About your trip

Join us for a week of diving in this French Polynesian paradise! Frolic with dolphins and drift through clouds of colorful fish into stunning lagoons full of marine life. You'll never want to leave...

Rangiroa: June 30-July 7, 2026

Rangiroa is the largest atoll in French Polynesia and the second one in the world: it could contain in its center the whole island of Tahiti. Rangiroa is a natural aquarium, ranked by Jacques Cousteau as the most beautiful and the richest site in the world. Divers will find “clouds” of surgeons, mullet, wrasses, ballets of manta rays, schools of jackfish or barracudas, sharks of all types (grey, white or black tip, hammerhead) and dolphins. 

We'll spend 7 nights at Hotel Maitai Rangiroa, located on the lagoon between the passes of Avatoru and Tiputa. We have 6 days of 2-tank boat dives scheduled with the option to add a 3rd. Breakfast and 2-course dinner each day is included, as well as your domestic flights between Tahiti and Rangiroa.

Minimum dive certification/experience: As the diving here can be deeper and more challenging, each diver must have a minimum of Advanced Open Water Diver certification (or equivalent) and at least 50 dives. Enriched air/Nitrox certification required.

Travel

You should plan to arrive on Tahiti, the main island of French Polynesia, by June 30 when we'll head to Rangiroa! After 7 nights on Rangiroa, we'll fly back to Tahiti on July 7, at which point you can head home or visit another beautiful island.

Please contact us before booking flights!
