Joining Manta Trust's Cross the Oceans 2021 challenge, by committing to run at least 75km (up from my original pledge of 50km!) within the month of June, and raising funds to support this incredible non-profit's manta ray conservation efforts.  

Manta rays are one of the smartest and most sociable creatures of the ocean – and meeting them is a highlight for most of us dive enthusiasts - yet they are also among the most endangered marine species. 

To learn more about manta rays and the risks facing them, check out this story I wrote about the world's largest manta ray fishery turned marine sanctuary:  https://causeartist.com/conservation-nonprofits-worlds-largest-manta-ray-fishery-marine-sanctuary/

Please do make a donation if you can, even if it's just the cost of your daily coffee run - every $ counts and I - plus the mantas - would be forever grateful:).
