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.

We did a full day tour and was picked up at our hotel. Maui made it very fun and even sung songs and played music for us. We swam with the sharks, saw a mantra ray and coral gardens. Lunch was fabulous and lots of swimming time. Definitely recommend this for a great day out.

I don’t swim and was real worried getting into the water. Christ made it a real memorable experience. I don’t swim and was so afraid when first got into the water. He held my hands to pull me forward until I feel comfortable in the water. I couldn’t believe I was able to do this trip without missing any part. We got to see different kinds of stingray, sharp, different fishes and Corel.

So much fun. They provide everything but your towels. Patient with all experience levels. Also got a tutorial over lunch on how to open and eat a coconut! We swam with sharks, sting rays, manta rays, eagle rays. Swam through the coral reef. Highly recommend!

After the tour was postponed by the organizer, we were glad that it even took place. The boat arrived on time at the hotel jetty to pick us up. At various points there was snorkeling and there were all sorts of things to see. Manta rays, sharks , stingrays and...! Lunch was served on a motu . What we personally did not like so much: we only had one guide of the boaters etc was . No chants, the food was not as good as on our tour on Moorea . Everything was already ready and not freshly prepared. With handbags made from palm leaves, the stay was lengthened and so there was less time to snorkel in the Coral Garden. But this is our personal experience and should not help to rate the guide too poorly. We had a perfect tour on Moorea and there you inevitably draw comparisons.

We went there for two days.Fortunately, we saw manta every day. We couldn't swim. The captain pulled us with a lifebuoy to see it. It was highly recommended.It was suitable for anyone, whether they could swim or not.

If you are still deciding, stop and book it. We did the half day for $160 and it was more than worth it. The views were like something out of a postcard, the guides Ramon, Tahahiti and Jef absolutely made the experience, they made us feel comfortable and shared the history of Bora oceans in an informal setting, we saw manta-rays and black tip reef sharks. The entire operation is worth every minute, I loved how they take you to a private beach for lunch made by the locals and sang alongside playing the ukulele. Beautiful. Thank you for your kindness and the incredible experience. Michelle, Naomi & Alissa

These guys exceeded our expectations. They showed us many beautiful motu’s around Bora Bora, we snorkeled and swam with some stingrays and reef sharks. Good food and a stop at the beach. What we loved about this was the crew seemed to really love showing off their beautiful island with pride. Highly highly recommend this tour.
