Rays? Our Captain David, snorkel guide Dylan and assistant Brie made this a fun and easy outing. We received a good briefing on what to expect, how to participate and all the pertinent details before donning a lightweight wetsuit and getting into the boat. Very short ride of about 5 minutes and we were in the water, holding onto a surfboard with side handles and underwater spotlights. Within seconds, several Mantas were visiting and scooping up the plankton attracted to the lights! They came within inches of us, totally graceful and harmless! Even if they do accidentally brush you, there's no danger. They are truly beautiful and amazing and being in the water with them is a fantastic experience! This is a must outing for everyone who enjoys marine life and diving or snorkeling.
