Manta Point (Version 8, superseded) (50MB)

Here’s Nusa Penida’s famous Manta Point. A manta ray cleaning station, where they come in to get serviced by all the little cleaner fish on the rock. It’s probably one of the best places to get very, very good, close encounters with mantas. Just hang around off to the sides of the rock and they’ll surely come past to have a look at you, often creaping up behind you and over your head. Nice. To the top right is the big Cleaning Station bommie/rock. It's the size of a bungalow, 4m deep on top, 12m around. Near the centre is the towers, that have several awesome swimthroughs. They're 10-13m tall, 5m on top, 15m around, 18m in the swimthroughs. Bottom left is the drop-off/wall. Molas can be found here, cleaning, in season. Very calm down there. It's 30m on the sand at the end of the reef. 20m on top. Heads only a little deeper to the middle left. Here’s the model so far, from the 8 scans/dives i’ve done.
