Dive Equipment & Setup
Dive Area & Sites
French Polynesia offers some of the most spectacular open-ocean diving in the Pacific, with crystal-clear waters and dramatic channel dives that attract extraordinary concentrations of pelagic life. The Tuamotu Archipelago, particularly Rangiroa and Fakarava, is famous for its passes — natural channels where strong currents funnel hundreds of grey reef sharks, eagle rays, and barracuda into breathtaking walls of marine life. Divers can expect regular encounters with dolphins, manta rays, hammerhead sharks, and during the right season, tiger sharks patrolling the outer reef slopes. Fakarava's south pass is a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve where the density of grey reef sharks is among the highest recorded anywhere on earth. Visibility routinely exceeds 40 meters, and the coral formations are healthy and vibrant, making this region a paradise for underwater photography.

Insurance Recommendation
We strongly recommend all guests to purchase comprehensive dive accident insurance and trip cancellation insurance before departure. Dive accident insurance covers medical treatment, hyperbaric chamber costs, and emergency evacuation in the event of a diving incident. Trip cancellation insurance protects your financial investment, not only if you need to cancel or cut short your trip due to personal illness, injury, or other unforeseen circumstances, but also if the trip is postponed or cancelled by the operator due to severe weather, technical issues, or other operational reasons. In the unlikely event of operator insolvency, cancellation insurance can also help recover your payments. Please ensure your policies are valid for the entire duration of your trip and cover the planned activities.
Medical Form Required
A valid dive medical certificate or an accepted medical form is required for all guests on this vessel. You can submit a doctor's certificate confirming your fitness to dive, or complete and sign the medical form yourself if the form and operator permit self-declaration. If your answers or the operator's rules require medical clearance, a doctor's approval is mandatory; signing at your own risk does not replace it. Permission to dive remains subject to the operator's requirements. Download the form, complete it for each guest and upload the signed document in your booking area.
