Activities
SWIM WITH MANTA RAY
Close to the resort is Manta Channel (between Naviti and Drawaqa Islands), where plankton is funnelled through a narrow channel, making for a favourite feeding ground for the local population of manta ray who frequent the area between May and October each year and feed when the tide is high. When the tide is right, and manta ray have recently been sighted, take the resort's long boat to the area to snorkel with these majestic creatures in their natural environment. As a bonus, there is some fantastic snorkelling in the area, even if you don’t get to see a manta ray.
Day: Selected days from May to October (see the activity staff for details)
Time: Variable
Duration: 2 hours
