    Default Diving with Manta @ Koh Bon, Thailand

    We had such a good time diving with Manta that we'd like to share with folks our video. This one is the uncut version, 3.5 minutes clip of the Manta swimming around us.



    For the entire Similan Islands trip video, you can check it out at

    Enjoy!

    Yep, it's ~3.5- 4 metres (11.5 - 13.1 feet) wing tip to wing tip?

    THAT IS AMAZING!!

    I have seen a school of rays go overhead once and I was blown away. They were only 2-3 feet across. This must have been one of the coolest experiences you have ever had.

    Indeed it was one of my best trips (yet)!

    That is great Turtle. I know we all work very hard all year to spend a relatively short time away on vacation (hopefully diving), and it if wonderful when we have an even more amazing time then we had planned.
