A Giant Pacific Manta Ray, Manta birostris, hovers immediately over a scuba diver and enjoys the bubbles coming from his scuba equipment caressing her stomach. Photo taken at "The Boiler", a seamount in the remote Revillagigedo Archipelago, roughly 220 miles south / southwest of Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. This is the only location in the world where Manta Rays are known to exhibit this behavior.
