Local Intel For Lily Manta Point

Community notes to help plan your visit.

Scuba Diving

Scuba teams usually descend onto the sand beside the coral block and stay still so mantas can continue their cleaning passes undisturbed.

Freediving

Freedivers can use the site when mantas are active near the upper water column, but surface support and disciplined positioning matter around the station.

Snorkeling

Snorkelers can enjoy the site when mantas rise higher in the water column, provided the boat team manages spacing and drift carefully.
