Top Tahiti Snorkeling - page 2

Nico and his captain did a great job of taking us to three different locations for snorkeling. A wet suit is required to be worn which they supply along with other snorkeling equipment. You can bring your own snorkeling equipment if you want. We got touch a manta ray and see a large turtle! Nico takes pictures and videos of everyone throughout the snorkeling experience. At the end he will show you the footage on a TV. The prices are as follows: $100 (10,000 francs) for pictures only. $100 (10,000 francs) for videos only. $120 (120,000 francs) for pictures and videos. You can try taking your own photos throughout the experience, but I doubt your photos will be as good as Nico's. They will send you a link via email the morning after the excursion to download the files which are very large. Using a sea scooter is a huge advantage because you preserve your energy and get to see a larger area! Highly recommend booking with these guys for snorkeling!

We had a great day with our tour guide, Antoinette. She was knowledgeable, kind, fun, and seemed to know every person and plant in Tahiti! We only had a few days to explore the island, so it was great to see many of the famous spots we otherwise wouldn't have visited. Antoinette took us all the way around the big island, with many beautiful stops along the way. She also got us delicious fresh fruit, treated us to ice cream, provided water, took us to her favorite bakery when we told her we love pain au chocolat (it was exceptional), and even offered to take us grocery shopping if we needed! Her generosity and willingness to make our day special really stood out. Each site we visited was gorgeous, interesting, and worth the visit. We especially loved the Fa'arumai waterfalls and Taharu'u Beach, but everything was wonderful! Many of the places we stopped had refreshing shade and cool water, which was lovely on a hot day. Antoinette is a fountain of knowledge, and she answered all of our questions with patience and enthusiasm. We learned so much about historical Tahiti, as well as Tahiti today. Thank you for a wonderful tour!

Great Excursion! We took this excursion after arriving by cruise ship. The provider was easy to find at the pier. It was a great day filled with snorkeling with rays, sharks, and lots of fish. We enjoyed the presentations of preparing authentic Polynesian food and how to harvest a coconut.
