Coral Gardens
The Coral Garden in Bora Bora is a stunning underwater paradise, located just off the main island in the lagoon. Known for its vibrant marine life and crystal-clear waters, it's a top snorkeling and diving destination where visitors can swim among colorful coral reefs, tropical fish, and sometimes even stingrays. The Coral Garden offers a serene and immersive experience, showcasing Bora Bora's natural beauty and biodiversity in a setting that feels both untouched and magical.
Bora Bora is famous for its encounters with graceful manta rays, especially around the Anau area in the lagoon. These gentle giants, with wingspans that can reach up to 20 feet, glide through the water in mesmerizing loops, feeding on plankton. Many tours offer snorkeling and diving trips to see the manta rays up close, especially early in the morning when they're most active. Known for their calm nature, manta rays in Bora Bora offer a breathtaking and peaceful underwater experience for divers and snorkelers alike, making them one of the highlights of Bora Bora's marine life.

Jazzy the guide was funny and all the workers are very helpful to those who need jeep in water, like child and elderly. The lunch is very good and we get to see 3 different types of rays, sharks, corals and fishes. The scenery is great,

Jeff our guide was informative and humurous, was able to provide his information in english as we are not french speakers unlike the rest of the party. We stopped at 4 different locations to enter the water, the manta ray only gave us a brief sighting, but good to see eagle rays, stingray, black tip reef sharks and of course many other beautiful reef fish. I would definitely recommend taking your own fins as there was more swimming involved than was the case on a previous snorkelling trip in moorea. Communication with the provider was good via WhatsApp, they requested we change our original date by a day, which we were fortunately able to do, they the kept us informed of the change to our pick up time and point and ultimately were able to pick us up directly from our hotel dock.

The most amazing experience of our visit to the beautiful island of Bora Bora. Thank you so much for the super friendly, and professional service of the captain and his mate. We could not express with words. You must experience it to fully understand it. An amazing chance in a life time to swim with the sharks, and stingrays in the beautiful lagoon of Bora Bora. We will never forget. Thank you for the amazing experience of a life time. We wish to return soon to swim with you and the friendly sharks and stingrays.🤩🤩

What a special day. You won’t regret it. Our captain, Chris, was fantastic! We were fortunate to come across and play with a pod of about 12 dolphins. Saw many many fish and sharks while snorkeling. Best of all were the rays: stingrays, mantarays and eagle rays. Lunch was the best food we’d had and after lunch was a good cultural education and learned how amazing coconuts really are. This was such a special opportunity and Chris really delivered a great experience.

It is 4 times that we participate in this lagoon day, with family or friends. Chris is a very good guide, his kindness accompanies us on this day. The motu Fanfan is idyllic! We'll be back, for sure! The apotheosis is the visit to the coral garden near the old motu of Paul Émile Victor! A delight!

We had a great time exploring the waters of Bora Bora, swimming with the sharks and rays and viewing the many colourful fish in the crystal clean water. Our only disappointment was that we thought this would be a more private excursion however when we went for the motu lunch a large boat loaded with cruise ship passengers joined us. We were at the motu first but had to wait for the cruise passengers to arrive, and then they were sent to eat first "because they had to get back to their ship sooner". Some even went for seconds before our group hit to eat leaving slim pickings for our group. We didn't starve by any means, but it did slightly tarnish our experience.
