MANTA TRUST

MALDIVES

Tam Sawers , the Maldives project leader and has been working with the Manta Trust since 2014. She remotely coordinates a highly skilled team of researchers in the country, who are based at seven different locations.

As a yacht owner or guest, you can dive into the underwater realm of the mantas and learn about their social behaviour, diet, ocean health, and how to identify them by their markings by working with marine biologists from the Manta Trust. By offering your vessel as a platform for research, you can support the effort to protect these magnificent creatures from overfishing, pollution, habitat loss, and climate change, which are the leading causes of the decline in their population.
