Meet Manta Ray advocates James & Martina Wing

Educating the world about the gentle giants of the oceans

Share the Experience

Manta rays are beautiful and majestic animals that have a life-changing effect on people who meet them. We share this magic with you.

Save the Mantas

Swimming with manta rays puts everything in perspective. We are doing everything we can to protect the mantas, so future generations can experience their transformational power.

Protect the Oceans

We empower people to take action and protect not just the mantas, but their whole ecosystem and oceans all around the world. NOW is the time to take action.

Raise Awareness

But manta rays are becoming threatened by pollution, and badly regulated tourism activities. We raise awareness about safe and sustainable ways to enjoy the rich marine life around Hawaii.

Spreading the word about Manta Rays

We’re James and Martina James Wing, and we’re the driving forces behind Manta Ray Advocates. We want to reach as many people as possible to raise awareness and spread knowledge about manta rays.

Everything we do is designed to protect our gentle giants

We share information about manta rays in any way we can: with articles and videos on this website, our ebook about manta rays, a biweekly newsletter, and of course by sharing our experience daily with guests on the manta ray moonlight swim.

We founded a non-profit organization called Hawaii Ocean Watch to educate the public about safe and sustainable ways to enjoy the rich marine life around Hawaii. We also distribute a free guide to inform people about different ways to enjoy swimming with manta rays along the coast of Kona on the Big Island.

And if you cannot travel to the mantas, we have the manta rays come to you – check out our guided video meditations with manta rays and experience their profound effect from wherever you are.
