Comments I was not at Rangali primarily to dive but I did a one tank afternoon dive most days and a couple of house reef dives. We saw mantas on 4 out of 6 dives, generally pretty close. We saw a few white tips, eagle rays and several turtles. I saw a whale shark on the morning whale shark snorkelling trip I went on.
The dive operation is very professional and full service. Good guides and dhoni crew.
The resort is very nice; very expensive with many restaurants and two spas.
