About This Dive Spot

Lily Manta Point features a coral block located at a depth of 19 meters, surrounded by sandy areas. This site is home to a variety of corals and is frequented by cleaner wrasses, which attract reef mantas that come to be cleaned. Divers can observe the mantas from the sand without disturbing the coral ecosystem. It is important to maintain a respectful distance from the cleaning station, as approaching too closely may cause the manta rays to leave the area. In addition to mantas, divers may encounter various species of coral fish, stingrays, and eagle rays.
