Swimming with sting rays - Bora-Bora

Posted 15 July 2011

Early Friday morning we went to the outside reef to snorkel and we were lucky to see some lemon sharks although they were deeper. Afterwards we went with our dinghy to swim with the sting rays and the experience was just great. I was a bit scared as these sting rays are quite big about 3 to 4 feet in width. A tourist boat was already there and they came prepared with food to feed the sting rays. I was not brave enough, but Dinis had a great time feeding the sting rays. The rays came up towards your face and took the food from your fingers with their mouth which is on the bottom. I did touch the rays and they felt soft somewhat like leather. There were about 12 sting rays swimming around us. Took lots of photos.
