The Friendliest Mantas in the World - Socorro, Mexico 2018 - Plus Fish ID

I spent a week on board the Nautilus Belle Amie in January 2018, diving the Revillagigedo Islands (Socorro), Mexico. The diving was 250 miles off the coast on the Pacific side of Mexico. This area is famous for incredibly close Manta interactions, along with very curious Bottlenose Dolphins, 10 species of shark, Whale Sharks & Humpback Whales (when in season). As you can see from the video, these Giant (Oceanic) Mantas are VERY curious and come right up to the divers. Not once did I swim towards any of the Mantas, but in every case they came right up to me and so close I could easily touch them if I wanted to (I didn't though). To dive with something so big and beautiful like these Mantas is a wonderful and emotional experience. I've dived with over 150 Manta's to date, but nothing will ever top the extremely intimate experience of having the largest Mantas on the planet swim past me only inches away and looking right at me!! Absolutely priceless!!!
