Dive with Manta Rays in Komodo

By La Galigo             Apr 23, 2025

Komodo isn't just about dragons. It's where manta rays glide: graceful, massive, and utterly hypnotic in the blue.

Komodo's nutrient-rich currents are manta magnets. It's one of the best places on earth to dive with them, no question.

June and July, baby. That's prime time. But if you're lucky, they’ll show up year-round, just to keep you hooked.

Manta Point delivers big wingspans and big thrills. Manta Alley? More intimate. Think of it as a dance floor with fewer tourists.

Komodo’s currents are no joke. But mantas love the rush. Drift dives here are wild, like flying underwater with giants.

Hop on a liveaboard. Wake up to the sea, dive all day, and swap stories over cold beers under starlit skies.

Reef hook, check. Good buoyancy, check. A wide-angle lens? You’ll want proof when a 5-meter manta glides by.

No touching, no chasing. Stay low, let them come to you. Mantas are curious, give them a reason to trust you.

Yeah, mantas are the headliners. But Komodo brings sharks, turtles, and technicolor reefs into the spotlight too.
