Snorkeling with Manta Ray is truly a rare and unforgettable experience. Nusa Penida Island is known to have some of the most consistent sightings of these beauties in the world.
They are always around, no matter the season. We are lucky enough to see them at any time of the year. The Reef Manta ray, which is found on Nusa Penida, measures up to 5.5m wide. Oceanic Manta rays, on the other hand, can measure up to 8.8m wide. We can find them in other locations around Indonesia. We must remember that Manta rays are harmless and do not have a stinger. They feed on microplankton and are just as interested in us as we are in them. Don’t be afraid: they are gentle giants.
Experiencing a snorkeling trip amongst Manta rays is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and we advise taking it. If you want to have a better idea of how to interact with them, then please click HERE. We are responsible ocean adventurers and need to behave in that manner at all times. Moreover, your guide will give you the tips and tricks needed to have a wonderful time out there with them.
- Take caution when entering the water. Please stay 10 m (33 ft) away, at all times.
- Please refrain from splashing the water around.
- If the Manta ray approaches you, don’t panic. Stay still and please do not touch them.
- Please refrain from approaching the Manta and do not block its swim path.
- Please do not chase the Manta rays or make them feel threatened by us.
