Activities

Marine Biology Tour

Both Barefoot Kuata and Barefoot Manta Island Resorts features a Marine Centre for conservation, research, and educational purposes. The Marine Centre’s have their own qualified Marine Biologist, who’ll explain how it’s used in relation to marine life living off beachfront. You’ll learn the importance of coral to the overall marine ecosystem and crazy facts relating to marine life e.g. Nemo’s sex change antics and how barnacle genitalia size to body mass is the largest in the animal kingdom. Following the presentation, the marine biologist will take you on a guided snorkeling safari to see aspects of the marine science discussed including a visit to a coral growing nursery.
