About Manta Rays & The Manta Trust
Manta rays are the gentle giants of the ocean, growing up to seven meters wide. Despite their size and grace, they face threats from overfishing and habitat loss. Manta Trust’s mission is to safeguard these majestic creatures through research, education, and global collaboration. With projects spanning 21 countries, we aim to inspire change and protect the world’s oceans.
TRANSFORMATIVE TEAM BUILDING WITH PURPOSE
Imagine your team strengthening bonds while contributing to ocean conservation in breathtaking locations like:
So far, we have hosted 11 research expeditions, engaging 200 corporate employees who emerged with new skills, stronger connections, and unforgettable memories
What We’ve Achieved Together
