Kayaker Encounters Huge Manta Ray

Occurred on October 19, 2023 / Saint Joseph Bay, Florida, USA

Info from Licensor: "I was kayaking in Saint Joseph Bay (about 1/2 mile off of T.H. Stone Memorial Saint Joseph Peninsula State Park) when I saw something something in the water a few hundred yards in the distance. I was quite confused as to what it was and paddled towards it for a closer look. I was very surprised to find a large manta ray and two remoras. The manta ray was incredibly curious and hung around for at least twenty minutes."
