Manta point is together with Crystal Bay, Gamat Bay and Toyapakeh the most popular dive site in Nusa Penida. Manta sightings here are very common with some very large animals being spotted. This site is very open to the elements so sometimes heavy winds and strong currents make it impossible to visit this dive site.

Manta point has an amazingly limestone cliffs that descend straight into the ocean. The swell can be stupendous, sometimes making entry impossible by mid-morning. The water is between 22 and 26 degrees quite cold because it comes in from the ocean. You may also see other pelagics such as tuna and tiger mackerel.
