Experience an unforgettable moment underwater in French Polynesia with a sunset exploration dive in the Tikehau Pass!

Do you have an Open Water Diver certification or equivalent in scuba diving? Experience an unforgettable moment underwater in French Polynesia with a sunset exploration dive in the Tikehau Pass!

The end of the day is the perfect time to observe the underwater fauna in a different atmosphere to daylight, particularly as the predators begin to hunt. And it is also the perfect time to dive in the Tikehau Pass at sunset! As the light diminishes underwater, large fish such as tuna and humphead wrasse, as well as sharks, emerge from the depths and become active - the perfect opportunity to increase your chances of spotting and observing them!

This sunset exploration dive at Tikehau will take you to the atoll's only pass, an exceptional dive site rich in biodiversity (unless weather conditions force the guides to change the dive site). You will be able to admire a multitude of species of fish, and if you are lucky, you might even come across a manta ray! All you have to do is dive to a depth of 20 metres, where visibility is still very good - a depth only accessible to divers with at least Level 1 (or equivalent, such as the PADI Open Water Diver).

So what are you waiting for to take advantage of the optimal scuba diving conditions offered by the end of the day in French Polynesia? Book your sunset exploration dive in the Tikehau Pass now!
