Snorkel with Manta Rays

Join us as we search for the enigmatic, graceful, inquisitive and charismatic manta rays in the waters of the Baa Atoll. If the conditions are right, we will go to Hanifaru Bay, just a 20-minute speedboat ride from Soneva Fushi, which has one of the world’s largest populations of manta rays. When time and tide align, fortunate snorkellers get to observe and capture a rolling, whirling feast where it may be possible to see hundreds of these large, yet harmless, creatures congregate to gorge themselves in the plankton-rich waters. There are also several other locations close to Soneva Fushi where manta sightings are common, so the exact itinerary of the trip may vary to maximise the chance of seeing these magnificent creatures. If mantas are not seen on the trip, the Marine Biologist will lead an underwater discovery tour to showcase the stunning scenery of the marine life in the Baa Atoll.
​*Manta sightings are frequent but not guaranteed.
