Moorea 6-Hour Snorkeling and Lunch Shared Tour

1.Moorea 6-Hour Snorkeling and Lunch Shared Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,758 reviews · from $138Our pick

Review of Moorea’s 6-hour snorkeling tour with sharks, rays, coral gardens, a motu lunch, Polynesian cooking, and cultural demonstrations.

“This was a great day overall. I will say that the motu lunch turned into most of the tour. We found ourselves waiting for the departure back to the hotel. Another couple on the tour agreed that it felt very long sitting there for lunch. Food was delicious though, and the tour guide was very kind and kept us safe!”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 461 reviews · from $174

Glide through Moorea’s coral gardens by sea scooter, spotting turtles, rays, sharks, and colorful fish on a small-group snorkeling tour.

“The experience was more than we could have ever hoped for! The guide and captain were knowledgeable and kind and welcoming. The sea scooters were easy to learn to operate and were essential to cover as much of the reef as we did. We are beyond grateful. From the reef, to the huge schools of fish, to the anemones, and coral types, and especially the sting rays who were so sweet and friendly, we had the time of our life. 10/10 recommend.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 376 reviews · from $323

Review of Bora Bora’s 6.5-hour jet ski, shark, stingray, and coral garden tour, with lunch, hotel pickup, tips, and honest value advice.

“Experience is split into two. Jet ski is separate from the shark and rays. A lot of us on the tour thought we would be jet skiing to different spots. But its a boat that take you to all the snorkle spots. Then you switch gears to jet skiis, and you are in a follow the leader type line so that you can have fun just riding.”
