    Wildlife

    Diet

    The Manta Ray feeds on planktonic animals and small nektonic animals (small fish). It digs the sandy bottom with its cephalic horns to force hiding pray to come out and then swallows them thanks to it wide open mouth, the cephalic horns directing the food towards its mouth. Then the water is filtered and exits via the gills. The smaller animals are kept to be eaten. This feeding habit is also found with whale sharks and basking sharks.

    Behavior

    The Manta Ray leads a deep sea existence but also frequents the shallow waters, close to the shores and in sheltered bays. It is an easily lead animal, living in gangs of several individuals or in couples, rarely alone. We can often see them jumping out of the water, particularly to give birth to their young.

    Flora

    The cleaning stations of Manta Bay and Bali Manta Point are located in several bays in the South of Nusa Penida island. Soft corals are laying there but this is not the point of interest, the Manta Rays are!
