Located near the mouth of Miil Channel, Manta Ridge is the dive site that made Yap famous among divers. The gentle mantas range in size from four to fourteen feet, and the shallow area of the ridge provides divers and snorkelers alike with a front row seat to an incredible underwater show. Resident schools of trevallys, black snapper, parrotfish, sharks, moray eels, turtles, eagle rays, mantas, and even dolphins and mahi-mahi are encountered at Manta Ridge. Travel to this site is through the center of the island, by way of the mangrove-lined German Channel.
