Wonderful tour - Fabulous tour between islands with visits and explanations about pearls, vanilla, rum, a little of what is produced in Polynesia. Wonderful lunch in the motu with possibility to repeat snorkeling. The most fantastic is the possibility of swimming with sharks, rays and more fish at the end. Super friendly captain, very helpful and super comfortable boat.

Exceptional day. - Exceptional day with Jimmy. His boat is very comfortable and he made us discover wonderful places, corals, multicolored fish, skates, sharks, anemones etc. He explained us a lot about the marine and terrestrial environment of Polynesia. Lunch on the motu was perfect. I recommend Blue Lagoon and his team. 👍👍👍

Unforgettable and beautiful - A beautiful day full of visits (pearl farm, vanilla grove, rum) and discovery of the seabed. Lunch is served on a motu and is delicious. Jimmy is very serious and considerate. He takes his time for sightseeing and doesn't rush us. We have time to enjoy every moment quietly and it's magical. I highly recommend

Great tour guide! - We loved our tour guide who was super helpful with my older parents making sure they felt safe getting in and out of the boat as well as translating anything from French to English. The rain is unpredictable so our tour guide also expertly navigated us to all the stops before the storm came!

Excursion not to be missed. - 8 May 2025 release
Our captain/guide named Mana was very pro. He has a very good knowledge of Polynesian life, the ocean and the lagoon. The visit to the pearl farm was the best of the 3 already visited on other islands. Nice organic vanilla grove. Rumerie, good but no tasting offered because it is a small business. Beachfront Jo DASSIN. Mana got in the water with us for snorkeling at the coral garden. Very interesting explanations about coral life, fish and other shellfish. The meal on the motu very hearty and varied. Very good atmosphere in our small group of 10. In the late afternoon, Mana brought us swimming with 5 or 6 beautiful sized black tip sharks.
Thank you, Mana. You were great.
We recommend this tour.

Day at the top - Superb day alongside Jimmy and his ultra comfortable boat.
Despite the capricious weather, he adapted the order of visits so that we were sheltered from the rain (pearl farm, vanilla) and soaked up the sun at the beautiful coral garden.
The small snack with fresh fruit on the boat as well as the meal on a motu were delicious.
And although the engine failure in the early afternoon delayed us in the program, he was able to find a boat to allow us to continue the day with one of his colleagues. We were able to finish with the visit of the distillery and then an unforgettable snorkeling with sharks.
We returned later than expected but we had the privilege of watching a splendid sunset from the boat.
I had booked the tour of Raiatea two days later, but the boat could not be repaired I got a refund very quickly.
A family business, working with small producers in Taha'a. It will be difficult for you to leave disappointed with your day!

Operator Canceled Night Before The Tour - We booked a tour for January 22nd nearly two months in advance. On January 20th, the operator messaged me asking if we were on a cruise ship, explaining that we were the only ones booked and suggesting we invite others.
I didn’t see the message until the next day (January 21st) since we were traveling from Tahiti to Raiatea and not constantly checking my phone on vacation. When I replied that we had flown into Raiatea, they informed us they were canceling the tour due to a lack of participants—this was the night before our scheduled trip.
I understand that tours need a minimum number of people to be profitable, but if they suspected they might cancel, they should have reached out earlier in the week. Travelers are required to cancel at least 24 hours in advance, and I believe the same rule should apply to tour operators.
Since we were only in Raiatea for two days, this full-day excursion was our main plan. They didn’t even offer to help us find an alternative. Fortunately, we managed to book another tour last minute, but I found their handling of the situation unprofessional and inconsiderate.
