Indonesia’s Manta Ray Bay Uncensored
Sadly, I have very little positive information to share about my experience at Manta Ray Bay on Nusa Penida other than it is a memorable experience for all the wrong reasons.
Let that sink in.
Indonesia is a beautiful country with a strong magnetic force to attract visitors worldwide; however, Indonesian efforts are largely non-existent (from what I saw) for any pollution control or conservation/clean-up efforts of the ocean. So I dove into a vivid turquoise sea with a mask and snorkel to face severe pollution and never-ending streams of trash and plastics in and around the waters of Bali.
The only reprieve is that swimming with Manta Rays on Komodo Island is significantly less polluted; however, there are fewer and smaller Manta Rays in that location.
Overall, swimming in Manta Ray Bay in Bali fosters environmental consciousness and creates memories that will last a lifetime. So take the chance to swim with manta rays and embark on a truly extraordinary underwater adventure.
