Manta Ray Experience (SEASONAL on Specific dates between MAY to OCTOBER ONLY)

Departing Port Denarau, you’ll board our high-speed catamaran bound for the Yasawa Islands. Cruise through the Mamanuca and Yasawa Islands as we drop off/pick up guests from resorts along the way before disembarking at Mantaray Island Resort.

Timings Following a briefing, you’ll board tender boats and be taken out to have the chance to swim and snorkel (buoyancy aids are available for less confident swimmers) amongst the manta rays while they glide throughout this popular feeding ground. Lunch is provided at Mantaray Island Resort before our vessel collects you again at 2.40pm for your return journey to Port Denarau.

Seeing manta ray We work with the experienced team at Mantaray Island Resort to carefully choose dates around tide times that have a higher chance of manta rays coming to feed in ‘manta channel’ but manta rays are wild creatures and as such are on their own schedule. If they are not in the channel on the day of your trip, you will experience one of Fiji’s most vibrant tropical reefs, via a guided snorkelling trip, which is home to an abundance of starfish, anemones, reef sharks, morays, octopus, and butterfly fish, an amazing experience in itself. You can also return on the next available Manta Ray Experience for only FJ$75 per person and hope the manta’s will be more hospitable!

Food and Drinks A delicious lunch is included in your day trip and drinks can be purchased at the resort. If you require a vegetarian option, please specify in the ‘special requirements’ box when you go through the booking process.
