Diving around Moorea:
The drama of Moorea's landscape continues below the sea with an infinite range of canyons, chasms, and promontories. Fish feeding is common here so divers are often surrounded by schools of small and large marine life. With a lack of strong currents, Moorea is perfect for beginners while the deeper canyons attract the more advanced divers.

Moorea: At 12 miles from Tahiti, the verdant mysticism of the "yellow lizard" flows forth from a shredded landscape that resembles a vast star-shaped garden branching out into eight valleys. Captain Cook's island has one of the most beautiful lagoons. Its turquoise waters reflect the sumptuous harmony of the underwater world where divers might meet turtles, leopard rays or even some scorpion fish amidst coral roses hosting many other species.

Rangiroa: Rangiroa, "the big sky" in the Puamotu language, is one of those atolls that one dreams about without really believing that it exists. One of those fantasy worlds at the door of Utopia when the imagination travels far, far away... but not far away enough however to represent this ribbon of islets fringed with coconut trees, gathered around a turquoise-blue lagoon that could enclose the whole island of Tahiti and whose depths shelter unusual marine life.
The perfect place to relax yourself, after unbelievable dives. You'll experience 6 dives with The Six Passengers center, in the most famous place for divers in French Polynesia.
