Snorkeling with Manta Rays
Barefoot Manta Island Resort’s location is unique, only a 1-minute boat ride from a Manta Ray feeding site. From April - October Fiji Manta Rays feed in a narrow nutrient-rich channel of water between Drawaqua Island (Barefoot Manta Island Resort Fiji's location) and Naviti Island. With nature there are no guarantees but the Manta Rays are usually there every day during the season.
