We went around Vaimareva with family 2 adults and 2 boys of 10 years. A real success. Our captain Yoan knows the region, the history, the legends in addition to the best sites for snorkling. The pontoon is very nice and we loved the experience. Recommendation without reservation!

The outing on the Punaauia lagoon with the "Barboat VAIMAREVA" was wonderful. The warm welcome, an enchanting atmosphere, swimming on the sandbank and the spectacular sunset... It's an experience to absolutely live! Thanks to Captain Yohann.

Yoan was very warm and welcoming on board and shared lots of interesting facts about Tahiti, the islands and lagoons.He went above and beyond booking us a table at the Blue Banana and driving us right up to their jetty where we had a wonderful meal. Yoan even kindly brought a room key to the restaurant that we left on board 😘 5Star service from a lovely young man we wish you every success in your new venture 👏👏👏
