  • Bora Bora - This small group excursion takes you on a tour of the lagoon onboard fast and comfortable boats, equipped with sun canopy for an enjoyable sun protection while cruising from one to another snorkelling spot (8 passengers maximum).

During this unique experience, you will discover pristine marine areas of the lagoon led by our qualified and passionate guides. Depending on the weather and wildlife behaviour on the day, you will visit between 3-4 spots:

First thing in the morning, you’ll head to the Manta Rays feeding ground to spot these underwater angels, before cruising to discover two renowned local coral gardens. If the conditions allow, you’ll also spend time looking for the Eagle Rays.

Your guide will jump in the water with you to point out the different species and help out where required people who are not comfortable swimmers.

Amazing Snorkel Experience - My husband and I did a half day snorkeling excursion with Fabian and we had an amazing time. We saw manta rays, eagle rays, black tip sharks, and more beautiful fish than we could count. We were well taken care of and would definitely recommend to anyone considering booking.

Great time and swam with sharks - Fabian is AWESOME! Had a great experience. We saw, and got in the water with, manta rays, a school of eagle rays, sharks, coral garden, stingrays and saw so much cool stuff. He was very knowledgeable and every location we stopped at was full of wildlife and great video opportunities.

Humpback whales 🐋🐋 seen 🤙 - We went around the outer reef with a cool motorboat and have humpback whales 🐋 🐋 (mother with baby) and were allowed to go to sea for observation. Fabien and Nui were super experienced whale guides and made this trip unforgettable. Thank you

Whale snorkeling - Fabian and Nui were great! We were able to hop in the water with whales 3 times and see them up close! Definitely a once in a lifetime experience.

The dream underwater! - There are not enough superlatives to describe what we saw today thanks to Pierre and his magnificent boat. Three-metre manta rays, leopard rays, pastenagues, sharks and hundreds of fish coming to watch you! The lagoon is so beautiful that we miss the colors to describe it. Pure happiness! Another big thank you to Pierre for the quality of his service and his kindness!

Wonderful tour - We had a great time with Pierre during the private tour! We were almost alone at the spots, saw plenty of manta rays, beautiful eagle rays, and coral gardens. We learned interesting things about the island 👌 We highly recommend the experience!

Unique experience - Our morning was exceptional. Pierre who accompanied us for this outing is really great! He advised, helped, and accompanied us throughout this outing. The coral garden, the encounter with manta rays and leopard rays will remain unique memories of our trip. Thank you again for this moment.

Awesome - Trip was just as described! Pierre the ‘captain’ was friendly, knowledgeable and professional. Saw manta rays, eagle rays and had a great snorkel in amongst the coral at the reef. Highly recommended half day excursion.
