Manta Point – The Snorkeling Jewel of Komodo Tours from Labuan Bajo

Manta Point is one of the most breathtaking highlights of our Komodo tours from Labuan Bajo, Flores, and Bali. Located in the northern waters of Komodo National Park, this famous snorkeling paradise is known for its incredible chance to swim alongside the majestic manta rays — graceful creatures that glide effortlessly through the crystal-clear ocean. Visiting Manta Point is more than just a snorkeling stop; it’s a once-in-a-lifetime encounter with nature’s underwater elegance.

The real thrill at Manta Point comes when you spot these gentle giants circling in the blue. The nutrient-rich currents bring large amounts of plankton — their main food source — attracting mantas year-round. Our private Komodo tours ensure that guests have the best possible conditions to experience this unforgettable moment safely. Before entering the water, your guide carefully observes the area to spot the rays. Once they appear, confident swimmers can dive in and share the water with these peaceful ocean wanderers.

(Important: Currents can be strong here. We recommend only experienced swimmers enter the water, while others may enjoy watching the manta rays from the boat’s deck.)

The boat trip to Manta Point is an adventure in itself. On your way, you’ll pass through a spectacular seascape of emerald islands and turquoise lagoons. Nearby destinations like Taka Makasar, Gili Lawa Laut, Padar Island, and Rinca Island add even more beauty to your journey. Whether you’re joining a Komodo tour or a private Komodo cruise, each view along the route feels like sailing through a living postcard.

Even if the manta rays don’t appear, Manta Point remains one of the most stunning snorkeling sites in the park, home to colorful coral gardens and tropical fish. At sunrise or sunset, the atmosphere here is simply magical — the light dancing on the waves, the calm breeze, and the sense of being completely immersed in nature. It’s a perfect place to pause, breathe, and feel the untamed beauty of Komodo.

No Komodo tour or Flores tour is complete without a visit to Manta Point. It’s a destination that blends adventure, tranquility, and awe in one remarkable experience. Whether you travel from Labuan Bajo or Bali, our private Komodo tours offer the flexibility to explore this enchanting site your way — guided by expert local crews who share deep insights into the wildlife and ecosystem of Komodo National Park.

Manta Point is not just a snorkeling spot; it’s a symbol of the raw, natural wonder that makes Komodo tours truly unforgettable.
