FIND AN OPERATOR

Manta Expeditions is the first port of call for sustainable liveaboard and land-based manta dive and snorkel trips. They put manta research and education at the heart of their trips and are closely affiliated with the Manta Trust - you may even have one of our researchers on your trip!

Below is a list of Responsible Manta Tour Operators, who have pledged to incorporate our Swim with Mantas: Code of Conduct into their excursions - including, for example, the use of our film and 10-Step Guide.

We update the list of Operators regularly, so if you're an operator that wants to be included, please register with us so we can get in touch and learn more about your operation.

If you're a tourist and have some comments regarding the operators on this list, please let us know about you’re experience by filling in the feedback form below.

*Disclaimer. We award this certification to operators who have pledged to incorporate our Swim with Mantas Code of Conduct into their operations. Whilst we carry out some cursory due diligence to check that the operator has a good reputation, we cannot guarantee that they have responsible and safe operations. This certification demonstrates their commitment to using our Swim with Mantas resources and nothing more. If you have concerns about safety or unethical business practices related to any of the operators listed on this page, please contact us. Similarly, if you use any of these operators and discover that they are not abiding by our Swim with Mantas Code of Conduct or using our resources please report it to us so that we can investigate.

Our Base Partners stand out for their extensive role in supporting the Manta Trust's charitable mission and conservation goals. Thanks to these groups, we have several research bases around the world, where we are able to spearhead local research, conservation, and education initiatives focused around mantas and the marine environment. With dedicated Manta Trust staff on-site, you can be sure our partners ensure their manta tourism excursions are run sustainably, in a way that minimises human disturbance on these gentle giants.
