Freedive with Mantas

Underwater view of a manta ray swimming in clear blue water, with sunlight streaming down from the surface.

Freediving with Mantas has to be one of the most beautiful experiences that you can have as a Freediver, and Nusa Penida is the perfect place for freediving with Mantas.

If you know where to look they are always there, especially if you avoid the big groups of SCUBA divers. That is why we charter our own boat and only dive with Freedivers and Snorkelers.

This one day trip is a favorite with our students as even without the Mantas it’s a beautiful journey along the rugged Penida coastline.
