Captain Taina's Turtle Club: A Lagoon Adventure in Moorea

Embark on an unforgettable journey into the heart of Moorea's lagoon with Captain Taina's Turtle Club, a premier boat tour agency. For over 20 years, Captain Taina and her family have shared the wonders of Moorea's marine ecosystem, offering visitors a unique and sustainable way to experience the island's natural beauty. The adventure begins in a turtle sanctuary, where you can swim alongside these gentle creatures and learn about local conservation efforts. The tour continues with opportunities to observe eagle rays, reef sharks, and a vibrant array of fish amidst stunning coral formations. Discover the submerged Tiki sculptures, which hold cultural significance, before relaxing on a sandbank where you can encounter stingrays and blacktip reef sharks in a safe and respectful environment. Choose between a traditional boat or the unique glass-bottomed Honu Kea, perfect for those who prefer to stay dry while still enjoying the underwater views. The experience culminates on Captain Taina's private motu (islet), where you'll savor a delicious local meal featuring fresh island ingredients, including Tahitian raw fish salad and grilled meats. Learn about Polynesian cuisine with a poisson cru cooking lesson and enjoy the flavors of Moorea's rum and pineapple juice.
