Where am I going to dive with Mantas?

[Mike Veitch]

January is mating season here in Yap....for the mantas that is...

Awesome diving with up to 30 mantas in a train, i would shoot for the end of the month. Mating season Jan-April.
For the non diver, the mantas are close to the surface and easily seen snorkeling. Kayaking, land/culture tours....

Try Puerto Vallarta. We have lots of encounters with big Mantas at a lot of the dive sites there.

diver denis it cool in PV ive dove PV meny times you do see some mantas not like yap at the cleaning station this man wants to see mantas dont have him go to PV for a disapointment i know you are trying to promote your friend biz out there but dont do the man that way well if you want to see other life pargo, mantas But not often very scarce its a flip of a coin, perit fish, turtles , lots of colerful life out at PV , and when you are spending big buck to vacation and you want to see mantas yap.
if you want to see mantas yap cleaning station look up "yap divers" thay will take care of you also sharks vally of the sarks ask to go there now you will see meny world war 2 remenence do not take then out thay will hold court then and there and posibly kick you from the island enjoy
enjoy your hunt to be with the megnificent creter

Hi Gandhi. You should come to PV in March and April when we see Mantas almost every day. It was good to talk to you before you left and we will dive together the next time you are down. I'm leaving for Yap and Palau for a month in the middle of November. I know you were there and it sounds great. I've been in touch with Mike Veitch and will be diving with him.

Horseback riding vs. manta diving!?! The choice would be easy for me!

Hello again Gandhi. You're right, I have not been to Yap and Mike Veitch has told me it's great there during January when they start mating. I'll be in Yap the last week of November and then at the end of January to compare. I'm afraid I won't be in PV over Christmas as our Yap, Palau, Truk trip will end on December 22nd and I'll be in Canada until the 10th of January. Let Gio know when you will be back in PV and we'll dive. We can split the cost of the boat as I know you always go private. Take care, Dennis.
