Half Day Snorkeling in Moorea
Overview
Available languages
4 hours
Mobile ticket
After picking you up from your hotel, you will sail around Opunohu Bay in search of spinner dolphins.
1st stop is snorkeling with stingrays and blacktip sharks. This activity takes place on a shallow sandbank of the lagoon where you can stand as the water is only waist-chest high.
2nd stop is a drift snorkeling at the coral canyon where you can observe green turtles and white spotted eagle rays. This activity is a drift snorkel where you will be drifted by the current while snorkeling. It takes place in slightly deeper waters so we recommend that our customers know how to swim and use snorkeling equipment. However, if you are not very comfortable in the water you can stay and watch from the boat. (This activity may be suspended if the conditions are bad)
3rd snorkeling stop is at the coral garden between the two most beautiful motus off the island of Moorea, where you can swim and admire all kinds of multicolored fish. You will also enjoy a break with a drink and fresh fruit.

5.00Awesome day snorkeling the reefs and waters around Moorea. Mata, Anna, & Matu were great guides and provided a safe/comfortable experience. Saw spinner dolphins, turtles, rays, sharks, and tons of fish. Having snorkeled only in the Caribbean before it was truly amazing to see. Definitely planning to come back for whale season!!
5 star excursion, highly recommend!!

5.00Knowledgeable and super friendly crew. When I realised the leaving point was a short ride away from where I would be, I contacted them by email to arrange a ride for the next day. They got straight back to me and picked me up on right on time the next morning. This was a great excursion by a great team, I saw dolphins, sharks, turtles, rays and of course lots of fish. Highly recommended, I gave 5 stars without hesitation.
An unforgettable memory at sea!!

5.00An unforgettable memory!! The three snorkeling spots were all more beautiful than the last. We had the chance to swim with turtles, sharks and even rays in an absolutely incredible setting. The captain and guide, Mato and Tama, were exceptional! They made us live a unique moment while passionately sharing the history of the island and the different bays. After the last snorkeling session, we also enjoyed a delicious tray of fresh fruit accompanied by drinks (pineapple juice and punch), a real plus to finish the excursion. We also greatly appreciated their flexibility and kindness. Our initial excursion with another provider was cancelled the day before, I booked this activity at 2am for a departure at 8am... and they took the time to answer me in the middle of the night to make sure we had a means of transport. A truly attentive and professional service. I recommend this excursion 200%! Beautiful landscapes, preserved animals and incredible guides. An experience to do absolutely during your stay!!

5.00Tamahere and M were a great and knowledgeable crew for an amazing morning of snorkeling. Stopped in a few different places and saw many more fauna than expected. Dolphins, turtles, sharks, rays and much more. Entertaining and so very helpful, didn’t matter what your ability level was. Would definitely recommend them.
Great time with lots of marine life

5.00This was my favorite excursion of the trip, probably best snorkeling experience we've had next to the Great Barrier Reef, truly! We arrived on the Luminosa cruise ship and they picked us up at the tender port. If the times don't work out for your arrival, just message them, they delayed their start by 30 minutes for us! 3 unique snorkeling stops, all amazing in their own way! 1st was a chest deep white sand lagoon where reef sharks & rays swim (not enclosed) and we literally snorkeled with dozens around us! 2nd stop, the boat dropped us in a slow current to spot turtles! I felt like Crush in "Finding Nemo" as we rode the current spotting 12 turtles in 10 minutes before the boat picked us up down the way! So fun! Then lastly we stopped at a popular reef and had a free swim surrounded by fish and pretty coral. The captain and Tamo were knowledgeable and kind, always smiling and checking on us to be sure we were having a great time! This was the highlight of our trip, I hope to visit Moorea again so I can do it again! 100% recommend!
Great snorkeling trip at three different spots each was different

5.00Our very cheerful tour guide did a wonderful job describing the tour plan, timing of events etc. Well done itinerary was everything that was described and was excellent. Three spots, a small shark and ray spot, a turtle snorkel spot and a reef fish spot.
