• MANTA RAYS

    26.–27. kesäk. 2024, Indonesia ⋅ ☁️ 27 °C

    - Ollie woke up early at 7am to get ready for diving. Headed to the dive centre for 7.30am to get briefed whilst anas the lazy twat slept in to 11am
    - We were going to Manta and Crystal bay for the 1st and 2nd dives.
    - Got in the speedboat and travelled for 40 minutes along beautiful vertical coastline.
    - At the first dive site we got prepared and dove in. After 5 minutes we immediately were surrounded by manta rays! There were around 8-10 of varying sizes and one mother that was pregnant. The wingspan ranged from 2-4 meters and they were so graceful in the water. Lots of videos to come!
    - After this we drove to the next dive site, crystal point, where we were surrounded by hundreds of fish of varying species. Notable sightings included; Mauray eel, frog fish, seahorses, lobsters and a baby turtle!
    - After completing both our dives we headed back to the dive shop.
    - As ollie managed to convince anas to join in diving, he had to complete a pool date starting at 2pm. This was very funny to watch from Ollies perspective 🤣
    - Anas took a while getting used to breathing underwater with the scuba kit, but figured it out and completed his training with basic skills.
    - After completing this and preparing for the next diving day, we drove to a nearby beach bar at the south West of the island. The views were spectacular and in our famished state we both ate 2 mains each.
