Absolutely stunning experience - from the beginning to the end. We had the opportunity to learn more about the wildlife in the lagoon, specificities of Moorea and spent some time swimming with the sharks and sting rays. Very friendly and authentic experience - sailing on traditional Polynesian boats was extraordinary.

Une belle découverte du lagon : d’abord avec les tikis puis grosse émotion en nageant avec les raies et les requins dans une ambiance chaleureuse

On a passé une journée incroyable sur le lagon et au dela. Requins, raies, poissons multicolores, couché de soleil... Enplus, notre capitaine est un vrai passionné: à la fois de la navigation et des légendes locales

On a passé une journée extra! Paysages magnifiques, chaque plongée était différente et dans des spots incroyables. On en a prit plein les yeux! C’était génial! Et quel bonheur de pouvoir naviguer sur un bateau original, loin des bateaux/barques touristiques.
