Tahiti Lagoon Paradise, Punaauia

My husband and I went on a snorkeling tour with Benoit a few days ago and had the BEST time! It was our very first snorkeling experience. Benoit took the time to teach us everything, demonstrate how to use the equipment, and helped us during the entire tour. We are not the strongest swimmers, so it helped that we were able to borrow all equipment (including snorkel vests and noodles). He was very patience and calm when we were very nervous. We loved that this was a PRIVATE experience - it helped us get more comfortable in the water and enjoy the tour to the fullest. We saw incredible coral reef and sealife. The highlight was that Benoit took so many beautiful photos of us and the many things we saw. They are the perfect souvenir for us to remember our first snorkeling experience. If we are ever back in Tahiti, we will book a longer tour with Benoit. The pricing for all tours is also very reasonable for the type of experience you get. Don't hesitate - book with Benoit now! You will not regret it!

Went for a 3 hour cruise & snorkelling trip with Benoît, it was most incredible experience ever! No hassle with tour groups or big crowds, but a private stunning tour that was worth every penny and more!

This tour is simply TERRIFIC! Fully private and comfortable with amazing sites! SO many sea turtles, dolphins, and variety of marine life amongst beautiful coral. I read on Wikipedia that Tahiti gets the majority of it's electricity from hydroelectric stations on the island, but they are missing an untapped source of energy in the wonderful Captain Benoit! He is a kind, knowledgeable, funny guide (despite what the dolphins might tell you) with so much excitement for your excursion! He took us to two locations and, besides being our tour guide on and off the boat, took over 250 pictures of our trip for us! I cannot wait to return to Tahiti during whale season and snorkel with the good Captain Benoit once again.

Captain Benoit was an amazing guide! My husband and I went out on his private snorkeling/sunset cruise to celebrate our anniversary and it was fantastic! We started out the trip with a snorkeling session around the reef. He was very knowledgeable and showed us all kinds stuff. He also took photos with his Gopro while we swam and shared them with us after the trip! Then we watched the sunset from the boat, which was absolutely beautiful. We enjoyed our time with him and would absolutely take another trip with him the next time we visit the island!

Captain Benoit is the best! You can trust him even if you’ ve never snorkelled before. He’ll explain everything and show you the magical corals and life in and around them. Had an amazing time, thank you!!! 🌺
