Diving with Manta rays
There’s a few cleaning station around Raja Ampat where Manta rays are spotted.
Soul scuba divers offer trips to Arborek where you have: Manta slope, Manta ridge and Manta sandy, and Wai island where it is the Manta Wai cleaning station.
During the manta season (typically mid November to April), Manta rays comes to this place to eat on plankton which it is their main food source.
The manta rays are attracted to the nutrient rich waters that arrive in Raja Ampat during those months. This event also lower down our visibility but you can still have +20 meters visibility.
Manta ridge - Advanced
Is our favorite manta site as it has a beautiful reef along much of the site, but it is only for advanced divers. We provide reef hooks for every diver and most of the time you are hooked in, dive guides will help you to hook in the good spot, near to cleaning station.
Manta Wai - Beginner
Cleaning station in Manta Wai is where we get the first sight of the Mantas. Shallow 18 meter dive with mild to moderate currents.
First dive site we do on this trip is plane wreck where you need to be advanced diver, wreck lies on 30 meters. Open water divers can also join to this trip and enjoy the Wai reef.
Manta slope - Moderate dive site
Manta Slope also has a higher variety of coral structure to enjoy and is an easier dive.
Manta Sandy - Beginner dive site
Cleaning station is protected by rocky reef, hence that divers cannot pass, giving other option of diving around the other local dive sites you can witness Manta rays such as; Blue magic, Lao Lao, Cape Kri, Ransiwar and Sawandarek.

Things to keep in mind when diving with Manta Rays
Cleaning stations are areas for Manta rays to go and get cleaned of from parasites by different reef fishies like surgeon fishies. Its important to follow briefings of your guide and respect their natural cleaning station and give them peace to have their spa moment.
Manta rays are filter feeders and they are harmless to humans. Its forbidden to touch or harass a Manta rays. When you stay still, they will come super close to you, sometimes even touching tip of your head with their bellies. Even when they come super close to you, respect the animal and don’t try to touch them. We give them space to respect their natural habitat’s, no one would like to be harass when you having massage or spa treatment.
People with cameras is prohibited to use flashlights, this powerful strobo or flash light will harm the vision of the manta rays, you wouldn’t like to get blinded by strong lights while you having your relax moment
2 morning dives 1,600,000 IDR (we normally do one of the Manta locations and the 2nd dive either Arborek or West Mansuar)
Single afternoon dive to Manta spots is 850,000 IDR
Then if the afternoon dive is your 3rd dive then it's 750,000 IDR
We subtract 100.000 IDR per dive for divers with their own equipment (BCD and regulator required). Keep in mind that the prices are per day; the more dives you do per day with us the cheaper each individual dive will cost.
