The mantas are attracted to this bay by the large amount of plankton that currents bring there through the channels that Baa is connected to the ocean. In this area you can see groups of more than 200 manta rays that gather spinning with their mouths open trying to take all possible plankton.
The plankton also attracts whale sharks in this area, creating a very important breeding place for the population of whale sharks in Asia.
