You’ll also dive hammerhead and tiger shark sites, offering adrenaline‑filled encounters for experienced divers. Between dives, visit a local Manta Trust research center to learn about conservation efforts. August–September sees occasional rain, but underwater visibility remains good thanks to nutrient‑rich waters. Bring a dry bag and deck shoes for slippery conditions on the boat. This expedition suits adventure‑seekers comfortable with currents and big‑animal encounters.

  • Nitrox is unavailable; dives are on air.
  • Night dives may not be available if conditions are unsafe.
  • This trip is designed for advanced divers and above due to challenging dive conditions.
