Snorkel and glide alongside the majestic manta rays that frequent the 'Manta Channel' in the Naviti region channel between May and October each year. A must-do experience in Fiji! Our coach will pick you up from selected accommodation in Nadi, Denarau, or Wailoaloa and transfer you to Port Denarau where you will board our high-speed catamaran bound for the Yasawa Islands. You'll cruise through the Mamanuca and Yasawa Islands before disembarking at Mantaray Island Resort.
We have worked with the experienced team at Mantaray Island Resort to carefully choose dates that have a higher chance of manta rays coming to feed in the 'manta channel'. Following a briefing, you will board tender boats and be taken out to have the chance to swim and snorkel amongst the manta rays while they glide throughout this popular feeding ground. Lunch is provided at Mantaray Island Resort before our catamaran collects you again at 3pm for your return journey to Port Denarau.
