DIVE  SITES

Several sites on Moorea are suitable for novice divers, but the fish life is varied and exciting enough to thrill the most experienced divers. Unlike Tahiti's reefs, with their sheer drop-offs, Moorea's underwater topography is characterized by gently sloping reefs and generally shallower dives.

There is plenty of coral on Moorea, but coral is not the main attraction: it's the fish, and the friendly reef sharks are undeniably the star performers.

Although it is located on the ocean side of the reef, The Tiki is a calm, safe site for the beginning diver. The maximum depth is about 82 ft; on a calm day the visibility can exceed 200 ft. The fish life is astonishing. You'll swim through schools of snapper and yellow clouds of butterfly fish, see parrotfish and Picasso triggerfish, blacktip reef sharks, grey sharks, and more. Best of all, The Tiki is where divers of all levels can witness a shark feeding. The Tiki gets it name from the tiki statue that rests at the bottom of the sea--put there by a far-sighted dive center operator.

In addition to the friendly pelagics that give this site its name, Sting Ray World is also an ideal place to encounter whitetip sharks and eagle rays. The depth here ranges from 30 ft. to about 50 ft. Sting Ray World is ideal for snorkeling.

The Rays Corridor is perfect for beginners or refresher dives. The depth ranges from 15 to 60 ft., and the calm lagoon waters are alive with beautiful corals, reef fishes, eagle rays and whitetip sharks. 

Intermediate to Advanced Divers

Taotoi is a popular spot for all levels of divers. Just outside the reef across from the InterContinental Beachcomber Moorea Tahiti, Taotoi ranges from 30 to 75 ft. in depth. As with most dives on Moorea, the fish life is outrageous. Most days you will encounter dozens of sharks, several moray eels and an occasional Napoleon wrasse, in addition to the usual cast of characters--Moorish idols, tangs, butterfly fish, snapper, barracuda, and parrotfish.

The Opunohu Canyons radiate outward from the reef at 30-70 ft. and create great diving conditions when there is no swell. Expect to see blacktip sharks, moray eels, large triggerfish, and occasional sea turtles and Napoleon wrasses.

If you're an experienced diver with very good buoyancy control, you can explore The Rose Garden, a huge field of Montipora coral that stretches across the ocean floor at a depth range of 98 to 130 ft. The Rose Garden is one of the most photographed underwater features in French Polynesia.
