Scuba diving in Manihi Tairapa pass

Description of the activity

Diving between the immensity of the Pacific Ocean and the access to the calm waters of the Manihi lagoon is a priceless experience.

Good visibility and ideal water temperature are guaranteed.

The most popular diving spot is the Tairapa Channel near the airport, in the island’s capital. The constant flow of water between the two ecosystems favors an unexpected explosion of marine life.

Useful information

You can dive at any time of the year and encounter the species typical of the Tuamotu islands such as manta rays, gray and white-tip sharks, fat sleepers and giant wrasse, schools of barracuda, turtles and an endless array of other species.

There is a company that arranges diving excursions on the island and also provides accommodation, although it is not necessary to stay there to use their diving center.
