5.00We had the best time on our tour with Laurent and Tehere as our captain and co-captain. We saw manta rays and learnt a lot about Bora through the tour, and as we were on the tour with other people, we got to see different places where people stayed. Our stops for the day included: - Manta ray area - Shark area - Coral garden (with the "Love <3 Bora Bora" sign done by/for divers) We had lot of fun on the day and after spending two weeks in French Polynesia, this tour is among our top 3!
Incredible Eco Snorkel Experience with an Amazing Crew

5.00This eco snorkel tour was easily one of the highlights of our trip. Captain Sam and our guide Sandro were fantastic—friendly, professional, and right on time. They made the entire experience smooth and enjoyable from start to finish, while also sharing helpful and interesting information about the marine life and environment. We were lucky enough to see manta rays, sting rays, and even sharks up close, which was absolutely unforgettable. One of the best parts was when Sam guided us on a swim through a coral garden. The corals were vibrant and healthy, and there were so many beautiful fish all around us—it felt like swimming in an aquarium. Overall, this tour struck the perfect balance between adventure and education. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a memorable and eco-conscious snorkeling experience.

5.00We looked for manta rays but couldn't find them. We went to another spot and saw a stingray, several colorful fish and blacktip sharks. Then, we went to the Coral garden-it was like swimming in a fish tank. We had a wonderful time.
Amazing Experience

5.00Very nice tour—you get to swim and walk with sharks and manta rays at one of the famous spots around the island where most people go, but then they take you away from the crowds and you also get to snorkel in a beautiful coral reef right on the edge where the bright cyan blue water meets the deep ocean. Such an amazing experience.
Amazing

5.00My sister and I took a private snorkel tour with Jean today. It was magical! We swam with black tip sharks and stingrays. We floated in a beautiful coral garden and saw beautiful fish of every shape and color. Being senior citizens, we especially appreciated Jean’s patience, his assistance, his good humor and knowledge, and his strength. We recommend him very highly!
Highly recommend

5.00We were picked up at our over the water bungalow by car. The boat tour took us across beautiful waters to swim with sharks and stingrays. Then the next stop was to see the coral reefs. We then were dropped off by boat to our bungalow. Highly recommend this tour. Our guide was awesome.
An absolutely incredible experience

5.00An absolutely amazing experience with Tema and Taf! 🌊✨From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized and the atmosphere on board was both friendly and professional. Swimming in the midst of rays and sharks in such a beautiful setting will remain etched long in my memory. Tema and Taf are passionate, reassuring and very caring: they take the time to explain, put at ease and share their love of the lagoon. We feel totally safe while enjoying this magical moment. If you are looking for an authentic excursion, respectful of nature and rich in emotions, I recommend with your eyes closed. A unique adventure that I would do again without hesitation! 💙 Alex and Angelique
