Overview

Privatize our boat to observe whales in their natural environment in compliance with regulations, supervised by a team concerned with your safety and animal welfare.
We will share our knowledge and passion for the Polynesian marine environment and will do our utmost to ensure you have an unforgettable experience.
Although unpredictable, it is not uncommon in Moorea to contemplate whales with their calf, love parades, jumps, pectoral fin strikes, caudals out of the water.
These observations of the vessel do not require any particular physical ability.
If the behavior of the animals and the sea conditions allow, we can offer people over 15 comfortable with fins, mask and snorkeling framed by our Aquatic Guide with these giants of the oceans.
You may also have the chance to meet dolphins, globicles, turtles, skates and sharks.
