The engine slows, sails drift in shadow, and the lagoon opens blue and molten around you—Cook and Opunohu bays fanning out like open palms. On a private six-hour charter off Moorea you move through water that dares you to dive: turquoise shallows, coral bommies, and channels where blacktip sharks and rays glide as if bored of land.

The engine slows, sails drift in shadow, and the lagoon opens blue and molten around you—Cook and Opunohu bays fanning out like open palms. On a private six-hour charter off Moorea you move through water that dares you to dive: turquoise shallows, coral bommies, and channels where blacktip sharks and rays glide as if bored of land.
This coastline carries volcanic history: jagged ridgelines rising from lava flows carved by millennia of uplift and erosion, creating steep bays prized by Polynesian navigators and later European explorers like Captain Cook. Local life still orients around the sea—families fishing, coconut groves shading small villages, and restaurants serving poisson cru and grilled reef fish with views of the lagoon.
Expect guided snorkel stops over coral gardens where green sea turtles feed and schools of reef fish color the water. Seasonal visitors include dolphins year-round and humpback whales most commonly from August to November. The private format (2–6 people) gives flexibility to time swims and shore lunches at waterfront cafés such as Coco Beach or Taoahere when available.
Practical edge: snorkeling equipment and bottled water are provided; wear reef-safe sunscreen, a rashguard, and reef shoes for shallow entries. The trip suits most fitness levels but is not recommended for pregnant guests or those with serious back/heart conditions. Bring a waterproof phone bag for photos, cash for optional tips, and plan for a relaxed six-hour window that includes boat time, swim stops, and a sit-down lunch with drink options.
Yes; the tour includes use of snorkeling equipment—bring your own mask if you prefer a custom fit.

Yes—this private boat accommodates 2–6 people and is family-friendly, but infants must sit on an adult's lap and children should be supervised in the water.
You can receive a full refund if you cancel at least 24 hours before departure; cancellations within 24 hours are not refundable.
