Te Mara Nui Plongee - Incredibly Wonderful Staff and Trip to the Coral Garden

5.00I organized 2 boats in Raiatea for 20 of our friends to experience the drift snorkel in the Coral Garden in Taha'a and we were not disappointed. Our boat driver and snorkel instructor were super friendly, accommodating and exceptionally well experienced. We had gorgeous weather and were able to truly enjoy the crystal clear waters and drift current at the remarkably wonderful location. One of our friends has mobility problems and the instructor was so remarkably kind as to physically assist him in walking and snorkeling so he could enjoy the snorkel experience with the rest of us. I'd do this excursion again in a heartbeat, espcially with

5.00We loved this excursion. Good communication, left on time, even a bit early. We appreciated a small group (about 10). It is a 40 min beautiful ride to the spot, then a short 5 or 10 minute walk to the start and a beautiful, relaxing and colorful float/drift snorkel down. It is bright colored coral and many fish. A great option in Raiteia

5.00The team at Bora Diving Center were wonderful. My partner and I are new divers and our guide, Manu, made us totally comfortable and had suggestions that have helped improve our skills and comfort level. The dives themselves were great with black tip reef sharks on the first dive and mantas on the second. I will absolutely dive with them again if I have the opportunity to return.
Great conditions in this coral garden tour

4.00Great tour with two great guides that helps us swim safely in the drift. Many fishes seen and excellent conditions. 4/5 as it felt a little like a back and forth tour with no additional explanations and nothing specific in welcoming us to the tour.

5.00The trip was a great experience. We enjoyed it a lot. You really glide over the corals on the water. One of a kind. Here, however, be careful not to get close to the corals. Otherwise cuts are possible. You still have to keep in mind that round-trip travel is a bit rocky. Also, as already mentioned in the description, bathing shoes are absolutely necessary.
A wonderful experience

5.00Papa Zoulou's crew were excellent. They looked after us really well and took us to the best places in the coral garden searching out interesting fish and sea creatures for us. It was a wonderful experience and not to be missed.
