5.00Great tour. Jeff the captain brought us to a coral garden and explained different kinds of fish. He then brought us to see some reef sharks and eagle rays. The banana bread from Jeff’s wife is amazing. Very relaxing tour.

Magical Day in Bora Bora’s Lagoon on a Solar Catamaran

5.00We spent four hours with Parataito Explorer, and it was unforgettable. The solar-powered boat is silent, clean, and free of fumes—such a peaceful way to experience the lagoon. With fresh fruit, drinks, and Jeff’s wife’s delicious banana bread, every detail felt thoughtful. Having it just for the two of us made it even more special. Parataito Explorer is Jeff and his wife’s business, built around this beautiful solar catamaran. Jeff, born and raised on Bora Bora, shared amazing stories about the island and lagoon. He was attentive and caring—I swim in the ocean just once a year and was nervous being close to the coral; he guided me calmly and kept an eye on both of us in the water. That kind of care is rare and made all the difference. This was our fourth trip to Bora Bora, and this excursion has become something we’ll do every time. Next visit, we’re booking the 6-hour trip. Truly exceptional.
Excellent private tour - 100% recommend!

5.00Excellent private tour with my young family. We saw fish, rays, and black tipped reef sharks! The scenery is stunning and our favourite stop was the sharks. The guide was very nice and accommodating with our young kids. The boat is perfect for our group of 6 and would 100% recommend! Thanks also for the home-grown pineapple and tasty snacks. Māuruuru!
Highly recommend, peaceful serene experience

5.00This was an amazing experience. Jeff, our driver, was extremely knowledgeable spoke great English and was a great host overall. The beauty of using the Solar boat to tour around the island or Lagoon is how quiet it is and how peaceful the whole experience is. Jeff knew all the most amazing spots to go, I had a very intimate snorkeling experience swimming with black tip sharks and stingrays, got to see one of the most beautiful reefs like something you’d see out of National Geographic documentaries… While snorkeling thanks to Jeff. Honoring Bora Bora‘s beautiful Lagoon on a quiet solar power boat is the way to go, versus loud engines and exhaust etc.… Hands-down the best experience I’ve had on a boat in Bora (and this is my fourth visit to Bora Bora)
Solar powered private boat experience in bora bora was terrific!

5.00This was ann amazing private boat tour for our family of five start to finish and we have done a few. The boat was solar powered and island speed cruising. Jeff was a terrific guide / super knowledgeable and attentive. We saw manta rays, stingrays, sharks and eagle rays along with beautiful fish in the coral garden. Tipped off by delicious home made banana bread and drinks. I cannot recommend this tour more. Relatively new, eco friendly sky and Tahitian owned. Will absolutely do it again and again!
Perfect morning
