World Manta Day

My friend, and virtual dive buddy, over at ScubaHankNYC at https://scubahanknyc.com/ just informed me it is world manta day. I LOVE my rays, all of them. It doesn’t matter if they are southern stingrays, eagle rays, bat rays or mantas. They are so graceful and magical. But the BIG, graceful mantas are really special.

Southern Stingrays. I took these in Belize and Grand Cayman. This one, obviously our divemaster took for us.

Eagle Rays. We see so many eagle rays in Cozumel, particularly from November-March. I did not take these other pictures unfortunately. We have killed so many underwater cameras.

Bat Rays. We saw a bunch of these in Cabo San Lucas and we saw one in Barbados too.

Manta Rays. We dived with a whole bunch in Kona, Hawai’i. They are so beautiful, majestic and graceful.

I wish everyday was manta day. 🙂

  6. I love these photos, they are so beautiful. Like butterflies of the sea. I have never been scuba diving, my husband has. My husband taught me how to snorkel with we were staying on an island called Ischia in Italy, and then again when we stay at an island called Spanish lookout Caye in Belize. That was years ago and I believe the island has been sold a couple time since we stayed there. I believe a university owned it at one time too, It’s so peaceful under water.
