★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 166 reviews · from $120

Explore Moorea’s lagoon after dark on a small-group night snorkel with gear, guides, snacks, and sightings of octopus, rays, eels, and more.

“We would highly recommend Moorea Dark Waters! It was such a cool experience to snorkel at night, and our guide made sure that we covered a lot of ground in the 1.5 hours that we were out snorkeling. We saw rays, sharks, an eel, a puffer fish, a lion fish, and a lot of reef fish. We went at a good pace, and our guide made sure that everyone stayed together. They provided wetsuits and snorkeling equipment for us to use. Night snorkeling is an experience like no other, and we would highly recommend this tour!”

LUXURY Catamaran Bora Bora : The Sunset Escape

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 129 reviews · from $267

Review of Bora Bora’s 2-hour luxury sunset catamaran, with hotel pickup, Otemanu views, drinks, snacks, crew details, and practical tips.

“Pros: BEAUTIFUL boat and super friendly crew. Cons: Did not match the description when booking. No sparkling wine was served. 13 people were booked when it advertised a max of 8. This made the front seating space feel a bit crowded. The cruise itself was lack luster. Felt like we didn’t travel very far and then just sat floating in circles. Headed back promptly at sunset with little to no communication from the captain. Very expensive for what you got. Much better excursions available. Would not recommend for the price.”

“This promised to be a wonder 34th anniversary night. The collection from our hotel was prompt,skipper handed us sealed tray of fruit which remained sealed. He was to take us on a sunset cruise but due to his fear of rain we were taken to port and stood under a canopy for 40mins where he cracked open one bottle of fiz for 8 to share. After some time one of the passengers suggested we should get back onto the water as it had not rained a drop so he got us on board and took us to St James cafe we were there roughly 70mins ahead of time. He said…”
