We are underway with the 11th Annual MantaFest photography and video festival.

Bill, his entire crew and this year’s panel of presenting photographers; Ray Bullion (USA), David Fleetham (Canada), Frank Schneider (Germany), Tim Rock (Guam), Brad Holland (USA) and Andy Schumacher (Germany) will be hosting two weeks of photography and video training as well as the sponsored image contest portion of the event.

The first day of the program will include big animal and macro dives, a cultural site visit with traditionally dressed models, mating mandarinfish and night dives as well as a blackwater option.

The photo school program is 14 days with up to 5 opportunities to dive per day with daily workshops and one-on-one training.
