Usually, they arrive at the Fushivaru Thila cleaning station in late September, and then move to the lagoons in the west of the atoll, very close to <strong>Komandoo Maldives<\/strong>, at the start of the northeast monsoon, sometime in November. We generally have the pleasure to snorkel and dive with manta rays regularly until March.<\/p>\n<p>Due to the ocean\u2019s unpredictability, you can\u2019t always get what you want, but if you try, sometimes, well, you might find just what you came to see!<\/p>\n<p>Be sure to check in daily to our Facebook page and Instagram for the latest updates, and be sure to sign up for just about every snorkelling and diving trip when at Komandoo to increase your chances of seeing these beauties yourself!<\/p>\n<div class=\"avia-iframe-wrap\">\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Manta rays around Kuredu, Komandoo and Hurawalhi in the Maldives\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/3x4pha99V9c?start=13&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Komandoo Maldives offers an excellent All-Inclusive holiday which can be tailored to best suit your needs.
