Overview

This group excursion, limited to 12 people, allows you to explore the lagoons of Moorea and Polynesian culture. You will travel aboard the island's only glass-bottom boat, making underwater observation accessible to all ages and fitness levels. The itinerary includes exploring three snorkeling sites to observe green turtles, eagle rays, sharks, stingrays, and underwater sculptures known as "Tikis". Snorkeling equipment is provided for these stops. Lunch is served on a private island owned by the organising family, away from shared beaches. The meal, prepared with local ingredients, includes Tahitian raw fish salad with coconut milk, chicken and fish skewers, and island fruits. Local rum, pineapple juice, and beer are included. Two options are available: one with a meeting directly at the Captain Taina - Turtle Club base at 9 am, and another including a pick-up service.
