An unforgettable snorkeling experience! Swimming alongside stingrays and blacktip sharks was incredible, and the crew made everything feel safe, fun, and well-organized. The water was crystal clear and absolutely beautiful—truly a highlight of the trip. Highly recommend this adventure to anyone visiting!

This experience was truly magical! In part by our amazing tour guide who was funny, attentive, and knowledgeable. Our family has done several excursions and this one topped them all. He was excellent in catering to everyone in e group, especially my 92 year old grandma. He would serenade, take pictures, make hats and much much more. Thank you for the memories

Actually we were unable to go, but our friends did and had a fantastic day snorkeling and a wonderful lunch.

This here was an amazing tour. Everything from swimming with the sharks and rays to the local cuisine. My wife ate poisson cru at 3 different locations over our 12 day vacation. This was by far her favorite. Tour guides were very knowledgeable and helpful. This is a must do tour if you are ever in Moorea.
Response from Host, May 2026
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re delighted you enjoyed the tour, the local food, and the unforgettable experience with the sharks and rays. Hearing that our poisson cru was your wife’s favorite truly means a lot to us. We hope to welcome you back to Moorea again soon!
Mauruuru !!

We had a wonderful time on this tour and left very satisfied.
Everything was well organized, and the instructions about where to park and where the tour started were very clear and easy to follow.
Our guide was fantastic — friendly, funny, and made the whole experience even more enjoyable.
We expected there might be a bit more snorkeling, but this was more than made up for by the amazing program on the island and the delicious lunch.
Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely recommend this tour to others visiting Moorea.
Response from Host, May 2026
Thank you very much Viktoria for your kind review! We’re delighted to hear that you had such a wonderful time and enjoyed the overall experience.

Our captain Mana was outstanding with his leadership on our tour. We visited an area where we swam among blacktip reef sharks and rays, then he took us to a spot where we were one of two small groups in a coral bed where we saw lots of smaller,colorful fish. Next we were off to a small islet where Mana prepared poisson cru, a local dish that reminded us of ceviche. He gave a demonstration of several skills needed to prepare the ingredients as he went along. Finally we had some explanations of local Moorean herbal medicines, and we then made our way back to the launch point. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves!
Response from Host, May 2026
Thank you very much for your wonderful feedback! We are delighted that you enjoyed every part of the excursion, from the marine encounters to the cultural and culinary experience with Mana. He will be very happy to read your kind words 🌺

I would definitely recommend this boat tour. I get seasick and was concerned about the boat trip, but it turns out Moorea has a natural reef all the way around it, and therefore the sea is relatively calm. I had no issues. Kaku was an excellent tour guide. He told us about the island and the Tahitian culture. We went near the two bays so we could see the beauty of the island. He then took us to our first snorkeling stop, which was a sandbar. This was an easy and exceptional snorkeling spot for anyone The water is less than 4 feet deep and if you needed to stand, you could stand on the sand. There was also plenty of coral for the fish to swim around, but the highlight was definitely petting the stingrays and swimming with the black tipped sharks. Our second spot for snorkeling was again a relatively easy area to snorkel. There were again many fish, stingrays, and sharks. If you do not like to get in the water, you can see the stingrays and sharks and many fish from the boat. They provided a mask and snorkel as well as a soft clean towel. They do not provide fins, but at the first sight, you do not need them. At The second site I used my fins to explore a little further. Our next stop was for lunch and Kaku showed us how to open a coconut and shave out the coconut meat. He then prepared the traditional poisson cru. I am not a raw fish eater, and this was one of the most delicious things on the trip. We then had lunch chicken, fish, and a few other side dishes that were OK. One of the guest asked to see a turtle and Kaku did not disappoint. He took us by the place where the turtles were swimming and we saw at least three turtles. Again I would definitely recommend this trip. It was a highlight of my trip.
Response from Host, May 2026
Thank you so much for your wonderful and detailed review!
We are very happy to hear that you felt comfortable on the boat despite your concerns about seasickness.
Kakiu will be especially touched by your kind words. Sharing the beauty of Moorea, its culture, and creating memorable moments with our guests is exactly what we love to do.
Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience with such detail. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back to Moorea one day for another adventure with us!

Great experience seeing Moorea, a boat of 12 but good room on board not on top of each other. Manna the captain, guide and chef was great with a wonderful manner which made for a fun day of history, snorkelling, coconut opening and eating, and lunch. Well worth it because of the smaller number of participants ….
Response from Host, May 2026
'Ia ora na Bruce ! Thank you for the wonderful review. We’re glad the small-group size and comfortable boat made your day, and that Mana’s warm guiding stood out. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back to Moorea.

We got picked up from our hotel by the king himself, Elvis. The ride down to the pier was exciting. We got to the pier and hopped on to the boat to meet our Captain Norti. We got an introduction to some Island history and off to see the sharks and rays. After that was the coral gardens and final stop was lunch. Food was delicious and the demonstrations were interesting. We had French and English speakers in the group so Norti had to speak both languages all day, he worked hard! Thanks for a fun filled time.

This tour is a great way to experience the island of Moorea. Our driver, Manna did an excellent job of giving us some of the history and culture of the island.. He explained the highlights of the island with great stories and humor. We stopped to swim with the manta rays and reef sharks first and then we went to the coral garden to snorkel. Both were great stops. On the motu, Manna showed us how to open coconuts and make a delicious tuna dish. We enjoyed that and other island foods for lunch.
After lunch we were able to explore the
Motu area and see more manta rays close to the shore. Next, there was a weaving demonstration to make hats from coconut leaves. The hats were beautifully woven and given to the people on the tour. Lastly, we leaned to tie a pareo in multiple ways. There were lots of laughs and a fun time with our group

Our guide took us to some great places to snorkel. We saw many kinds of beautiful fish, Blacktip sharks, and stingrays.
The coral garden has hints of color with the coral and a backdrop again of colorful fish. They also demonstrated how to open a coconut and harvest the meat, and then weaved hats out of palm leaves for some of the guests!
The lunch was very good- definitely try the tuna ceviche- it was seriously good- totally fresh made right there!
Our guides were fun- loving, knowledgeable and engaged. They went above and beyond to create a remarkable experience. Great experience- we’ll worth the time and money!

This tour was so awesome. Our kids ages 12-14 loved every minute of it. Our guide was super knowledgeable about moorea and very patient with the kids. The stingrays are like puppy’s here- it’s insane and our guide kept us safe and educated us on how to handle them. This tour was beyond what we expected.

Unbelievable. Great balance of snorkeling, history, culture, and food. I cannot state how incredible the tour was for my whole family of five. Captain Mana took great pride showing his island and sharing its history. We had a history lesson en route, two different snorkel sessions (about 45 minutes each), cooking lesson, lunch, and a quick culture experience. Food was outstanding and they had non-fish options for my picky eating daughter. All in all just outstanding day.

We had an absolutely incredible day with Wilfred! From start to finish, the tour was seamless, fun, and full of unforgettable experiences. We snorkeled with stingrays and blacktip sharks, and Wilfred even took us to see turtles—it was breathtaking. The highlight, though, was the amazing lunch he prepared for us right on the beach—it felt so personal and authentic. Beyond the activities, Wilfred shared so much about Tahitian culture, making the day both adventurous and meaningful. Highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting a true taste of Tahiti’s beauty and culture!
