Diving is possible year-round when daily sea state and tides permit. Cooler thermoclines and the main mola mola observation season are generally June or July through October, while manta rays may be present year-round; wildlife encounters are never guaranteed.
Typical conditions can vary on the day of your dive. Confirm current conditions with the dive team before entering the water.
