EXPEDITION OVERVIEW

On arrival to Mo’orea, you will be picked up at the ferry to our villa where you will have the rest of the day to settle in and meet the entire team.

There will be a total of 5 days on the water in which one of the days we will spend half of the day exploring the land. Mo’orea has a jaw dropping landscape that you definitely can’t miss out on.

On one of the days we can wake up extra early and stop by the sharks & rays lagoon to take pictures before the crowd comes in. We will have the place all to ourselves with the morning light rays dancing underneath the surface!

After finishing our whale excursions each day, we will have some time to reset and you guys have the option to join me to some of my favorite sunset spots. Trust me, it’ll be worth it!

A light breakfast will be prepared for you in the morning. We will enjoy our delicious lunch on the lagoons during our tours. A local Tahitian styled dinner will be prepared in our own expedition house to close out the day.

As for the last day, check out will be at 10am and transportation to the ferry in Mo’orea will be included.

Our Accommodation

We will be staying in a beautiful Tahitian style house right on the lagoon. Our beach front house will be equipped with kayaks where you can enjoy during sunset. Since we are located on the west side of the island, we will get a stunning view of the sunset! Dinner will also be prepared and served in the comfort of our own home.

Rooms are shared, each guest with their own bed. All rooms will have air conditioning.
