Jardin de Corail

Discover Tahaa's famous Coral Garden, one of the most stunning drift snorkel site in French Polynesia, in the heart of a preserved lagoon. Departing from Raiatea allows you to enjoy the beauty of the lagoon on a relaxing boat ride toward Tahaa, the " Vanilla Island", with breathtaking views of Bora Bora on the horizon. After an approximate 30-minute ride, we'll arrive at the Coral Garden on the motu of Tautau. Before entering the water, you'll receive snorkeling equipment, water shoes and a small briefing by Tearii, your captain and certified snorkeling guide. The gentle current makes this snorkeling experience accessible to all and enjoyable for all levels. As the current carries you along, you'll swim in a real natural aquarium and glide over vibrant coral formations while spotting abundant marine life and schools of multicolor fish. A truly magical moment that you'll never forget ! After snorkeling, relax on the beach or aboard with fresh tropical fruits and cold drinks.

Tahaa

On the return to Raiatea, we stop at a second gorgeous site, in the middle of shallow turquoise water, where you'll encounter and safely swim with black-tip reef sharks in their natural habitat. Swimming with them feels both thrilling and deeply serene, and offers you a last opportunity to connect with the wildlife of the lagoon.
