Yes eagle rays are common but unlike Southern stingrays they like to hide when you are trying to find them and dart off quickly. Did manage to see quite a few around STJ this past July. Had some great encounters with mantas off of Isla Holbox and Isla Mujeres and of course the Big Island of Hawaii. They are amazing, especially when leaping. You’ll find the Eagle rays around the Vi and PR tend to approach you and try to rub up against you almost like pets. But then its not a hunted species like it might be in other areas where they are caught for food.
