Manta Rays

(Manta birostris)

Width to 670 cm, commonly 400 cm. Circum-global in warm temperate and tropical waters. Surface to 30 m.

Saw so many Mantas on this trip we started to become blas'e about their arrival, if that's possible.

Apparently 2003 was a very good year for sightings, and interaction in this area.

Location: Maldives Baa Atoll
