Cool drinks flow and mellow beats play as you board the Vitamin Sea, a 40-foot (12-meter) former racing sailing catamaran, for your journey into paradise. Snorkel with a guide at a natural coral garden replete with aquarium fish; gather around a floating bar; lounge in trampoline nets or on sunbeds; and sail to spectacular hidden beaches.

If you're visiting Bora Bora, this is an absolute must-do activity! Without a doubt, it was the best experience of our trip. The boat is exceptional—spotlessly clean and well-maintained. During the tour, we had the chance to see an incredible variety of sea life, which made the entire experience even more memorable. A highlight was the floating bar in the water, a unique touch that really set this tour apart. Highly recommend it—you won’t regret it!

The whole day was magical! From the time we were picked up by the speedboat until we returned to our pickup point it was topnotch . Our captain took good care of us older folks making sure we could get around and made sure we were safe while snorkeling and swimming. We could not have asked for a better excursion. I highly recommend!

We had the very best time on the catamaran! The hosts were very informative. They paid close attention to everyone on board. Lay back and let the sails take you to paradise!

Incredible 1/2 day excursion on a beautiful catamaran. Total of 5 couples and 3 crew on our trip and it was excellent. Plenty of room, super clean, modern and comfortable. Viewing Bora Bora under sail power was amazing. Snorkeling site was fun and the beach bar was super chill. What a great way to kick back, relax and enjoy Bora Bora by water. Thank you to the Vitamin Sea crew for a great memory!

We had a wonderful time on the Vitamin Sea. We were picked up at the Vaitape dock by a Zodiac, then flew across the atoll to the Four Seasons, then to the St. Regis. The catamaran was docked there. It's a beautiful racing boat, with plenty of room for all 8 of us. We sailed to the Aquarium, a good snorkeling spot, then to a shallow cove, where we were served drinks and snacks. I highly recommend this tour.

Fantastic experience with the best views. The shallow lagoon and floating bar was an awesome treat. Jane and Dillon were great. More luxurious than expected!

The boat and crew were spectacular. The snorkeling was beautiful. We really enjoyed the entire experience.
Chris_C, Apr 2025
Best snorkeling ever with a broad variety of fish and probably in the hundreds as far as quantity. Great hosts and the boat is extremely comfortable with options for sun and shade. Great experience!

This experience was the “top shelf” of our trip to Bora Bora! There’s nothing better than the chill vibe this crew provided for us. Book this experience. You won’t be disappointed!
Ellen_M, Oct 2024
Great sailing! Great crew! Beautiful day. Too rough to snorkel but the rum flowed and we had lots of laughs while we enjoyed the beautiful scenery!
Samantha_S, Aug 2024
Viator cancelled this excursion on us 2 days before it. It only operates 2 days a week and unfortunately we are not here the other day. We were told the boat was inoperable due to a motor yet it’s a sail boat and saw it operating on sea the day prior. We’re super frustrated with this and unfortunately will not be using Viator for bookings on a go forward basis.

This all female crew was the absolute best! They were welcoming, knowledgeable, and a lot of fun! My husband and I had a great time. This was my first catamaran trip and it was an amazing experience! DEFINITELY do this activity if you are in Bora Bora!
Cory_G, Jun 2024
Beautiful boat in a beautiful place. The crew Tony and Alex were awesome! I’m am so glad we booked this tour, I highly recommend!
Nancy_B, Jun 2024
This excursion was GREAT! Captain Tony and his crew were so hospitable, nice & so much FUN! One of the crew members names was “OCEAN” & she was so adorable and FUN to talk too! I’m so sorry that I don’t remember the other crews name but she was great too! She really knew how to maneuver & pull up the anchor! The rum punch was DELICIOUS! The music was awesome! The view and the ride was priceless! Hope to do it again! XOXO

What a wonderful and beautiful way to see Bora Bora! Our weather wasn’t the best so for safety precautions we didn’t get to snorkel but we got to sail longer! The crew was amazing and made sure everyone was accommodated and comfortable. This is a must do….thanks for the memorable time💕🌸
NicholasB_H, Mar 2024
Terrific experience!!! This was the highlight of our trip to Bora Bora. The all-female crew was amazing. So very nice and informative. Great ride, scenery, snorkeling, and drinking from the floating bar. We even got to drive for a bit and made new friends. Highly, highly recommend so sign up today.
kristen_c, Mar 2024
Such a a great trip!! I highly recommend booking with Vitamin Sea. They are the only catamaran day trip in bora bora. Would definitely book this trip again when we return to bora bora

It was very relaxing, boat was much smoother than power boat. Loved the little floating bar. Klement and Amy were both very nice. My wife and I r both very happy! Thank you!
Ryan_K, Sep 2023
Amazing experience. Snorkeling was fantastic followed up by the floating bar. Guides were A+++ and super friendly and accommodating. Boat was incredible. Open air catamaran experience was fantastic. Highly recommended.
Kevin_S, Aug 2023
This was an amazing experience for me and my new wife. We had done a catamaran ride in another location but this tops it! The couple who operates this is nothing short of amazing. The group size is small enough to enjoy but not quite private. The locations where we went were amazing and the floating bar was awesome. Can’t recommend this enough!
Darian_A, Aug 2023
One of the most enjoyable things we did. Easy day with lots of sun to snorkel and then finish the day off with some alcohol!? Met some great people and had a blast

What a wonderful trio of experiences! We sailed the clear blue waters around the east side of Bora Bora. With a lengthy, guided snorkeling time at a beautiful reef we enjoyed seeing all sorts of aquatic life and coral. We sailed on with a stop in shallow waters to enjoy a “floating bar” (with great homemade rum punch and a coconut opening demonstration). It allowed us a little time for the nine passengers to get to know more about each other while we sipped our drinks. Finally, we sailed back to our starting point and bid adieu.
I would have loved more sail time and less motoring; but with the constraints of a four-hour trip, I understood the need to motor part of the distance. The captain and first mate were wonderful, informative and very helpful. I would highly recommend this as a great way to see the island’s wonders.
Kim_M, May 2023
Everything was great! Highly recommend this tour. Ocean time with floating bar allowed us to get to know others in the group as well as our hosts/crew.
Linda_M, Mar 2023
A beautiful sailing experience. This is what Bora Bora is all about. Snorkeling in clear warm turquoise waters.
Greg_S, Dec 2022
Capt Tony and Paula took great care of us. Went to one of the better snorkeling sites I’ve been to here and hanging out at Paradise beach was priceless.
Jillian_L, Jul 2022
We had such a great time! The crew was awesome and their boat was relaxing. My only recommendation is to bring your own snorkel gear if you have it.
Michael_M, May 2022
Great crew and great experience. We didn’t want to leave! The views were amazing and learned so much about the plant life…drinks were great too!
