★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 968 reviews · from $143Our pick

Cruise Bora Bora’s lagoon in a covered boat with up to eight people, stopping at manta ray and eagle ray sites, coral gardens, and possibly shark and stingray areas. Guides such as Umi, Niko, Noé, and Kevin are praised for patient instruction and close attention in the water.

“Kevin was our guide and we felt so lucky to get him because he knows the waters well and respects the ocean and creatures within it! We saw manta rays, sting rays and eagle rays. The rainbow reef was the most beautiful reef we’ve ever encountered. Kevin was extremely gentle and patient with our 8&9 year old boys. They felt safe and supported while on this amazing adventure. Bonus points were listening to Kevin play on his ukulele during some of our trip. His voice was magical! 10/10 all the way around. Thank you Kevin for making our bora bora trip even more magical with this experience”
