Worth the money! Had an amazing trip on this two tank manta dive. The captain and guides Emily, Milo and Amy made the experience fun and enjoyable by being friendly, knowledgeable, passionate and easy going. We saw dolphins at sunset, followed by so many mantas on the dive! Plus there were tasty snacks, sandwiches, hot drinks and a hot shower rinse on board for after the night dive.
