“Luna and Clem are awesome, the tour was highly personalized, and both the hosts took personal care. We are not good swimmers, they took us to a very shallow lagoon (you could stand ), and we saw sharks, petted sting rays. Luna went the extra mile to assure my spouse to get in the water with sting rays (as she does not swim). Another place was a little more deeper, we saw various fishes with pretty colors. They took us to a place, where there were more than 10 dolphins, the dolphins followed us and were going with the boat, it was amazing. The fruit platter and juices were very…”
Review of La Plage Tours’ private Bora Bora lagoon cruise, with snorkeling, rays, sharks, flexible stops, drinks, pickup, and practical tips.
“Teiva, our captain, provided us with an unforgettable experience. We were able to snorkel with giant manta rays, a family of eagle rays, stingrays, blacktip sharks, and fish in a beautiful coral garden. The manta rays were the highlight of the trip and easily the size of our entire boat. We were lucky that at all locations we were near only one other small group, despite traveling during peak season. Teiva was incredibly skilled and able to find the rays easily from the boat. Very thankful to see Bora Bora's marine life and the extra cost of the excursion was well worth it.”
