Ocean Trilogy

Three trips, one price, arranged around your stay: the early manta search, the turtle reef, and a morning on a sandbank. USD 169 per person.

Three outings in one package

The Ocean Trilogy brings together Manta Encounter, Turtle Point Snorkelling and Sand Bank Escape for USD 169 per person. Booked individually, the three trips total USD 203.

The three trips

  • Manta Encounter, 07:00 to about 08:30. Out early to where the crews have been seeing mantas, and into the water from the boat if one is there.
  • Turtle Point Snorkelling, 09:00 to 10:30. Snorkelling above a reef the boats go to for turtles.
  • Sand Bank Escape, usually 09:30 to 11:00. Swimming and sitting on a shared sandbank with the sea all round it.

Each is exactly the trip you would book on its own, at its usual hour, with the same dependence on the weather. Mantas and turtles are wild and no sighting comes with the price.

Fitting them in

Two of the three are snorkelling from a boat and the third is swimming off a sandbank, so we ask how comfortable everyone is in open water before we schedule anything. Three trips across a stay works best with several nights to fit them in.

Once we know your dates, the team lays the three out with you, around your days and the conditions. If one of them cannot run, we look for another day during your stay first. If no day works, you get an alternative trip or a discount on the package.

If you would rather choose your own

The three here are fixed. The Marine Lover Pass swaps in the longer manta trip and adds the Dolphin Safari and a picnic island. The 3-Day Adventure Pass lets you pick any five of nine.
