Barefoot Manta Island
About this stay
Barefoot Manta is an eco-lodge on Drawaqa Island in the southern Yasawas, beside the channel where manta rays gather to feed for part of the year. Accommodation is simple and close to the beach. Days revolve around snorkeling, diving and the manta channel, and evenings are communal. It suits budget-conscious travelers and snorkelers who prioritize being in the water over room comforts. The Yasawa ferry from Port Denarau stops nearby, so it is easy to combine with other islands in the chain, and the lodge is a few hours from the mainland.
