Less than a foot from our face!

Published on Jan, 2025

This was an incredible experience! Although the tour isn't super long, you really don't need it to be longer! The team was familiar with many of the rays and had names for them, and even knew the stories behind some of the scars or injuries we saw on them. Very cool experience. One note - there's an extra $10 fee for borrowing a wetsuit top - we did not find them necessary.

Great staff!

Published on Jan, 2025

It was a great tour! We saw tons of mantas. We had bill and Jordan as our captain and life guard and shay was in the water with us. All 3 were super knowledgeable and made the experience very enjoyable. I loved that we had such a short boat ride there and back so even without a wetsuit I wasn't too cold. You can only take your towel, a waterproof camera and your phone if it's in a waterproof case with you on the boat. But they do allow you to leave anything else you want at the van with one of their staff members.

Great manta rays...

Published on Jan, 2025

Great manta rays experience! The crew and Shay did a great job ensuring that we got to see the manta rays.

Huge Mantas-Exhilarating Trip

Published on Jan, 2025

This was the best paid activity we did. Captain Chris, Lifeguard Shay, and Diver Jordan were great guides and made the trip more fun. Swimming with the mantas was so exhilarating. The views of the mantas were spectacular and they came so close to us. It’s a must do and we could do it over and over again. Take the jump off the couch and into the waters and see manta rays!!

Phenomenal!

Published on Jan, 2025

This was a phenomenal experience!! Would absolutely recommend to everyone! Giant Mantas got within inches and even brushed against us. So amazing to see these huge majestic creatures up close.
