The Year in Yap

Compared to many other areas in the West Pacific and Southeast Asia, the weather in Yap doesn't change much during the year. There are some slight variations though, so to help you plan your visit to fit your personal preferences, and to provide you with as much information as possible on what Yap will be like at the time that you choose to visit, we are pleased to offer our calendar of The Year on Yap.

A long with information about the seasonal conditions and yearly occuring events such as holidays for each month, we've also added daily tide predictions and moon phases for the next twelve months. If you want to plan your visit to coincide with the optimal conditions for manta diving, this information can be very useful. In addition to the monthly data, we've also included yearly averages and charts to make it easy to see how seasonal changes affect each month.

In our guests own words...

Our time at the Manta Ray Bay Resort was absolutely wonderful. From diving with aquatic giants, to macro marvels, to crystal clear water, to swapping sea stories at the Crow's Nest Bar, to the personable hotel staff, we could not have wished for a more amazing experience.
