Excursion Exclusive marine immersion with a biologist tour at Moorea

This excursion is a complete immersion in the lagoon of Moorea: marine encounters, breathtaking landscapes, and moments of serenity on the motus. It is an ideal time to reconnect with nature and experience the very essence of the fenua. Throughout this journey, you will be accompanied by a passionate marine biologist, ready to share fascinating insights into the lagoon’s delicate ecosystem and its remarkable inhabitants.

Stingrays, Sharks, Sea Turtles

Your adventure begins at the pier, where the turquoise waters invite you to set sail. A gentle cruise carries you across the shimmering lagoon to your first encounter: stingrays and reef sharks gliding gracefully in their natural habitat, a mesmerizing ballet beneath the surface. From there, the current becomes your guide as you drift through the lagoon’s vibrant biodiversity, moving alongside sea turtles and, if fortune smiles, the elegant eagle rays.

Sandbank Relaxation

The journey continues to an untouched sandbank, a jewel in the heart of the lagoon. Here, time seems to pause. Enjoy a light snack and refreshing drinks, swim in warm waters, or stroll barefoot on soft, white sand—a moment of pure serenity. As the day unfolds, the boat glides into one of Moorea’s most beautiful bays, where volcanic peaks rise dramatically against the sky. Keep watch for dolphins dancing in the distance, free and untamed, as the lagoon whispers its secrets.

Finally, the tranquil cruise back to the pier leaves you with a heart full of wonder and memories of Moorea’s magic—a day where nature embraced you, the ocean told its story, and science deepened your connection to this extraordinary world.
