Getting there

From Velana International Airport (MLE)

Most visitors arrive at Velana International Airport (MLE) on Hulhulé Island near Malé. From there, you'll typically need to transfer to your final destination island. Since Manta Ray Maldives is a tour operator, they will likely arrange transportation to the relevant atoll or island where the manta ray excursions take place. This usually involves a combination of speedboats and potentially domestic flights, depending on the distance. * **Speedboat:** A common mode of transport for inter-island travel. Costs vary depending on the distance, but expect to pay around $30 for an hour. * **Seaplane:** For resorts and islands further from Malé, seaplanes are often used. These can range from $250 to $600 per person one way. * **Ferry:** Public ferries are available, with fares between MVR 30-75. Always confirm transfer details and costs directly with Manta Ray Maldives when booking your tour.
