Overview

There are 2 main spots where you can see manta rays in Nusa Penida - Manta Bay and Manta Point. The first one is the closest and most of the snorkeling trips are going there. Usually, it is very chaotic and messy, there are a lot of people and boats. The further spot is Manta Point. It’s a much longer journey but you might get more chances to see mantas and fewer people. Manta Point is much more recommended and this is what we offer in our trips. The trip is guided by professional freediving instructors! On this half-day trip, we will bring you to 3 different and very attractive snorkeling points near Nusa Penida. Point #1. Manta Point Freeding and snorkeling with Manta Rays. Manta Rays can usually be seen right from the surface. Point #2. Gamat Bay or Toyapakeh Wall Coral gardens at shallow depths between 2-5 meters or drift along underwater wall. Point #3. SD Point Relaxed drifting along colorful corals. High chance to see turtles.

Meeting points

Freedive Nusa - Freediving School
Jl. Ped - Buyuk No.Desa, Ped, Kec. Nusa Penida, Nusa Penida, Bali 80771, Indonesia

Open in Google Maps

The trip starts from Nusa Penida island, not from the Bali mainland! You have to come to Nusa Penida on your own a day before the trip or on the same day by the first speedboat from Sanur. The Freedive Nusa is located at Nusa Penida in the village called Desa Ped in front of Coco Penida Cafe.

End point

This activity ends back at the meeting point.

Itinerary

We meet at the freediving school (Freedive Nusa on Google Maps) at 10 am, give you all the equipment (including wetsuits and long fins if needed), and provide a detailed briefing about Manta Rays, rules of interaction, and safety. Then a comfortable speedboat will pick us up right from the school. Our professional freediving instructors will be on the boat as in-water guides. You will visit 3 different and very attractive spots. #1. Manta Point Swimming with Manta Rays. If there are no mantas in Manta Point, our crew will try to find them in our spots. #2. Toyapakeh Wall Beautiful underwater wall full of fish and colorful corals. #3. SD Point Relaxed drifting along the shallow reef. High chance of seeing turtles. IMPORTANT NOTICE 1) The route and meeting time might be adjusted to weather conditions! 2) Please, understand that this is wild nature. Our crew and instructors always do their best to find mantas, but we can't guarantee to encounter them! 3) Please, be mindful that the water might be very choppy! Have a light breakfast and take seasickness pills in the morning (we will provide them). You must be confident enough to swim in the open ocean!

a unique experience that I will remember for the rest of my life

Published on Oct, 2024

it was an amazing experience! we swam with manta rays and i will never forget it. the boat driver did everything so that we could enjoy the trip. our instructor was always next to us in the water and i felt safe! the equipment was new and clean. the wetsuit really helped me remember this trip as comfortable. we saw the most beautiful places and enjoyed the underwater world. i highly recommend taking a mini freediving course at this school the day before manta point. we did exactly that! it helped us so much in this unique experience. this mini course was a revelation for us. our instructor masha helped us master the basic level of freediving. my boyfriend was afraid of water, and by the end of the lesson he was already diving upside down 5 meters! it was an amazing experience! thanks to your school!

Fantastic and well organised trip!

Published on Sep, 2024

An amazing trip! Reyna and Tony were fantastic guides. The trip felt very well organised and professional. We were given a safety briefing beforehand and they took great care when giving us our equipment. The manta rays were just incredible. They also took us to some other sites to see beautiful corals and fish afterwards.

Highlight of our trip

Published on Aug, 2024

Easy to book the trip. You will get on a boat with a small group of around 5-10 people instead of 20-30 like the other diving schools. The instructors seaech some spots which are not as crowded as the classical ones. We saw about 10 mantas and had them for ourselfs. The instructors are encouraged to give you the best experience. Keep it on you to do list at Nusa!

A Memorable Highlight of our Trip

Published on Jul, 2024

Our freedive and snorkelling trip was fantastic! Our guides Roberto and Gaston were really helpful and kind, especially for us as first time freedivers. All the equipment was ready and well-organised when we got there and I loved that they provided sea-sickness tablets and ginger tea on the journey. Manta Point was amazing and we saw heaps of mantas. I appreciated that our guides advised us how to approach and treat the mantas so that they would feel safe. It is clear other tour groups do not do this and I was happy that our guides took the protection of the mantas seriously, even stopping people who tried to touch them. The other stops were beautiful and we even saw a turtle. It was an amazing day all round and I would recommend it to everyone. We also got professional photos by Gaston and that was worth it too.

Amazing Tour with excellent guide!

Published on Jul, 2024

We had such an amazing time at Free Dive Nusa participating in the manta ray tour! We had picked this particular company as we wanted a more ethical way of swimming with the manta! We had Ray as our tour guide.. he was so friendly and welcoming! He sat us down beforehand for a short briefing, which allowed us to learn a bit more about what we would see the manta rays doing. He also taught us how to be respectful of these animals, and how we would position ourselves to minimise disruption of their natural environment. We saw so many manta and had the best time! Ray also took some really cool photos and videos on my GoPro for me! Additionally, he taught us some extra skills in how to equalise underwater and swim further! We couldn’t recommend this tour more! It felt great knowing we were with a company that wants to protect the environment and I would definitely tour with them again in the future.
