★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,423 reviews · from $184Our pick

Spend about six hours on Bora Bora’s lagoon with a guide such as Tau, Rolly, Bobby, or Ari. Snorkel coral gardens, meet stingrays and blacktip sharks, then eat a local buffet on a motu with fish swimming below your table. Gear, towels, soft drinks, and pickup are included.

“Manu and the captain were truly exceptional, warm, attentive, and genuinely caring. Our youngest son had his arm in a cast, and the way they went above and beyond to make our family feel comfortable and special was unforgettable. They assisted us on and off the boat and even took our son out privately to snorkel so he could still experience the sharks and stingrays safely. That alone meant the world to us. From live music to incredible food right by the beach, literally with manta rays and fish swimming under the table, it was an unforgettable setting. The experience felt thoughtful and elevated in every detail. Unlike many tours…”

We were able to find decent chairs without having to book ahead of time.”

The reef spot was much better than the first spot and well worth the visit.”
