**bring your own towel and warm clothes for afterwards!!**
The manta rays come so close to you!! Try to be the first to exit the boat so you get dibs on the best spot and get the most time in the water.
People in our group kept not following the rules: float and lay flat so the manta rays are not spooked and come over. We laid there for about 30 minutes with nothing happening after the first manta came right when we got into the water (I think none came because of these people not floating and I could see their legs dangling). After these people got out of the water because they were bored or cold, 3 manta rays came! They were like nothing Iāve seen before. Iām happy I pushed through even though I was cold and kept lightly kicking to keep warm because the end was so worth it. Thankfully everyone left around the board in the end were laying flat so this could happen! They do offer noodles for those who canāt lay flat so I wish they did that for the everyone who couldnāt swim well.
No one got sea sick on our boat so that was great. Reading other reviews worried me but the captain controlled the boat well when it got choppy.
**wetsuit tops, snorkel goggles and snorkel, juice, water, snacks are provided.**
I would recommend this for adults who are good swimmers. I wish there was an option to pick a group with experienced swimmers for a better chance to see more manta rays. Life vests are provided for those who arenāt good at swimming, but I wish they could be separate groups.
Alejo and Jake (?) were great guides and very informative.
