About this activity

Your location offers one of the world’s premier manta ray viewing experiences, just a five-minute boat ride from the snorkel site. Utilizing advanced viewing technology, your experienced in-water crew safely guides guests through the ocean for an unforgettable encounter with these remarkable animals.

We offer three ticket options to accommodate different preferences. The Manta Guarantee allows guests to return on another tour if no mantas are seen and is best booked early in your stay. The Standard Ticket provides a single opportunity to view manta rays. Ride-Along ticket guests remain on the boat and do not enter the water; sightings are limited for this option. Snorkelers enjoy approximately 30 minutes in the water.

This nighttime manta snorkel is a truly memorable experience, offering a rare and close encounter that will leave a lasting impression.
