Manta Ray Madness at Ono Island, Fiji

Tuesday, January 19th, 2010 by Clayton

Just when we all thought Manta Rays found another home away from the Astrolabe Reef, BAM! manta ray sightings 2 days in a row right off Paradise Beach on Ono Island.

The first day, the gang spotted their wing tips coming through the water’s surface.  As the boat was coming in for their surface interval after diving at Split Rock, they spotted the manta rays feeding in the water.  Kevin made sure to take full advantage of the moment, exclaiming “STOP THE BOAT! STOP THE BOAT!”  Kevin, Jason, and the rest of the crew quickly readied their mask, snorkel, and fins to have a swim with the manta rays for more than 30 minutes.
