Tahiti - The Source Dive Site — French Polynesia
About Tahiti - The Source
A unique geological phenomenon on Tahiti's south coast where freshwater springs emerge from the volcanic rock on the reef slope, creating surreal visual distortions as fresh and salt water mix. Lemon sharks and stingrays frequent the sandy areas around the springs, while the surrounding reef is covered in healthy hard corals. This one-of-a-kind dive site offers an experience found nowhere else in Polynesia.
