Three Sisters Komodo - Komodo

Magic Mountain is a seamount that barely breaks the surface in Raja Ampat. We’ve often found ourselves in the middle of a manta show here, sometimes with over ten of them circling the cleaning stations. The dive usually means settling onto a coral ridge, then just watching them glide overhead. Beyond the mantas, the corals here are healthy, full of fusiliers and schooling reef fish. It's a shallow dive, maxing out around 7 meters, so you get plenty of bottom time, perfect for photographers or anyone who just wants to soak it all in.
