Diving at the Manta Point in Maldives A Magical World of Sublime Beauty

Endless stretches of clear blue ocean water, bathed in the surreal beauty of tropical sunny glory, where islands lay scattered like diamonds of the ocean, glistening and glimmering in their timeless white splendour are found in this land of sublime beauty and charm, the Maldives Islands, which can rightfully be called the ultimate holiday destination by those who love the fusion of sea and sun and pristine stretches of milky white shores. The beauty of these magical moments can be experienced while staying at Maldives luxury resorts such as Cocoa Island by COMO which is known for its luxury and comfort. While staying at this hotel, you will experience the finest standards of Maldivian hospitality while also indulging in the sheer pleasures of the world down under, equipped in your diving and snorkelling gear.

The surface beauty of Maldives is most wonderfully matched by the hidden splendours of its world that lies beneath the softly rippling waves of the sea. Rich in diverse marine life, this place has been a favourite among scuba divers since the days of old, who dive into her depths to explore and marvel at the rich and vibrant colour that is abundantly found here.

One of the more popular diving places among novices and experienced alike is the Manta Point which is located at the south east of Lankan Finolhu. Here beautiful mantas can be spotted in their numbers in the southwest monsoon season spanning from April to November. To the mantas, this place is magical, as it is to the mortals who dive beneath the surface to admire them, as they find this place to be a feeding ground rich with plankton, as well as a cleaning station given the presence of the shoals of small fish that feed here. The depth of this point is around 15 meters giving one ample time for exploring. The mantas will be seen hovering quite close to the divers, gracefully swimming in the place they love. Divers are indeed advised not to frighten these wonderful creatures by attempting to touch or chase them, as they may choose never to return to this place of wonder.
