Here’s your chance to swim with manta rays! Manta Bommie gets its name as it acts as a cleaning station for manta rays. Other wildlife you can see at this dive location include eagle rays, bull rays, reef sharks, blacktip sharks, white tip sharks, leopard sharks, tawny nurse sharks, hammerhead sharks, turtles, anemones and of course nemo the clownfish and humpback whales during whale season of July to October.
This is a great spot to take photos as you’ll be surrounded by beautiful, shallow coral gardens with a variety of different corals and colours.
The Manta Bommie has a sloping sand bottom with scattered bommies throughout and allows for an amazing drift dive. Let the current on the outer edge transport you through the water. You’ll feel like you’re flying and be able to cover a long distance from the drift dive.

Drift diving is a scuba diving technique that allows divers to be transported by water currents. Be transported by the water movement caused by the tide under the guidance of our dive master and skipper onboard our custom dive boat ‘Underworld’.
You can cover a much larger area of reef in a single dive, so you’ll see more marine life than you would if you were diving at a spot with a smaller footprint. In areas of strong current, you’re likely to encounter more pelagic animals as well.
