Wonderful experience!

Our family of five (two adults, three kids 13, 11 and 7) had a wonderful time on the tour. It was fascinating to learn about the boat and its construction and we saw lots of amazing sites around the lagoon. The trip was a great experience for our family and we highly recommend it.

Enjoy laguna and sea under sail!

Young captains bring you above and beyond any expectation! It was morning journey through blue laguna with coming out to open sea. We swam with stingrays and black-tips sharks, visited under water sculptures garden, and swam in the shall water with thousands of small sparkling-blue fishes. We were witnessing the initiation of sail and those who would like could take captain place during the sailing. Tropical fruits and cold mint tea were just exactly what we needed. Pick-up and return to hotel is provided. Guys are doing great job! Highly recommend this tour to everybody!

Magique

Superbe expérience. Nous avons passé une matinée extraordinaire sur le lagon : tortues, raies, requin, statuts. Nous avons pu hisser la voile et naviguer nous-même la pirogue. Les prestataires, 2 frères passionnés et surtout nés à Moorea (et ça fait toute la différence) vous ferons découvrir les moindres recoins du lagon, l'histoire de Moorea à travers des annecdoctes. N'hésitez pas à reserverser cette sortie magique

Un magnifique tour du lagon à bord d'une pirogue à voiles : à faire absolument ! L'initiation à la voile et les histoires de nos skippers ont bercé notre navigation dans le lagon aux eaux turquoises remplies de raies, requins, poissons et tikis, pour finir sur un magnifique coucher de soleil.
