About Manta Alley

The tiny rocky island in the South Komodo bay are great for snorkeling and diving, with sometimes lots of manta rays (September to January), even if there are no mantas it is a very good dive, very large giant trevally, sharks, beautiful coral and a very high diversity of other invertebrate life in relatively shallow water (5 to 20 m). The water can be cool in this area but never too cold to dive. Only little damage has been done to the corals in this area and the damaged corals here seem to be reviving naturally and rapidly. This site is also current affected. The best entry point is at the northeast side of the rock near a coral mound 3-5 meters below the surface.
