Additional Information

Manta Point, as the name suggests, is a popular dive site for divers to get an intimate view of manta rays in their natural surroundings. Divers get the opportunity to swim alongside these magnificent creatures, observe them feeding in real-time, and photograph them from a safe distance.

The journey typically commences from Sanur, ideally before 9 in the morning, heading towards the southern area of Nusa Penida island. This is the point where the thrill of a dive safari in search of manta rays and mola-mola begins with the next three dives.

Top on the list of my dive experiences - I can't recommend Henry and his team, especially dive guide Kim enough. They are friendly, professional and very attentive to the diver's needs. I have never dived Nusa Penida or seen Mola Mola and I didn't really expect to see them. I went expecting Manta Rays, but hoping for Mola Mola. On my first two dives I saw two Mola Molas, one at about 20mtrs which we managed to have on our own for some time, but it was at the end of the dive and air was getting low. Then on that dive at the safety stop we had another one nearby. I was stoked. I decided to do another day out with Bali Diving and Kim and on this day we saw 3. The first one was crowded with divers, so Kim suggested we go elsewhere and we came across another at about 19 mtrs we had a 20 minute interlude with just the two of us, no strobes on the camera so it was happy for us to hang out, I got within a mete of it and some great photos. We then found another on our following dive, which we were alone with. I still can't beleive my luck, but I do wonder if the guide Kim was just a Mola Magnet or a Mola whisperer. Either way, I felt blessed. Padang Bai was great for Macro and Kim got some great shots for me on my camera. Nice lunch as well. THANKS Team :-)
