YAP ISLAND - If you are looking for a place to enjoy some of the finest diving in the world and a place where few other tourists have visited, then Yap was made for you. Continental Airlines' 737 jets serve Yap regularly from Guam and Palau. A stop in Yap is generally free of airfare charges when you are on your way to or from Palau. There are currently 4 flights a week: Wednesday the itinerary is Guam, Yap, Palau, Manila, Palau, Yap and back to Guam. On Thursday and Saturday nights the itinerary is Guam, Palau, Yap, Palau and back to Guam (arriving Friday and Sunday mornings). All of our flights now connect better with the U.S. mainland, Japan, Hong Kong, Manila and other parts of Micronesia. To most people, a dive trip to Micronesia is considered to be a "once in a lifetime trip". The diving is that spectacular but with modern jet service; Micronesia is much closer than one normally thinks.

Manta Ray Bay Hotel and Yap Divers

MANTA RAY BAY HOTEL - Manta Ray Bay Hotel and Yap Divers (Yap's only PADI Gold Palm Resort) are dedicated to providing the international diving community an opportunity to enjoy world class diving in world-class comfort.

Manta Ray Bay Hotel and Yap Divers

All rooms are air-conditioned and have a ceiling fan, refrigerator, color TV, VCR, satellite TV, international direct dial telephone, private bathroom with hot water and built-in hair dryer, as well as a private balcony for the Ocean View rooms. In addition, we have installed a sophisticated and highly efficient water purification system, resulting in fully potable in-room tap water (the only hotel on Yap with this feature). Each room was completely remodeled in 2000 with the guests' comfort foremost in mind. Truly works of art, the rooms are decorated in tropical elegance including tiled floors throughout the hotel. Furniture is natural rattan with a tropical pastel fabric, and pots of exotic tropical plants can be found everywhere. The motif of the entire hotel is marine life. Each room bears a fish name, and is decorated accordingly, with photographs and paintings of that fish, right down to the hand carved key chain. Each room has unique hand made bedspreads and shower curtains depicting the motif for that particular room. The double doors connecting the rooms of the suite are adorned with carvings of manta rays.
