On this trip

Where this boat goes

The classic morning trip. Manta Bay is the sheltered north-west feeding ground, so it stays workable when the south coast is rough. Three to four stops in two hours.

Depth 3–8 m · Sheltered · Beginner friendly

Manta Bay

A sheltered bay on the north-west coast where mantas feed near the surface. The most reliable site when the south coast is closed, and the shortest boat ride.

Depth 2–8 m · Coral density · Can run current

Gamat Bay

A narrow channel with dense hard coral and clouds of anthias, plus the shallow wall next door where nervous first-timers usually get comfortable.

Depth 3–10 m · Best visibility · Turtles

Crystal Bay

The clearest water on the island on a good day, with a coral garden on the north side of the bay and frequent green turtle sightings.

Depth 2–8 m · Coral density · Can run current

Wall Point

A narrow channel with dense hard coral and clouds of anthias, plus the shallow wall next door where nervous first-timers usually get comfortable.
