Loc: Wollongong, Australia 		What an amazing experience. Here is a video that I took with a still picture camera of a manta ray circling me at Tikehau. Please excuse the focus variations as the still cameras seem to struggle underwater.

Loc: Minneapolis, MN 		Gary-
That is so incredibly cool that the manta was that close! Most people wait a lifetime to glimpse one, let along get a drive by.
The manta made the huge triggers seem boring.

Loc: Wollongong, Australia 		I could have touched that manta, but it is not the go. But I love mantas and that was my close encounter that I will never forget. Very cool.
