Signature Dives

ANAU’S FAFAPITI
Anau is Bora Bora’s most famous dive site, as it's a cleaning station for manta rays (Fafapiti). These gentle giants are 5 to 12 feet in length, and often come within arm’s reach of our divers.
TOOPUA
This incredible dive takes place south of the island within the inner lagoon. Divers can drift while looking for spotted eagle rays between huge blocks of massive coral and sandy valleys. The dive ends at an intricate coral garden.
TAPU
Located just out of the reef, this dive is all about seeing sharks. In addition to a bounty of blacktip reef sharks, you may also spot lemon sharks up to ten feet long – and the occasional whale during the season. Swim among schools of fish at depths of up to 60 feet.
