Step beneath the turquoise waters of the Maldives and encounter some of the ocean’s most captivating giants: the manta rays. Guided by an expert Marine Biologist, you’ll embark on an intimate journey to witness these graceful creatures in their natural habitat.
Depending on season and tides, snorkellers can explore renowned manta hotspots across the atolls, where plankton-rich waters attract these charismatic animals. Some lucky guests may witness a breathtaking spectacle of manta rays gliding, spinning, and feeding in a mesmerizing underwater ballet.
For a quieter experience, other nearby atolls and lagoons offer frequent manta sightings. Every journey is designed to maximise the chance of encounters while immersing you in the Maldives’ stunning coral reefs and vibrant marine life. Should mantas be elusive, the Marine Biologist will lead a bespoke underwater discovery, revealing hidden coral gardens, playful reef fish, and the secrets of the Maldivian waters.
More than snorkelling, this is an intimate encounter with one of the ocean’s most iconic species, creating memories that linger long after you leave the water.
Please note: manta sightings are frequent from June to October but cannot be guaranteed.
