When these gentle giants approached, one could not help but reach out to them. The mantas really seemed to enjoy the the experience and would return again and again for a light belly stroking. This video was shot in 1997 while diving from the Solomar V in the Socorros Islands. The trip was arranged by Steve Frink of Waterhouse Tours & Reservations as one of his MFT Photo Tours. (Steve's great trips made it easy to garner us as loyal clients.)
