Great day on the boat

Mega nice day spent on the boat. Not only did the crew make sure that we were allowed to have a really great experience with the manta rays, but they were also very careful with the animals. We had several snorkeling trips and saw not only the manta rays, but also turtles, reef sharks and much more. Everyone is super sweet and totally attentive. We had a great day and would go along again and again.

Had the most amazing experience swimming with 10 or more Manta Rays, as well a couple of Leopard Sharks. Also got to admire the coral and the many species of fish in the water. The guides were particularly informative and guided us through the 6 snorkel sessions. My thanks to Marina who look after this old git, as the current was strong at times! A decent lunch was also provided by the crew. The onboard professional photographer Laura took some great pictures of the Mantas, which we were able to purchase afterwards.

1 day earlier it was not yet clear until 2 pm whether there were enough guests, only 5, they wanted to leave open until 4:30 pm tour. Otherwise we could get 1 day later or full refund. Guy very nice. Then later received mail that everything clearly within itself had reported guests. So exactly 7:50 meeting point at the office which was 50 m from our pitch in the peoples caravan park. Super briefings, super help for me and my husband, over 60 and snorkeling newbies . Everything top and safe , always Eco Tours!!

My boyfriend and I did the manta ray eco tour and had the most unreal day. The staff were super friendly and personable and really knowledgeable. We saw manta rays, reef sharks, octopus and soooo many gorgeous little fish and corals. HIGHLY recommend this trip to anyone visiting coral bay, or just visit the area specifically for this. We will definitely be doing this again.
