Snorkelling and scuba diving with manta rays tops the list of ‘must-do’ experiences for many who visit the Maldives and here at Kuredu in Lhaviyani Atoll manta season stretches from October through to March.

Every year hundreds of mantas visit the warm waters around Kuredu. So far, hundreds of different individuals have been identified by the Prodivers team in conjunction with Manta Trust. At the start of the season the majestic manta rays can be seen as they visit nearby cleaning stations and then later at feeding aggregation sites that are rich with plankton. When the mantas are known to be around our team at Prodivers schedule special manta search boats for snorkelling and diving – it’s an experience not to be missed.
