Shared Boat Trip and Lagoon Safari in Bora Bora

Overview

This half-day excursion offers a Bora Bora lagoon safari focused on quality and environmental respect. Within a small group limited to 8 people, you will sail with experienced local guides to observe marine life in its natural habitat. The itinerary varies daily depending on conditions to lead you to selected sites where you can spot manta rays, eagle rays, turtles, dolphins, and explore coral gardens. In accordance with French Polynesia's wildlife protection laws, no food is used to attract animals. The service includes transfers to and from your hotel or the port, as well as bottled water. An additional benefit is provided in the form of a 10% discount on purchases at Deep Sea Pearls in Bora Bora.

Activity itinerary

This 3.5 hour tour by boat will take you to 3 or 4 separate snorkeling spots around the most beautiful lagoon in the world. The itinerary of the tour is never fixed and depends on the conditions of the day. We include a manta ray stop, a stop at the inner reef to see a natural coral garden abundant with life, an eagle ray stop and, if we have time, a fourth stop decided on the day taking into account conditions and things you may already have seen during your time here. The animals are seen in their natural environment and we do not partake in feeding or visit any sites where animals are artificially attracted by feeding (most notably the site where you can be in very shallow water with blacktip reef sharks and stingrays). Shark and ray feeding has been illegal in French Polynesia since October 2017, and we strictly respect both the law and ethical wildlife practices. The beauty of Bora Bora provides the perfect backdrop to the tour and you can soak this in as we cruise from spot to spot. We remain committed to small groups, responsible tourism, and respectful wildlife encounters, and we thank our many guests who choose us specifically for these values.
