Boating on Tahiti

Tahiti’s lagoon and reef passes are the starting point for trips along the coast or across the channel to Moorea, about 17 km to the west. A typical day pairs Moorea’s bays and its stingray sandbanks with snorkelling, or explores the wild shores of Tahiti Iti.

Where to go by boat

  • Moorea

    Jagged green island across the channel from Tahiti, with a wide lagoon.

  • Opunohu Bay

    Quieter of Moorea’s two deep bays, framed by steep peaks.

  • Cook’s Bay

    Moorea’s livelier bay, cutting deep into the island like a tropical fjord.

  • Vaipoiri Cave

    Cave on the wild Fenua Aihere coast of Tahiti Iti, reached by boat and a short forest walk.

Tip: The channel to Moorea is open ocean, so check the forecast before crossing; in the austral winter big southern swells reach Teahupo’o and Tahiti Iti.
