Seeing manta ray We work with the experienced team at Mantaray Island Resort to carefully choose dates according to various environmental factors that offer a higher chance of manta ray sightings in the ‘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.
Food and Drinks A delicious lunch at the ‘Manta Pizza Shack’ and a soft drink or water are included in your day trip and additional 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.
