We were picked up by Bob on the Polynesian canoe from our hotel to the meeting point to meet the rest of the group. We waited a good half hour before the rest arrived from other hotel locations and were then shipped off on a bigger Polynesian boat to 3 sites. The first was a spot in the Bora Bora... more

The actual Lagoonarium part is pretty small, with a couple of penned in areas that hold a variety of sea life including turtles, fish and a few sharks. But the trip there is a whole lot of fun, starting with "Bob" the Tahitian navigator of their motorized outrigger canoe and "Esteban" the ukulele-playing, multi-lingual narrator of the trip.

This trip was SOOOO cool. A little expensive maybe but you really get your money's worth. Go on the full day trip if you can afford it, the coral gardens and the shark and ray feeding are totally worth it and the lunch was pretty good too. I LOVED swimming with the sharks and these aren't just little reef sharks,... more

There we got on a boat with Steven and his "brothers". They were very happy people and provided signing entertainment. Our first stop was inside the Bora Bora reef... more

The Lagoonarium is well worth visiting for those who enjoy snorkelling. The people do well to look after you and explain the different fish, turtles, sharks and rays. You do not have to be a strong swimmer, just float on the water and let the gentle current take you through the various enclosures. Bring your own snorkel gear if you've... more

For our recent trip to Bora Bora, I booked the shark/ray feeding and lagoonarium tour through our travel agent. They offer a full or half day. We did the half day, but most others stayed for the full day that included lunch and more exploring at the lagoonarium. Even though we expected to have to take a boat shuttle from... more
