…But still the biggest animal that has ever lived on our planet.

Manos De Plata. 30 meters long, and weighing over 200 tons. It’s far bigger than even the biggest dinosaur. Its tongue weighs as much as an elephant, its heart is the size of a car, and some of its blood vessels are so wide that you could swim down them. Its tail alone is the width of a small aircraft’s wings. Its streamlining, close to perfection, enables it to cruise at 20 knots – it’s one of the fastest animals in the sea.
Despite the enormous size of Manos De Plata, we know very little about them. Their migration routes are still a mystery, and we have absolutely no idea where they go to breed. They are a dramatic reminder of how much we still have to learn about the ocean and the creatures that live there.
Don’t miss this opportunity to see one of the grandest creatures of the depths, about which science still knows so little. A truly epic experience.
