More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off the boat as the reef breathes beneath you — warm, shallow water sliding past your ankles, the silhouette of Moorea’s jagged volcanic ridges rising like a worn spine behind the bays. The day stretches ten hours: skimming past Cook and Opunohu Bays, dropping anchor at a coral garden for snorkeling, and drifting into shallower lagoons where stingrays glide and blacktip reef sharks patrol the sand.

Use reef‑safe sunscreen

Bring a fitted snorkel mask
A well‑fitting mask prevents leaks and fogging—rentals may be available but bringing your own ensures comfort.

Ten hours on the water means frequent hydration, a wide‑brim hat, and UV‑protective clothing.

Protects skin while minimizing damage to coral and marine life.
Personal snorkel mask and snorkel
Ensures a comfortable fit and clearer views; rental gear may vary.
Water shoes or reef shoes
