Comments The manta dive is a hit or miss with any of the dive ops. Theres always the possibility that they wont show up, as in our case - but that is certainly not the operators fault. I thought Jacks was good but there were a couple of inexperienced divers on our boat that really could have used the extra help and didnt really get it. For more advanced divers, they were more than adequate.
