Moana Adventure Tours | Romantic Tours | Keawai is a Bora‑Bora based operator offering private and group marine and cultural experiences in the lagoon around Bora Bora, Îles Sous‑le‑Vent. The company runs private boat charters (including Cap Camarat 25‑foot and 17‑foot options with a captain), sunset cruises, multi‑hour lagoon cruises, eco safaris to see rays and sharks, guided snorkeling and coral discovery trips, guided jet ski tours, and combined land‑and‑sea adventures such as 4x4 safaris paired with jet skis or eco safaris.
Guides and captains provide on‑water leadership for couples, honeymooners, families, and small groups; several trips specify a personal captain or guide to lead a private itinerary. Many experiences emphasize marine respect and conservation — bio‑friendly snorkeling, coral garden visits, and interpretive insights about Polynesian culture and marine life are included in eco safari and guided coral discovery descriptions.
