16 Things We Can Learn From Giant Manta Rays Fun Love
Seeing a manta ray is a spiritual experience, to say the least.
I'm going to just come out and say it: manta rays are pretty much the coolest underwater creatures.
They're like majestic aliens who just do their thing while hypnotizing you with their grace.

Luckily, I got the chance to go on a night snorkel to try and meet one of these beauties IRL.
I went out with the people who helped make Nat Geo WILD special WILD Hawaii which premieres March 23 at 8 p.m. ET.
Basically, you go out at night and hold onto a foam surfboard which has lights attached to it in order to attract the plankton that manta rays eat. It's pretty magical but very important you go with experienced guides like the one who took us, Keller Laros. He has been studying the creatures for 30+ years and knows how to keep them safe while enjoying their presence.
Be patient: manta rays, like most great things in life, take some time to get to you.
