Schedules are set the day before for the next day in order to operate at best the various atmospheres of the pass, including drift dives when possible | Dive sites are between 20 and 30 minutes away by boat, excepting a few locations in the Lagoon. | We also offer snorkeling expeditions, with fins, mask, and snorkels . This activity, which does not require a high level of experience and is open to all, allows non-divers to discover the undersea charms of this miniature atoll. |
Tuheiva pass: This dive takes place with the incoming tidal current. Manta rays are often there to greet the current, as well as huge schools of pompanos. A little further in the Pass, you can observe about a dozen or so whitetip reef sharks nestled together under a rocky outcropping. | Right corner: nice wall rich of schools of fish, barracudas, caranx, lutjans, surgeon fishes, etc... | Left corner: Amidst the napoleon fish, the majestic manta rays come to Mara to rid themselves of small parasites by little cleaner fish. Mara is also a good place to run into whitetip Reef sharks (Carcharrhinus albimarginatus). | Turtle refuge: Escorted by dolphins, our boat will anchor above a dip in the sea floor used as a nocturnal refuge by sea turtles. This dip in the reef allows the diver to observe numerous species in a small area. This is an easy dive in relatively shallow waters (18 meters), but unmatched for the diversity of species observed. | Raira Cave: Formed by a long fault in the coral reef, Raira Cave shelters many grey sharks. Barracudas and hundreds of snappers are also present. | Hina' s Bell: This is a deep dive (45 meters), restricted to experienced divers. This is where you can observe the big fish, such as tunas, marlins, or whitetip reef sharks. | The pearl farm: only regular diving in the lagoon is THE cleaning station manta rays Tikehau! See more mantas simultaneously a few meters from us, on a sandy bottom, parading with their remora under the action of cleaning wrasses, emotion is every time the appointment is very accessible to beginners!! All within a few meters deep, this exceptional diving. |
