Top Raiatea Self-guided Tours

An essential activity for any stopover in Raiatea, even a few hours! Snorkeling in one of the most beautiful coral gardens in Polynesia, accessible to all, in the heart of a preserved lagoon. And above all, don’t forget your Go Ace and other devices to capture your wonderful memories! What you will see is not like an aquarium... it’s very real, and it’s even more beautiful!

The Mystery House Raiatea invites you through a guided tour to discover more than 20 strange workshops that will put your senses to the test. Inspired by the mythical “Gravity Hills”, which, due to the absence of a visual horizon, give the illusion of seeing a road going up, when in reality it is going down. Some examples of the workshops presented are: – La Boussole Folle: a magnetic compass that disorients itself! – Foucault’s Pendulum: a pendulum that stops by itself! – The Infinite Arrow: an arrow that always points in the same direction! – The Reverse Slope: water or ping pong ball going up the slope! Our best guide is also the instigator of the project. Passionate about optical games and facts not explained a priori, Gérard will take you on a merry-go-round of illusions and change your point of view forever. With a good-natured mood and a desire to share his vision of bizarre things, Gérard will make you have a great time.
