Dive it Mild, Dive it Wild, or somewhere in between. That’s what the ultimate drift diving experience with Manta Lodge, Tobago is all about. It’s not a place divers talk about much, but smart divers don’t want everyone knowing about the underwater environment of Tobago. But we’re taking this opportunity to “spread the word”.
The Ultimate Tobago Dive Experience: Tobago’s effortless drift diving is unlike any to be found in the Caribbean. The best diving is centered at sites offshore Manta’s Speyside location, where the waters are home to many species of corals, sponges, tropical fish and turtles. The nutrient rich waters and abundance of small fish also combine to attract a large number of the “Giants of the Drift” – predators and filter feeders including the Great Hammerhead Shark and the Giant Manta Ray.
From Wet Suits to “Wellies:” Leave the wet suit hanging up one morning, slip on a pair of rented “Wellies” (traditional high top rubber boots) and follow our guide deep into the Main Ridge Rain Forest, the oldest natural reserve in the western hemisphere. Tobago has a reported 6000 species of plants and animals, including one of the highest densities of bird species in the world in a mere 116 square miles of land. Nature & Birding Tours may be added on to any Dive Package stay, or we can custom tailor a package for you with any combination of dive and nature tours to fit the divergent interest of you and your traveling companions.
Manta Lodge is a cozy 22 room property located south of the main hurricane belt. It features a number of ‘big’ amenities – the Green Moray Bar & Restaurant, soft sand beach, Tobago Dive Experience full service dive facility, swimming pool, reading nook with a multi-lingual lending library and walking routes. It also offers a “down home” feeling of intimacy and warmth that surrounds you from the minute you arrive to the day you depart. Socializing at Manta Lodge frequently centers around the Green Moray Restaurant, where guests gather for breakfast, lunch and extraordinary dinners.
