A true diver’s paradise, French Polynesia is undoubtedly one of the world’s top destinations for scuba diving. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced diver, don’t miss the chance to take your first plunge into this iconic destination, where lagoons glow with hundreds of shades of blue and teem with fascinating marine life.

Your certified instructor will brief your dive group and explain the site you’re about to explore. Once aboard the boat, you’ll head out to the chosen dive site. On arrival, you’ll gear up, sit at the edge of the boat, and on the count of three… tip into an entirely new world.

In Fakarava, the North Pass of Garuae—the widest in all of French Polynesia—offers spectacular diving far from mass tourism, with thriving coral reefs and an impressive concentration of pelagic fish and sharks. (2 consecutive scuba dives)

The South Pass of Tetamanu is perfect for all levels of divers. With gentle conditions and remarkable visibility, it reveals vibrant coral gardens, Napoleon wrasse, massive schools of fish, and countless gray reef sharks, including the famous “shark wall” that attracts divers from across the globe. (2 consecutive scuba dives during a FULL DAY excursion)
